The Chinese Year of the Horse begins on January 30th. 

My son informed me that he had learned this in school. We promptly looked it up on the internet to get some more information about what this would mean.

The Horse year is a time of fast victories, unexpected adventure, and surprising romance. It is an excellent year for travel, and the more far away and off the beaten path the better. Energy is high and production is rewarded. Decisive action, not procrastination, brings victory. But you have to act fast in a Horse year. Read more…

Look at that! An excellent year for travel…Great, cos I love to travel and we are already planning a family trip in the Summer. Fast victories? Wonderful…we all want those. Unexpected Adventure…What fun! Surprising Romance?…A chance to re-fall in love with my loved one 🙂

But I am truly loving the last parts of that quote –

Production is rewarded – That’s it!!! Keep doing the work. You WILL be rewarded…works every time! The only way you will lose out on the reward, is if you quit. Remember the saying; Winners don’t quit, and Quitters don’t win.

Decisive action, not procrastination, brings victory – I LOVE this!!!! Even though I knew that it was an unhealthy relationship, Procrastination was a long time friend of mine. But I am happy that I can say WAS in that sentence. Experience taught me time and again that procrastination ALWAYS…not sometimes, but ALWAYS made me lose out. I began to make active changes last year, but 2014 brings decisive action to the forefront for me. I threw away fear and everything that comes with it, including Mr. Procrastination himself, and I am taking leap after leap of Faith…Decisive and massive action….and looking forward to the VICTORY!!!

So don’t sit back and wait for something exciting to happen…BE that exciting thing yourself 🙂 Get in the Saddle! Let’s go!

Love and Blessings.
