Check off your Bucket List THIS year

I'm writing this post at the beginning of January, 2026. But really, it applies any time you read it.

It’s 2026!

When I was a kid back in the last century (damn…that makes me sound like I grew up with the pilgrims), I could never have imagined a number that went so high! That was the stuff of sci-fi movies. Yet, here we are.

And since it’s a brand new year, it’s time for a brand new mantra. This year’s choice will guide us positively, progressively, playfully through the next 365 days…one powerful Baby Step at a time.

BABY STEP

Last year we “thrived.” Despite countless setbacks we endured and pivots we took and tweaks we made, we got through it with grace and gratitude and growth. So, with all that hard work and dedication we put into making our lives even better (#Chakra shake-up), isn’t it time we lighten up a little?

It’s time to celebrate our accomplishments!

It’s time to open ourselves up to amazing possibilities, to golden opportunities and to more magical moments - not just on Mondays! It’s time to step into that awesome version of ourselves we know we can be.

In fact, let this be the year we check off at least one item from our Bucket List. And, if you don’t already have one written up, do that right NOW! Let’s allow our imagination to run wild then we can watch as the Universe whisks us away on the adventure of a lifetime.

And, we’ll do it together. I’ll keep reminding you to give yourself a high five for your commitment to living your best life.

And, as usual, I’ll share tips, tools and techniques to help us do that, along with daily affirmations via my DDD messages. If you haven’t already done so, be sure to sign up HERE so you don’t miss a thing!

Now, let’s test drive that new DDD mantra as today’s Baby Step. Repeat after me, as often and as enthusiastically as you can:

I am ready to GET MY KICKS IN ’26!!!
