My theme for January

Jan 11, 2017
I wrote last time about how I pick a theme for the year, and this year’s theme is EXPLORATION! I love that word so much that I have to write it in all caps.
 
I think of a theme as a goal, and all goals need to be broken down into smaller chunks if they’re going to be achieved. So I set a theme for each month too.

My theme for January is STRETCH.

I’m stretching in all kinds of ways:

Literally stretching my body for 20 minutes each day is a major goal for this month. You can see in my planner that I picked it as a focus goal – every day I stretch I get a gold star. I looooooooove getting gold stars. There is no question I will stretch daily just to get that star!

I’m also stretching by expanding my meditation practice to every single day this year, and with some longer sessions. I’m using our spending data from 2016 to craft this year’s budget (this is a huge stretch!). I’m planning an event to do a talk of my Kilimanjaro trek, complete with my photos. And I’m offering a new program this year, my Summit Mastermind.
 
Each one of these things is a stretch for me and I’m completely jazzed by them.

One of my mantras is:

She believed she could, so she did.

The only way to achieve all I want this year is by stretching myself. I believe I can, and I am. How about you?
