Picking up where we left off in November, examining opportunities that often are the byproduct of difficult moments - I invite you to lean into the energy that comes with 2025, the Year of the Snake. Snakes are associated with wisdom, intuition, strategic growth, charm, elegance, and transformation.
Like a snake, shed your skin or what no longer serves the best you by pushing yourself hard, doing things where you're vacillating how am I doing something this crazy to damn this is amazing! You owe it to yourself to do the things that make you go up a level, grow, and become a better version of you.
This means (for me) not sitting on my bum any longer because the never-ending stream of Winter flu season germs left me too tired, while still working too much that I deviated from my routine to offset with proper fitness, self-care, and rest/downtime. I failed to use the tools and methods I know too well to ensure that I don't slide. Next thing I know, I’ve slipped too far and am a lower/weaker/compromised version that’s just not up to my potential self.
What’s the risk you ask? The risk is keeping ourself from enjoying our most maximum life, possibilities, friends, insights, etc. - not to mention you won't have your ass kicked next time you do the fun thing! Speaking from (recent) experience where my lazy winter hibernation mode wasn't doing me any favors during our latest adventure climb!
Thing of yourself as a pinball machine, if some parts are stuck or never flip open, you're never going to get to bonus or to score... Just make sure you keep the machine well-oiled, so all our parts are working optimally!
Let’s kick 2025 in the cojones and go get what you deserve!
We are here for you, always in all ways. - Jessica and the BPR team
