Spring is the real and right new year. So, documenting my intentions as we enter this vibrant season of new energy and transformation.
Words for the year are aligned and intentional. I want to go to sleep every night knowing that I was intentional with my time and live in a way that honored my core values, aligned with my virtues and what I hold important.
Here are 3 actionable pillars that I will be focusing on to support my goals of alignment and intentional living.
-
75 Hard - To reach my higher, embodied self I need to build grit and discipline, and also build confidence and trust with myself. While arguably extreme, I think that successfully completing this challenge will be foundational for building intentionality and alignment.
-
Digital Detox / Digital Minimalism - Removing the crap passive consumption and reclaiming leisure and hard work. Less is more, energy breeds energy, but you have to get started. (book summary and review on Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport coming soon).
-
“Tighten the Nut” - Act now to create future self, see the magic in the mundane and build atomic habits. Every moment is an opportunity to cast votes for who you want to be, act accordingly (book summary and review on Atom Habits by James Clear also in the works).
My goal is to write at least one post a day (likely more an update on my own journey, mind musings from the week) and one piece a week (this is a more formal and vetted piece of writing, an op-ed article, book review, etc.).
