From the Heart: Proactive vs Reactive

It’s a new year and that means new beginnings, new opportunities and new things to look forward to. One of my personal goals, and one of the goals of the magazine, is to be come more proactive versus reactive.

There are so many things coming at us when dealing (and living) a special life, but I think we become more reactive than proactive. So this year, let’s hope we can all become proactive!! We have excellent articles on how to organize, not only a filing cabinet, but also your own personal calendar; how to plan for the future
and how to create better organization in your house. Creating “less clutter’, in general, in our homes, for example, might just create better behavior in all of us! As always, my intention is to hopefully share information with all of you so that we ALL might learn more, understand more, and help more.

I trust your 2015 is what you need it to be.

From me, to you Happy New Year!
