2014 has been quite a year.
A year of new. New company developments for both companies. New clients and new relationships within existing clients. New Product ideas – with so little time to focus. And new partnership learnings, how we work together and let culture drive our business without getting in the way of our business.
On the home front, it’s been a year of change. We’ve been challenged with changes in jobs and income. Always struggling to downsize our lives while supporting our children and our ambitions for a lifestyle of our choosing – which precludes debt of any kind.
And on the happiness and reality spectrum, we are thankful every day for our wonderful family and friends, for our health and the health of loved ones around us. And we are dealing with the aging group of 40-somethings who are faced more and more with stories of chemo entering the picture. That part really sucks.
If I could sum up all of my 2014 highs and lows in a song, the one song that comes to mind is Nick of Time by Bonnie Raitt. The idea of how fast time flies, how aging creeps up and we stare at lines on our faces in the mirror that weren’t there before, how every decision can impact the timeline of our lives.
As Dan Gilbert says in his Ted Talk, The Psychology of our Future Self, the one thing that’s constant in our lifetime is change. The person we are right now is not necessarily the person we’ll be in 10, 20, 30 or 40 years.
