My 3 Words for 2020

Last year, thanks to some inspiration from a friend, I chose three words that would steer me on my 365-day trip around the sun.They were discernment, cultivate and persistence. Discernment, to remind me to remember what was important in the grand scheme of life and what to shake off. Cultivate, as in relationships, mainly. And persistence. It barely needs explaining, but on our continued, difficult road to conceiving (finally had luck at the end of 2019), persistence was 1,000% integral.

As my family launches into a new exciting year/decade — more on that TK — I can say my 2019 words definitely contributed to where we're headed in 2020.

Have you tried picking three words for the year? Here's a little bit on where it started.

Without further ado, here are my 3 words:

Open. To new possibilities, experiences, people and adventures. I feel like I've been living like a bit of a hermit in our Rancho Palos Verdes bubble. I'm looking to get out of my comfort zone more in 2020.

Move. Both physically and figuratively, on various projects (some in my head, some already in motion). I've been pretty sedentary these past few years since having LG. Even with a baby in the belly, I'm trying to focus more energy on physical activity. And I want to be focusing on forward progress on my business idea and its evolution.

Absorb. I want learning to be a focus of 2020. With this comes more reading. Send me all your favorite book suggestions, both non-fiction and fiction, please.

Do any of these resonate with you? Are you a resolution(s) person? Share with us in the comments how you embrace the new year and new beginnings!
