your '25 theme
|
Today’s Note is an assignment. I want you to pick a word for ‘25 that will act as your North Star for the year. I know it’s the time of the year for short-lived resolutions and half-assed commitments–I speak from experience, but I’ve found that having a word, or a theme, for a year has helped me stay focused for the entire year. Your word could encompass your resolutions; for example, my word for last year was “discipline”. If your goal were to lose weight, work out more, etc., discipline would still guide you toward that goal—focus on the behavior or character trait, not the activity. So pick a theme and share it with someone—you can share it with me by just hitting reply (or DM’ing me if you’re reading this on LinkedIn). My word for ‘25 is “patience.” I’ll share more in the coming days about why I chose it–or better yet, it chose me. JC |

In fact, many of the things we unconsciously do should be done precisely the way they are done–for example, we don’t...
I have noticed “authenticity” popping up all over the place lately—and it’s being used in a way that is aligned with the “Authentic Life.” I’ve talked about how authenticity has become a buzzword and how I refuse to let it be hijacked and watered down by influences, inauthentic people, and disingenuous people who use it without any real substance. It was refreshing and exciting to hear people using it in a way that will hopefully encourage more people to pursue becoming their authentic Self....
