--------------------------------

Any reason to use up more of the new Homespun Chic line is good for me right now ! 

I decided on a singular focus for this challenge  - 

so I used only one frame & one main lesson to share from 2009. 

& this is a lesson that I am so passionate about

 in terms of sharing it with 

whoever might be in need of it this year !

   ( I know I have shared with a coupla blogging friends already ;) ) 

What I learned in 2009 ? 

focus on the transitions , 

not the changes ,

in life . 

By transitions - I mean our emotional & mental response 

to the good, bad or ugly changes that come into our path . 

Focusing on managing the transitions better will put us in better stead , 

with a much better attitude & with greater resilience . 

I have found this to be useful, applied in many areas of my life. 

This lesson was crystallized for me by Paul Scanlon .
