Happy New Year 2019



May this year be filled with 
strength, courage, conviction, 
love, joy, health and happiness... 
With all that comes success!


Time has a way of flying by faster each year. Then something happens, and we awaken and the New Year has arrived. This year I will be flying on New Years Eve and when we land, it will be January 2nd in Sydney. Therefore I will be missing the festivities of the night before, and the new day. But that will not stop the joy that only a New Year can bring. Or the fact that I will have resolutions to fulfill. 

I'm certain I did not meet all my resolutions last year, but not without a gallant effort. However, with the New Year we are afforded an opportunity to start anew. Make new plans. New goals. Try something new. Always striving for what we believe to be our best self.  


My 2019 Resolutions:

*   Focus on Gratitude everyday! 

*  Earn my PhD:
This one is in sight! And, you are all invited to my defense in Daytona Beach, January 11, 2019, at 1pm EST... or watch live by signing up and watching on Eagle Vision by clicking here

*  Revitalize the Flight to Success blog! 

Once the PhD is complete, I will be back to blogging 2-3  times a week.

* Finish 4 books:
  • Weaponization of Mental Health in the Airline Industry
  • Normalization of Deviance (based on dissertation)
  • Jungle Air Airline Monkey Business 
  • Flight For Justice (Darby's 4th novel)


* Pass the LSAT! 
  • Get into Law School (2020)  

* Bucket List: 
  • Take my husband to the Kentucky Derby for his birthday! 

*  Exercise Daily

*   No Sugar!
  • Not purchase any sugar in January 
  • Give up sugar starting February (after the supplies diminish). 

*  Win an Air 21 case. 
  • The most important goal of this year might just be to ensure that employees everywhere know they can report safety without being retaliated against. 
*   Finish the Lake house and move in!




It's going to be a busy year! 
But life is short, and if we don't live it to the fullest, 
we may never realize all the opportunities available, 
and what a blessing it was!


What are your resolutions 
this year?

Enjoy the Journey!
XO Karlene
