WORD OF THE YEAR 2020 – Purpose
I’m so excited to share my word of the year for 2021 with you! For me, 2020 was a little crazy as I’m sure it was for all of you.
The world as we know it changed in so many ways but I also had a lot of time to think about what’s important to me and spend time with my family.
As I sat down to reflect and choose a word of the year for 2021, the first one I thought of was Purpose.
I have a lot of big plans for my businesses and my family life this year and I want to pursue them with a purpose!
Since I want to be more purposeful this year in how I live my life I broke it down to specifically in these 3 categories:
TIME MANAGEMENT
This is a big one for me! I don’t know about you but I have a hard time with time management.
Do you ever feel like you have so many things to do but end up getting nothing done? It me. 🙋♀️
This year I’m so excited to keep trying out time blocking for my business and home life.
Time blocking is when you set a timer for a certain task you want to accomplish. Then you try to get it done within the time you set.
I love this idea because I love a good challenge.
I’ll be setting that timer to help myself get some of the less exciting tasks done such as dishes and folding laundry.
I also think it will limit distractions and help me tackle my to-do list with purpose!
RELATIONSHIPS
I’m so thankful for the people in my life who love and support me and this year I want to purposefully spend time with all of them!
This means carving out time to spend with each of my kids, my husband, and my friends and family!
SPIRITUAL & PHYSICAL HEALTH
As a mom of 4, I often forget to take care of myself because I am always taking care of someone else.
This year I want to be purposeful about setting aside time to pray, read my bible, and make sure I’m paying attention to my physical health.
For example, I always forget to drink enough water and I’ve completely given up on meal planning. 🤷♀️
These are a couple of things I want to be purposeful about doing in this brand new year!
