Dec 31 2025 - Let Go

Picture taken of the Bow River Tributary fast flowing water by J. Hirst

Have you ever read something that felt so true that it just zinged through your body?  It happened to me on December 28 2025 when I read the following words from Reid Tracy, CEO of Hay House Publishing.  He talks about how he learned to let things go.  This is my wish for each of you for 2026.  Let the things go that do not matter.  

Here are the words that jolted me.

 Every year around this time, I do something a little different. I don’t write resolutions, and I don’t make a vision board. Instead, I make a “Let Go” list. 

And this year, thanks to Mel Robbins and her book 

The Let Them Theory, I’ve been thinking a lot more deeply about what belongs on that list. 

If you’re not familiar with Let Them, the idea is simple:

• If someone wants to doubt you, let them. 
• If someone wants to leave, let them. 
• If someone doesn’t see your value, let them. 

Mel says the key to peace is releasing the need to control what was never yours to carry in the first place. — excerpt from Reid Tracy, CEO of Hay House Publishing, link https://links.emails.hayhouse.com/servlet/MailView?ms=NzUzMjczODES1&r=MTgyMjM2NzMyOTY2S0&j=Mjk4MTM3MDcwMgS2&mt=1&rt=0

Life Is Balanced

The poster says:

For everything you have missed, you have gained something else; And for everything you gain, you lose something else.  It is about your outlook towards life.  You can either regret or rejoice.  - Ralph Waldo Emerson

********************************

You choose the pace of the balance in your life.  Choose wisely. 

Blessings,

Judy

A Full Life

 

The poster says:

Eat better. Run more. Lift more. Sleep earlier. Wake up earlier.  Make a good breakfast.  drink water. Read books.  Talk less. Listen more.  Open your eyes.  Love better.  Feel deeper. Be happy.  Experience life.  - Author not known.

As we move closer to the start of 2026, many of us will begin to make lists of New Year’s resolutions or wishes for the New Year.  The poster above is a wonderful list to start your resolutions. 

Each year, I do a list… 101 wishes for the upcoming year.  You can read my post about it from 2023 at https://www.lightstationwisdom.com/2023/01/101-wishes-for-new-years-day-2023.html.

This year, I started early and so far, I have 61 items on my list.  I will add some of these ideas from the poster.  I really like:  open your eyes, and love better.

Many blessings,

Judy
