New Year, Same (Cool) You

How are you easing into 2023? Things are same same over here and that’s by design.

As I mentioned in my email last week, 2022 was my best yet in business.

I felt a flow and an ease in my work. I was energized by the mix of products and services I was offering, the types of clients I was supporting and the free time I created in my days to focus on my own wellbeing.

Yet, in my downtime over the holidays, I had a gazillion ideas about new ways to serve my clients and new work to bring into the world.

It’s all very on-brand for me.

I love possibilities and potential and bringing new ideas to life.

I love starting something completely new to see what happens.

But, alas not this year.

I’m writing them ALL down. The gems. The epiphanies. The transformative solutions.

And I’m NOT doing them.

My mantra for 2023 is: Focus. Stay the course.

I built solid systems last year and I’m grateful to say – I want more time to enjoy what I’ve created!

Every time I use my mantra to “not now” my new idea, I think about how I can channel all of that creativity, energy and time into my 2023 writing project.

With all this Big Change Energy of January, I wanted to share that it’s ok to also say:
I like what I’ve got going on and who I am.

I don’t need to exercise more or set big audacious goals.

I can simply continue to do more of what’s working and less of what’s draining.

For me, not going after the next big thing IS actually the next big thing.
So, if that’s where you are, I see you. I’m sending compassion your way and I’m happy to share my mantra.
