A new year is upon us! Time for us toreflect on the lessons of the previousyear (especially those we learnedinadvertently), to make new goals andrevive the old ones. Each year we canstart anew; new outlook, new attitude, anew disposition to the world around us.

As we start 2015, I hope each of you trysomething different, make a point to getoutside your comfort zone to do one morething that you have never done before buthave wanted to at least try. There is value inexperiencing new things and adventures.We spend so much time and energy on thematerial things and worrying about thingsthat don't have a lasting impact. Take oneday, just one, to go somewhere new andeat something different or try a new activity.Ask that person to dinner you've beenthinking about. Set aside your fears. Now isyour chance!

Sometimes it is doing the things that arethe least comfortable that teach us themost about ourselves. We at SandsPublishing and all of our advertisers wishyou a wonderful and happy new year!
