Reflection

And so here we are, seemingly before we know it, at the end of another year.

At this time of the year it’s tempting to start looking forward to what the new year will bring – after all, there’s a new diary full of crisp, blank pages just waiting to be filled!

We have, however, realised that such ‘folly’ should wait until its appointed time.

There’s power in reflection as it helps us to process what’s been, learn from our successes and failures, therefore making better informed choices going forward.

So, at Inspirations we’ve taken a moment to reflect on the year that’s been before we shift our focus to 2020.

As always, it been a year filled with needle and thread as we sourced, photographed, wrote about, published and shared the world’s most beautiful needlework through our magazines, books, newsletter and social channels. Not only that though, it’s also been about the connections we’ve made with everyone who’s part of our tribe – and for that we couldn’t be more grateful.

Our last staff meeting for 2019 saw us pouring over facts and figures as we looked back on the year that’s been, learning where our successes lay and where there was some room for improvement. We then finished the day with some blue sky dreaming for what’s possible going forward and we couldn’t be more excited, but you’ll have to stay tuned in 2020 to find out more.

We hope that amidst the hustle and bustle of the holiday season you’ll find the time and space to reflect on the year that’s been, working out what you’ll take with you into the new year and what fresh starts you’re looking forward to making – oh, and we look forward to seeing where your blue sky dreaming will take you into 2020 and beyond!
