Am I the only one who watched the Harry & Meghan special on Netflix? Well whether you’re fans of the Duke and Duchess or not, one thing I kept thinking about after the special was when Meghan talked about how she chooses a word for each year instead of new year resolutions.
The new year is really complicated for me. Like most of you, I get inundated with images of exercise equipment, diet recipes and travel bucket lists and it’s really hard not to do a lot of comparing. With that comparison I tend to let my insecurities out and get down on myself. So, instead of the typical resolutions (loose weight, eat better, travel more) I set some life goals for this year (read about them here!). But after watching that special I started thinking of my word for 2023.
And my word is…. drum roll please….
Simplicity.
Find the beauty in the simple things.
I am someone that tends to overcomplicate things and I’m trying to force myself to slow down and enjoy. This spreads to everything from work, to relationships, even what to wear. My goal this year is to find the simplicity in life and really breathe it in.
What’s your word for the year?
