2023: Finish the sentence...
Happy New Year!! I hope you're off to a good start! I wanted to do a mini-reflection exercise with you just to get you thinking ahead. Finish the sentences! What's the first thing that comes to mind? That may be what you want to focus on. If you're the type who prefers to really think about it, that's good too! At the end of the sentences, you should have an idea of what you want to work on this year.
⭐ In 2023 I would like to...
⭐ To do this, I need to...
My tip is to focus on wellness over resolutions. What do you want to work on and how do you plan to get there?
Revisit your reply to this post often to make sure you're still going in the right direction. Monitoring your progress is key to creating lasting change!
Spend more time on taking care of myself. Learning what I need to make me feel alive and well. Stop caring about what other people think of me.
To do this I need to get active and change everything I’m currently doing because it’s not working. Join a club and maybe get a therapist.
In 2023 I would like to set firm boundaries, not take responsibility for others actions and meet my needs.

⭐ In 2023 I would like to... Do
⭐ To do this, I need to... Just DO
@Heather225 drink more water and reduce my stress & anxiety.
In 2023, I would like to draw/paint two finished works for my portfolio (three+ if possible), finish the current cane project & start the next one, at minimum. To do this, I'll have to get enough sleep, ration my energy carefully, & organize my living room. Also will have to eat enough of the right foods...not easy in my area, but not impossible either.
Aaaaand looking back on this, I know I didn't accomplish any of these things. Because life. And chronic s***. And because of an inability to focus for an extended period.
It's times like this that I find myself repulsive.

⭐ In 2023 I would like to...
Have a balanced personal & social life by allocating time wisely
⭐ To do this, I need to...
Be thankful for the opportunity given to each day
Not be afraid of trying new things
In 2023 i would like to make my mind more cohesive instead of being all over the place. I want to do good at my job so i can get a good income.
to do these things, i need to meditate a lot and not think about the past, which will set me behind. I need to be in the present and think about the future. to do good at my job i just need to be persistent and attentive, which is coming easier to me lately.

⭐ In 2023 I would like to be nicer to myself and be more mindful of self-care routines.
⭐ To do this, I need to stop negative thinking towards myself and remember to take time for myself. I will find a self-care routine that works, maybe wash my face more or get my nails done once in a while. 💜💙
