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 |

It’s your choice—which will you choose? See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC
“The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.” -William Butler Yeats One of the coolest things about sharing my stories of my bald eagle encounters, a whiptail lizard encounter after a breathwork session, and other winks from the Universe and synchronicities is getting messages from others about their own–I can’t count how many text messages and DMs I’ve gotten of pictures of bald eagles.I love receiving these messages because they show me that those...
