As another year comes to an end, this year, 2010 will go down as one of the most challenging years. And yet one of the most rewarding.
Challenging from a business perspective as we continue to grow our company in a not-so-friendly economic climate.
Equally challenging is being a parent of two young children transitioning into their teenage years and all that comes with that.
But if I am proud of anything that happened in 2010, it is that in spite of the crazy economy and the pressures of family and business, we kept it together no matter what.
And to be honest, there were times in 2010 it was not that easy.
I think of the many households and families who are struggling financially, or with health issues, or having problems with their kids, spouses, or dealing with taking care of their elderly family members, and it tears me up. I have never seen so many people hurting like I did in 2010. Or maybe I am just more aware than I have ever been.
All I do know is that I am so grateful for my health, both mentally and physically. I am so happy for all the people in my life and especially those who helped me, reached out to me when I needed them most, and even those who challenged me to step up my game and dared me to attain even higher goals.
I feel so loved, honored, and immensely joyous. I looking forward to 2011 with much hope, much expectation and the outlook is a good one. Come no matter what in 2011, I'm ready.
Thank you 2010!
