Happy New Year!
I hope you all are doing a better job at sticking to your new year's resolutions better than Mayhem.
This year hubs and I decided to be STRONGER. That's it, our only resolution.
Last year at a faculty meeting my co-workers and I learned about picking one word to be our personal goal, one word or idea to strive for and let all your changes for the better happen around that word. The idea comes from Jon Gordon’s book One Word That Will Change Your Life. At that time I picked peace☮️. I needed to calm my mind and heart and let some things go. This year hubs said his resolution was to be STRONGER and I decided I wanted to reach for the same goal.
I love this idea. Notice how we didn't pick strength. I love that STRONGER has the connotation of growth and constant improvement. There's no idea of, “Oh, well I reached it by May. I'm done,” but rather it's “Wow! I got this far. How much farther can I go? How much further can I push myself, my mindset, my comfort zone?”
My faith
My mind
My body
My relationships
My will power
...can all be STRONGER.
Do you have a "one word"?
Whatever your resolution is, best of luck with it this year!
