Resolution Revolution: My One Word for 2008
(Photo credit: Marco Michelini)
The clock strikes midnight on a new year, filling people with renewed hope and optimism. They excitedly make resolutions, oftentimes after enjoying the festivities a little too much, of how they will change and what they will achieve in the coming year. By mid-January, the newness has lost its shine, credit cards begin flowing in, and it’s back to the same old grind. Those good intentions, enthusiasm and optimism fade away.
For this reason, I’m joining Christine Kane’s Resolution Revolution. The basic idea is to choose one word and let it guide you to take action throughout the year.
Reading Christine’s post, FOCUS was the first word that came to my mind loud and clear. I bounced around a few other words, while multi-tasking, before settling down to respond with a comment, but FOCUS kept shouting at me. To me, FOCUS entails minimizing my technologically-induced ADHD, decluttering and simplifying my surroundings, multi-tasking only when appropriate – tasks requiring my full attention will receive it. With FOCUS, I feel I can accomplish more of why I was put on this earth, and that will create inner peace because I’m doing what I’m meant to do. In turn, that will create a variety of wealth. I’m sensing FOCUS will be quite a powerful mantra for 2008.
What is your word for 2008?
