Values Quotes – Openness and Optimism for the New Year

Today’s quote is in honor of the New Year that begins today. Happy New Year!

To start off this New Year, I’m going to do something a little different. This quote is from me:

“When we have an openness to optimism, we can expect a great future.”

These are 2 great differentiating values.

Openness means an accommodating attitude or opinion; receptiveness; and ready accessibility. Optimism means a general disposition to expect the best in all things.

When we put these 2 values together, we create something rather powerful. We’re open and receptive to expect the best in everything.

Are you open and expecting the best in your work? What about within your family? Or your involvement in the community or church? Are you open and ready to expect the best this year from yourself?

Now, this is bigger than simply saying ‘have a positive attitude’. It’s about setting personal expectations that truly are the best.

So for New Year ahead, I encourage you to embrace the values of openness and optimism and expect a great future. The choice is yours to make.
