I WILL NOT BE AFRAID TO KEEP REINVENTING MYSELF
GUIDING AFFIRMATIONS FOR THE NEW YEAR
I am dedicated to keep reinventing myself as long as I can.
I will keep living on purpose, not thoughtlessly, wastefully or cowardly!
With God's help, I am open to doing things I have never imagined doing.
No matter how severe the storms, I know that I am safe and they will eventually pass.
I used this hymn at my first Mass.
I have sung this hymn on all forty-seven anniversaries.
I will sing it again for the forty-eighth anniversary this coming May.
I can choose safety and familiarity and shrivel up emotionally and spiritually or I get out into the fray and the storm and live a life of exhilaration, excitement and engagement. .
Fear is a factor, but it must never be allowed to run my life.
It must be stood up to and talked down.
Fear of failure does not mean I will actually fail. Fear is just a response that can be overridden.
Mediocrity, as a response to fear, should never be an option for me.
My early life has prepared me for the ministry that God has given me!
I have proven that I am stronger than I feel and more courageous than I thought.
My mortality is a fact, but today I choose to live the very best I can.
I have made contingent plans for dying, but till then, I will keep making plans for living.
My life keeps getting better and better with God's help and with my intentional efforts.
I was born to be a pioneer, an entrepreneur and a builder. When I acknowledge that, and proceed without fear, great things happen.
I will never give in and never give up as long as I am alive.
I am filled with gratitude and wonder at how blessed I have been. Who could have imagined?
I open my hands and heart for more, but I also remember that
to whom much is given, much will be required.
