Well, 2020 is off to a rough start.  Nevertheless, we must push on, besides what do we really have to complain about we still have half of the year to get ‘er done, we are still above ground, and we have a future to look forward to.  Your goals may have been thwarted, slowed, or brought to an abrupt halt and so what.  So what?

Really, so what?  What are you going to do about it?  What are you going to do next?  How are you going to take control of your future?  You don’t need any cheese with your whine, no not you.  

“The phoenix must burn to emerge.” – Janet Fitch

We are burning baby, oh we are burning only so that we can emerge stronger.  The question then isn’t are you going to emerge, but WHAT are you going to emerge as?  What is the stronger, better, braver, (insert adjective of choice) version of you?  

Time to get out the ol’ pen and paper.  Recalibrate yourself, your life, and where you are going.  Write down all of your goals.  Write down the specific actions you must take to achieve them.  Spend this time on yourself to understand what you want and how you are going to get there.  You have a handy-dandy reset point on July 4 which marks the beginning of the second half of the year.  Use it wisely.  

We have had quite the shake-up in 2020.  Now it is time to settle in, plot your course, and ship out.
