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 |

Give your Self permission to dream. Dreaming doesn’t mean you have to pursue, but I’m willing to bet the more you dream, the more curious...
Yesterday, I saw a comment somewhere that people are more polite and thankful to their GPTs than they are to other people. I didn’t fact-check it, but I can see there being some truth to this. Even if it’s not true, the fact that it is believable is sad. This morning, I finally listened to a voice note from a college friend I had been sitting on until I could be present and not distracted. He shared with me that he was starting a practice of sending someone a voice note each week to let them...
I’ve never been to an AA meeting, but on various podcasts, I’ve heard plenty about the 12 Steps that have been so successful in helping people struggling with addiction find their way to sobriety. I’ve noticed how many of these steps are applicable outside of fighting an addiction. For the last week, anytime I’ve been in the car with Roman, I’ve had George Mumford’s Unlocked playing on Spotify; I’m determined to help the boys master their minds and begin to see the benefits of meditation.
