Greater Bath Area Chamber- January 2020 Connections Article

Bath Area Chamber Chair

We did it! We have arrived at the end of another year. Good or bad, we made it. What I love so much about this moment in time is that it’s a great opportunity to take a moment and reflect over the past year. Take notice of your personal growth. Whether you cinched that promotion, started your own business or even navigated through disappointment, we all grow from these experiences. Some have grown with more character, compassion, patience and perseverance. Everything we experience and learn through success and failure is meant to bring you to this very moment. Everything happens for a reason and we learn what we are made of. We build on our life experiences; good or bad. It is what you choose to do with your experiences that can change everything. So, take a moment grab some grit and set your goals for this upcoming year. Make a personal vision board, even if it’s just in your mind and hit the ground running. You can accomplish anything you want. You have the Chamber behind you with professional and networking opportunities and everyone who is part of the Chamber wants to see you rise to the top. Together, we can do anything. So, my wish for you this New Year is for you to dare to be brave. Think outside the box. Take that next step forward toward your next goal. Stay focused, be optimistic and trust in yourself because I know there are great things on the horizon for you and the Greater Bath Chamber will be right there cheering you on. Some of our upcoming events that we would love to see everyone at are: Annual Chocolate and Wine Pairing on Monday, February 10th, 2020 and our Moola for our Main Streets on Wednesday, March 25th, 2020. Wishing you all a very Happy and Healthy New Year! ​
