It’s a new year!

It’s a new year!  I love January because it’s all about new beginnings.  It’s as though all the turmoil of the previous year has been washed away and I approach the new year with  fresh perspective, fresh hope, and fresh motivation to be the best Tilu I can be.  January is the month in which I am unapologetically self-absorbed and quite frankly, I love it.

I love thumbing through spiritual & self-help books looking for new ideas on how to have more peace in my life, how to have better boundaries, how to have a 4-Hour Work Week, and how to stop being excited about every deal I see on Groupon.  I pore over health magazines and figure out which new supplements I’m going to start taking therapeutic levels of and which new exercises I’m going to try.  Is Tracey Anderson’s Metamorphosis worth it or is the class I take at the gym with Lisa enough?

January is the most delicious month because I nourish all those parts of myself that tend to take a back burner for the rest of the year.  It’s taken me years, but I finally realize that taking care of me first, enables me to give myself more fully to the Foundation projects and all the other things that I have on my plate.

So here’s to a month of self-absorption!  Enjoy!
