Happy Lunar New Year!
Happy New Year!
(Lunar New Year, that is)
You may have heard it called the Chinese New Year. But the Lunar New Year is celebrated all over the world, and especially in Asian countries and communities. Because it is marked by the day when the first new moon appears in the lunar calendar, it lands on a different day each year, usually between mid-January and mid-February. This year, that day is February 12.
In China, it marks the beginning of a 15-day celebration, filled with festivities and customs. But I'd rather think of it as the beginning of a life-long celebration. Why stop celebrating life in 15 days when you can continue throughout your life?
What does the Lunar New Year have to do with Wealthy Affiliate?
Quite simply, I'm choosing to use it as motivation. The Lunar New Year represents a fresh start, a new beginning to our continued lives. And so, I'm reminded that EACH day offers the chance for a new beginning.
And that is how I see every day in my affiliate websites and indeed in all of life.
Today represents a new chance to create a great post, bring new visitors to my sites, and even increase my rankings.
Yes, every day is like that. That's true.
And when you think about it, each day we wake up is a new chance at life and all it holds. A new beginning, if you will.
With all that in front of you, consider the awesome opportunities awaiting your actions. Jump in and make this the beginning of the best year of your life...the best year, so far!
Most of us have heard this quote before, but I think it is worth sharing again as a reminder.
“Today is the first day of the rest of your life”
