Today may be your first day back to work. Did any of your New Year’s resolutions include anything about ‘doing less’? I was writing down my goals for the new year and next minute my list was at 2 pages! It included business goals, personal goals, health goals….it made my head hurt just looking at it. And as I looked at the list, everything was about achieving something that would mean I needed to work harder, read more, be a better wife, daughter, sister, friend or about fitting more into every day. So I decided to simplify it…to one word. My new word for 2016 is SIMPLE. I have a tendency to overcomplicate everything so I hope to learn how not to this year. The best thing about such a ‘simple’ (pun intended) goal, is that is so broad and the measurement for success leaves lots of room for improvement and measurement. I know all the ‘goal setting experts’ tell you that goals need to be measured, specific and time focused, but I disagree.
So in the interest of starting with this post, by keeping it SIMPLE, what is your 2016 word going to be?
