3 Words in 2021
In my work as a coach and film producer, I believe that new year's resolutions are over-complicated. I often subscribe to the motto "K.I.S.S." (Keep It Simple, Silly).
In that spirit, I offer you this: what are the three words that encompass how you want to BE in the world in 2021? What are the three words that reflect the experience of life you want to have?
I'm toying around with these three: Love, Connection, Joy. I'd love to hear from you - new to the Fairygodboss site and looking to make new connections!

I am not a resolution person but I did catch on to the idea of having a one-word theme as a guiding principle for the year ahead. I've been brainstorming a lot the past few weeks. I ended up choosing "LIGHT" as my one word, because it encompasses so much. To play off of that theme, three words would be:
enlighten (as in simplify)
delight (as in being joyful)
greenlight (as in go for it!)
Thank you for this exercise!

I love this exercise! I’ve had to think on it quite a bit but these three words will become my mantra for 2021!
Love - hold onto the loving connections with immediate and extended family that have been strengthened because of 2020’s situation
Grow - in reference to a new opportunity at work
Execute - on a dream my husband and I have -this is the year to start!

I have two words from Secretary of State Colin Powell: Perpetual Optimism. I heard him give a presentation this past summer and it encompasses how I want to be every day. If I have to add one more word ... chocolate!!! I especially appreciate the 4 pm treat I have every day.

Every year, I pick my 'word of the year' and it's the word that guides me like a north star.
Ironically last year, my word of the year was lighter.
I wanted to feel lighter and I wanted to help provide light to my clients. Who knew how appropriate (and life saving) the word would be for me).
This year, my word of the year is increase.
In our Facebook Group, Just Gen X - The Resting Mind and our podcast Make Your LIfe Magnficient we're doing an entire series on Word of the Year come January. I think, like Angie, it is such a better way to make a 'resolution.'
It's an intentional way of being.
