With a mix of dread and anticipation many of us start back at work today.

We are thankful to have work to go back to. Some don’t.

At the same time, though, we catch ourselves associating our vacations with when life gets to be lived and our work with when life stops and making ends meet begins again.

This first Monday of 2009 let’s choose to live fully while making ends meet. This first work week of the year let’s begin a practice of working with excellence, relating with authenticity, and choosing to show up fully.

Every day matters, but Monday is when we have an opportunity to reframe a new week. Today, we get to reframe a new year.

What might excellence, authenticity and showing up fully look like for you this week? This year?

On your side,

- Karl Edwards
