Be Awesome in 2015!

Here is some good advice for 2015 (with a little help from Barney Stinson / aka Neil Patrick Harris’ character from “How I Met Your Mother”):

Be awesome!

I came across this photo and quote this morning.  I loved it.  And I love the show too.  From a writer’s stand point, it’s such a unique, fun series that gives true storytelling a chance through these quirky characters.  The jump back in time and into the future with various references is pure genius.

Barney is such a comical character and I truly love watching him unfold.  His words are good advice.  Don’t be sad or at least don’t stay sad.  Be awesome instead.  In other words, don’t let attitude, excuses, outside circumstances, other people, weather, news, etc. stand in your way of happiness. There is no magic pill, shake or program that will have all the answers for you. Sure, having money, being more fit and feeling healthy may help you have joy but in the end….It’s just YOU. (Sometimes you even have to get the negative you out of your own head first too!) You decide and choose what you will do, how you will live and what is the next step. Then that will determine your happiness and the capability to enjoy an awesome year ahead.

So go forth and be awesome, in whatever way that may be!  Happy New Year!  2015 will be an amazing year!
