Cheers to an Intentional Year
Alas! You've made it to 2023!
With a new year comes change and goals to accomplish. Focusing on what you want to accomplish in the new year is possible. Most of the time we set goals and forget about them mid year. Sometimes it's hard to stick to goals and resolutions because we try to get them done in a certain timeframe. Instead of setting resolutions, try being more intentional! Setting intentions is another way of creating a goal for yourself but with less pressure. Being intentional is about being mindful about when you are or are not engaging in certain behaviors. Setting intentions comes with mistakes and mishaps but the goal is to stick with them.
When you are intentional about changing and bettering yourself, you'll accomplish more. Stay positive and remember change is possible. If you stumble along the way, remember to give yourself grace and keep going!
Here's to a intentional, mindful, and uplifting new year!
