Wow another year begins. In thinking about what to share as my New Year's greeting, I decided to start with my "theme" for the year as it tells a story of how we can get to fulfillment and completing our goals in 2018.
My theme is two-fold: Simplify and Movement. As I was composing this blog post, I realized I was spinning on the fact that I had two theme's, not one. Should there be a sub-theme? Was there a lack of clarity? Etc... At that moment it became clear to me that it was the mental gymnastics I was going through, that was the issue! Seeking perfection, looking for that exact word, best work-out and diet, writing the perfect resume/LinkedIn profile can all be barriers to movement and taking action.
So, I decided to sprinkle in a little imperfection into my "theme" too!
Do not get me wrong, I am not advocating a sloppy job, low standards, or settling for less. However, when it comes to movement towards our goals and making changes, we can waste a lot of time "trying to get it right", when small simple movements get us to our desired outcome much faster.
Here is to taking one step at a time and keeping it simple in 2018.
