There is no better gift you can give yourself as a divorced mom than that of centeredness, awareness & reflection. Without slowing down, you get lost in the busyness of life, and lose vital connection to yourself, your dreams and your purpose. Staying busy keeps you away from the valuable gifts of divorce (yes! There are many!), and more importantly, keeps you from becoming the woman you are meant to become.

Spend a little time every day between now and the end of the year to reflect on these questions:

• What kind of woman/mother do I want to be in 2012? What is my essence? Am I patient? Kind? Creative? Happy? Fun? Think of who you want to become, not just how you want your divorce to turn out.
• What habits/patterns/beliefs am I willing to let go of? You have to let go of the old to let in the new. What habits aren't serving you anymore? What beliefs are in your way? Time to fess-up and get them out. They have no business coming with you into 2012.
• What are my three major goals for 2012, and when would I like them to be met? Nothing feels worse than a life-on-hold, and nothing does that more than divorce. Bypass your divorce and start thinking about personal goals you would like to achieve in 2012. Meeting your meaningful goals is one of the best ways to move forward from your divorce.
