This is not a Bullet Journal discussion week. Before I get to the meat of this week’s post, however, I want to show off my spread for this week. I might have gone overboard just a bit on the washi tape and stickers. But – but – Christmas!!
This month, I’ve been working on goal setting and planning for 2017. Saturday, I did something I’ve done for several years. I chose a single word for 2017. The process I used on Saturday was totally different, and a very powerful and profound experience for me. I used an exercise from Kim Job at sublimereflection.com. First, I looked at a list of words Kim provided. I circled a couple of them, adding them to the list of words I already had been considering. I wrote down my best five possible words. Then I got to the part of the exercise that was game-changing. I looked up each of my words on Thesaurus.com. If any of the synonyms resonated with me, I wrote them down. When I had finished looking up my original list, I took the synonyms I liked and looked them up as well. The word I finally chose was actually a synonym of a synonym.
My word for 2017 is (drum roll please!) – revitalize.
Any of the words I started with would have been fine words for the year. Kim’s exercise led me to find what I consider the perfect word for me for 2017.
I have some goals written out. When I review them this week and next week, I have my word for 2017 and can consider how my goals connect with that word.
I hope your celebrations are full of Light, Music, Comfort, and Joy!!
Have a terrific week!
Bright Blessings – Cedar
