Personally what I do and teach my clients is to choose one theme word for the last year of how they desire to feel. Last year mine was “connection”; this year mine is “sovereign.” Then any goals task or exercise all revolve around that one themes word. So if my word is connection I would perhaps find a running group so that I could stay true to my theme while doing these activities that I love. The reason we do anything – running, waiting well is to help ourselves.

My word this season is surrender.

That’s a great word. It reminds me of Oriah Mountain Dreamer, words “Sometimes I think there are only two instructions we need to follow to develop and deepen our spiritual life: slow down and let go.”

such a good point – and I have heard the words before – but never related to goals and this took it to a new level – even tho the words have not worked for me yet for the future – but I can find one for past years
