Five hundred twenty-five thousand, six hundred minutes ~ How do you measure, measure a year?
I've been sick the past week and watched more shows than I care to admit, and one of the shows I watched was Rent the Movie. The opening song which I’m sure you’ve heard before has been stuck in my brain on repeat since. HEAR IT HERE
It got me thinking how will I spend the five hundred twenty-five thousand, six hundred minutes that I've been blessed with this year?
I love the clean slate of the new year.
Though I’m not big on resolutions ~ As you know most resolutions are long forgotten by mid-January.
I do love setting intentions and picking a word as my theme for the year, to help me stay focused.
I love the reminder that the new year brings, that life can be a blank paper, waiting and ready for me to dream, to start taking action on the goals that I have for myself and have been reflecting on the last few weeks as I closed out 2021.
I know that I can start over anytime (and believe me, I often do) but, there is something extra special about the clock clicking to midnight and turning the page to a fresh start, a new minute, new hour, new day, new month, and a new year.
It is exciting to look at my giant mind map of what I have planned out and what I am going to do and strategize how I'll make it happen.
By pulling into bite-size actionable pieces laid out step by step into my calendar, so I don’t have to guess, I can just show up and follow the plan.
This year the theme I have set for myself is "Speak Up & Prosper"
I plan to speak up more and elevate marginalized voices, share more of my story and successes of my clients, continue to build community and foster relationships, nurture new opportunities all in a way that lights me up and brings more joy to our world.
I’m curious how will you use the five hundred twenty-five thousand, six hundred minutes that we have this year?
