The arrival of a new year signals a new beginning.

Old habits, old thought processes, old strategies must be left behind.

A new growth spurt must begin in an effort to move forward.

Sadly, some old friends and coworkers must be left behind as well.

The new year has to be approached with a new vision for the future.

A vision that can’t be realized while holding on to those still stuck in their comfort zone.

The year 2017 has to mean the end of not living up to potential and living as God has planned.

The year 2017 means letting go of all that harms us, and living a life fulfilled.

The year 2017 holds for it much promise.

The key is being prepared to reach it.

No  matter how high the stakes, and no matter what obstacles appear.

2017 is a time of rebirth.

2017 will be the best year ever.
