For 2017... I want:
Less... Less consumption of food and things, less stress. I want to live a simplified life.
More... More meaningful time for me, more of what matters, more quality time. Not just coming home, shuffling around, doing chores and watching Netflix (even though that in itself can be fabulous). I want to still have energy enough to take care of myself. That means more writing, more blogging, more reading, more learning.
Balance... Between work, family, friendships and time for me.
To be present... I want to pause and be able to live in the moment.
Focus... I want to be able to focus and not live in the future. I want to be in a conversation instead of thinking of what to say next. I want to listen to people.
Discipline... I want to be a better me, that means being disciplined.
Progress... Progress is vital. Originally I was going to write winning, but that implies that the fails won't count and they do. So progress captures more of what I really want.
Will to achieve... I want to keep going even when I trip and fall.
Connect... I want to do better with friends this year and that means being vulnerable.
Communicate... I want to be able to express myself. I usually find myself second-guessing my words, not saying what I really want, because I have a hard time putting my thoughts together. I think this plays into why I've pulled away from people, because I don't communicate well and then feel inferior when someone doesn't understand what I'm trying to say, and that's a horrible way to feel on a day to day basis.
Energy... Ever elusive, I just don't want to feel tired all the time.
