Message of the Day - A New Year, A New Decade

Good Morning,
 
As I sit here typing this message with some 27 minutes left in the current year, I am thinking of something profound to share with you about our heading into the new year. More so that than, we are heading into a new decade.
 
Earlier today I shared my memories of 1999 new years with my daughters. The joy of entering a new millennium was tempered with the fear of the damage and chaos to be caused by the infamous Y2K Bug. The new years was counted down and at midnight, nothing happened. Cell phones kept working, TVs stayed on, with cable signals intact. All that build up and hype driving the hysteria of Y2K and shortly after midnight in January 2000 it vanished with limited impact across the world.
 
22 minutes to go to 2010.
 
This year, what hype, hysteria and fear have we been building up to as we get close to this new decade?
 
When the new year starts, much of these fears and hysteria will vanish as we look at the new year and presents its new challenges and opportunities.
 
We can focus on what is important to us now, and not let that hysteria and hype take our attention away from what means most to us.
 
12 minutes to go.
 
There is always going to be 'big' things to divert our attention. Maybe we can focus our attention in the new year to stay focused on what is important.
 
8 minutes to go.
 
Here is to a great new year, a new decade and spending more of our time focused on what is important to each of us.
 
Enjoy and Happy New Year!!
