Intentions, Wishes + Focus (Or Why I Don’t Make Resolutions)

The beginning of a new year can always inspire the possibilities of new beginnings and fresh starts. And while I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that, I’m not a huge fan of the fact that we’re conditioned to think that we need to wait for a new year to begin to be a new ‘us’.

By all means, it’s important that we take the opportunity to look back over the past year and give ourselves a heavy dose of gratitude for all the good that came our way. The good we brought into our lives by pursuing our goals, stretching our boundaries and growing through it all – those things add up to make us who we are.

There’s magic in taking the time to recognize the places in which we can continue to stretch and grow. But I don’t think we necessarily have to wait for the calendar to turn to decide to make a fresh start.

So rather than set resolutions (that I’ve proven to myself to break time and time again) I prefer to look back over the year and focus on how I want to feel in the upcoming days, or months – recognizing that this is something I do fairly regularly to keep myself in-check and knowing that I can tweak whenever I feel it’s necessary, regardless of the calendar day.

And so, I thought I would send some intentions and wishes your way to get you thinking about what you want to feel, experience and move through over the next little while, knowing that you have every right to redefine, rediscover and reposition yourself whenever, however, and as often as you like.
