2020 – The Best Year of My Life: So Far

My Master Key Experience 2020/21: Year 2, Week 13

We are what we focus on and I decided wholeheartedly to focus on The Abundance of Positives that happened this past year. And I am so grateful for all of them.

I was made redundant in March and I’m extremely grateful because it allowed me to concentrate on what I want to do, not something that society or somebody else thinks I should do. 

I hardly watched TV all year and I even stopped listening to the radio. I simply wanted to cut as much negativity and drama out of my life so I could focus on building a more positivity bias within myself for my own personal growth and to help achieve my purpose in life. And it’s working.

The home schooling was great in 2020. I gained so much more valued time with my family. Now my boys ask me nearly every day “what are we gonna do for you and me time today dad?” I try my best to keep it up (with Cats in the Cradle singing in the back of my mind) :–)

I continue my daily routine including yoga twice a day and now I find myself getting rid of my inversion table that I used to use for my sore back. I’ve also been reading the confidence builder 2 to 3 times a day to myself. I happened to look in the mirror the other day and thought my posture was actually better and coincidentally (or not) somebody complimented me on my posture soon after. I’m not only standing taller because of the yoga, but the more confidence I have as well. Of course I am, it makes sense.

Other virtues and habits I also improved on this past year is more acceptance, forgiveness, responsibility, defencelessness and having no opinion.

I have also created brilliant value adding habits into my daily routine including not looking at my phone for the first hour and a half in the morning and the last hour in the evening, instead I replace this time with positive readings, meditation and affirmations that sink into my subconscious mind in theta state. It works. Good stuff in, good stuff out. Shit in, shit out. What do you want?

Day by day, step by step, one bite of the elephant at a time, I persist and I succeed.

To top it all off, I’m linked with some of the most beautiful people around the world to share this journey with.

Thank you to our Global Heroes Marco Polo group and to all other beautiful people in the Master Key Experience. What a journey. I cannot go without being grateful for my beautiful supporting family as well.

All of the above is what happened to me “internally” mainly, but when you look around there is also an abundance of positive things that happened on the outside. Mother nature for one, really appreciated us not polluting her as much this past year. We witnessed that. This past year has been an eye opener and through many diversities, great things happen. It just depends on what you want to focus on.

2021, Bring it On!

Onwards and Upwards people 🙂
