First Quarter: Complete

Ten weeks ago (so not quite the start of the year, which started bumpily) I was feeling pretty low and when I realised it was ten weeks to the start of April and the Easter break, I committed to see what I could do to turn things around in that time. At the beginning, each week seemed to go so slowly, but the last three or four have just sped by. I didn’t really have much of a process or a vision for this, but I did everything I could to follow the positive vibes when and where they appeared and this resulted in an overhaul of my eating habits, meal planning, cooking, being much more organised at home, having better elements in my daily routine to choose from, being more productive creatively, sleeping a more regular schedule, and learning to connect spiritually in new ways.

Now the spring has well and truly come and those grim winter days are long gone (I don’t know about anyone else but I felt truly lost over the winter - ultimately in a helpful way but it wasn’t particularly fun!) and it seems with each day and hour even that I’m coming back to myself, stepping into my power and being more deliberate about what I want to make in the world.

So some questions for today as we embark on the next month and the next quarter and the happy run to midsummer’s day:

• Who do you see yourself becoming by the end of June (or the solstice if that’s more meaningful to you)? How do you see your life changing?

• What can you take from what you’ve learnt so far this year to embed in your daily life/routine as an improvement?

• What’s driving you now? If it’s different from what was driving you at the start of the year then, how? What resources does this drive need?
