The Single Woman’s Dash of Sass: It’s AMAZING What a Year Can Do!

Quote of the Day:

“While I’ve often overestimated what I could accomplish in a day, I underestimated what I could do in a year.” ~Nicholas Sparks

The Single Woman Says:

A few days ago, I asked you all to submit to me what you considered to be your greatest accomplishments of the past year. While I expected some amazing responses, I was literally BLOWN AWAY by all the challenges you have overcome, odds you have defeated, and hurdles that you refused to let stand in your way over the past 365 days. Your answers ranged from “Beat cancer” to “Lost my job, so I started my own business,” to my very favorite: “Didn’t find love…but I found ME.”

So allow me to give you a standing ovation as I put it in writing, right here and now, that I have the most BADASS followers on Twitter! You all rocked my socks off with your responses, and with your undefeatable, unrepeatable, unshakable, unbreakable spirits!

I want to encourage you as we enter this new year, when you face hard times in the year ahead, to take a look back on where you came from. Not with sadness, or defeat, or longing for where you used to be…but with a sense of pride and accomplishment and triumph that YOU DIDN’T STAY THERE. You got up, you pushed through, you fought the good fight, you rose from the ashes, you kept your heads held high, and you refused to let defeat get the last word. And if you did ALL that in 2011…there is NOTHING you can’t accomplish or overcome in 2012!

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5…..
