This is going to be a great year! I feel it in my soul. I have begun the year doing something I’ve never done before. This is a practice I’ve seen floating around the internet for a few years, so the idea isn’t mine and I don’t take credit for it. I don’t know it’s originator, but I thank him or her because it’s a beautiful idea.
Here’s how it works…pick any three words that guide you forward to success in the coming year. Write these words down on a sheet of paper that you refer to everyday (or you can write them down every day). Keep them posted wherever they are visible to you frequently throughout the day – your mobile device screensaver, your computer monitor, a sticky note in your car, taped to your bathroom mirror, etc. Schedule a daily appointment with yourself in which you sit quietly and simply reflect on the three words you’ve chosen.
You’re manifesting in your own lane so pick 3 words that mean something to you. It’s important to pick words that you “feel.” You want words that will move you into alignment with what you want to accomplish this year. Action words are great because they inspire you to “do” something but if your word is a noun and it’s the right word for you, go with it. My words for 2019 are all nouns.
My 3 Words…
Rituals – I discovered a couple of years ago that when I begin my day with certain rituals I am happier throughout the day. In 2018, I allowed other things to crash in on my early morning rituals but not this year!
Home – my home is the most important place to me. It’s where I find balance. It centers me. From here I can look out onto the messiness of the world and still be okay. This year I want to accomplish some changes in our home that have been put off for awhile. These aren’t just simply chores, but other things that keep our home our happy place.
Relationships – both my personal and professional life is about relationships. Relationships come and go in life. I am going to focus this year on cultivating new relationships and strengthening the ones I have.
So now it’s your turn. Make 2019 a success! You have the power.
