I finally had a chance to think about the new year and plan ahead for 2019. Instead of listing out a bunch of resolutions, I’ve been inspired by friends to choose a word that I want to focus on in the new year.
Looking back on the past couple of years, I realized that I’ve let life and circumstances dictate my story. If I try to pick a word that describes 2017, it would have been survive and in 2018, it would have been recover.
This year I want to be intentional about what my year will look like which is why I’ve chosen “invest” to define my 2019.
I have a tendency to not get too attached and not commit because I want to be ready for any opportunity. However, by not truly investing in anything I think I have missed opportunities to be more deeply connected.
So throughout this year, I want to invest in deep relationship, long-term opportunities, plans for the future, and my mental, physical, & spiritual health.
Hopefully by this time next year, I’ll be able to look back and see how “invest” positively impacted my 2019.
Do you have a word for 2019? If so, drop it below so we can hold each other accountable.
Happy New Year friends! Can’t wait to see where 2019 takes us.

My word : relax
Nothing happens immediately, I need to recognize that and relax a little.
That’s so true but so hard sometimes. Such a good idea to focus on that. May have to steal that for 2020. ☺️
I can totally relate to your chosen words for 2017 and 2018. However, I’m living for your word for 2019. Very inspiring! Happy New Year!
So thankful our paths crossed when they did. Here’s to more adventures together in 2019! 🙏🏼🙏🏼😘
