“Deadlines Are Meant To Die”–Anonymous

At some moment, my mind just made this statement: “Oh wow! Its 2012, the last twelve months was swift.”  At the same time, I was recalling all that happened and those that did not happen that year (although, I would have wanted them to happen).

A “practical illusion” has grounded me that within a 12-month timeframe, deadlines are to be submitted and goals are achieved. This attitude gives me the motivation to accomplish things. This is a practical mindset that I should cultivate to further my own personal growth plans.

When do I apply this “12-month deadline” technique for my personal growth plans?

To answer that question, I have learned to be less critical about my plans and let things play as it lays. I am gentler with time without compromising my goals. My drive and passion are intensified without the pressure of calculated time. It is a realization that acknowledges the value of nourishing relations and being open to complexity of oneself and eventually to others. This results into a liberating feeling of compassion and knowing that I am steering myself in line with what I want to achieve.

Wishing you the 2012 buzz!
