A year like no other, the unparalleled Coronavirus impact since March of this year. Definitely a year for recalibrations; who needs a new mindset for 2021?
I know globally we all agree, 2020 an unprecedented year with COVID-19. Our time, the recalibrations, how some of us socially gather, travel, dine out, and our health appointments/fitness routines.
My thought back in March as COVID-19 unfolded when Pennsylvania issued a stay-at-home order that would last a few weeks, not months. I’m thankful for the NYC trip back in February before we fully understood the novel virus’s impact.
Like everyone else, a new normal to work from home, quarantine guidelines, and wearing masks to limit exposure. Rediscovering my passion for home gardening, cooking, and dare I say being domestic.
In May, my preferred event, our annual Club 21 black tie. Instead, the world saw a recurring American nightmare with the murder of George Floyd and the social unrest calling for justice.
The most difficult aspect for me during Coronavirus, visiting my Mom with her declining health from ovarian cancer.
September, a bittersweet month to celebrate my milestone birthday, notification of inclusion in a Who What Wear beauty feature. And my beautiful mom, Bessie, departed this life.
Who can forget the tremendous “Get Out to Vote” campaigns and the high stakes presidential election during the fall?
My household continued to follow CDC guidelines to celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.
My mindset moto for 2021:
You owe yourself one hour a day of self-maintenance.
It can include reading, writing, massages, exercise, dancing, facials, painting, or whatever,
but you/I owe it to yourself/me.
One hour, 1/24, of your day.
That’s less than 5%.
It matters; it really does.
Make it count in 2021.
