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 |

The song “Now or Never” is off of Kendrick’s Good Kid Mad City album and is...

Two words. (I so badly wanted to turn the beginning of this into a new verse of Kanye West's song Two Words, but those creative juices weren't flowing tonight.) Patience. Epitome. These two words will be my guides for ‘25. I will have goals and other things motivating me throughout the year, but these two words cover any and everything I might decide to pursue this upcoming year. I didn’t plan on having two words for the new year–I originally was only going with patience, but over the last...
