At the start of each year, I determine a word that will be the focus of my months ahead. Others may make resolutions, but I decided to ditch those ideas and just stick to one – my word. Even if you are more of a resolution person, I bet your goals all have one central idea.
Time may have gotten away from you this year. Deadlines shifted, budgets adjusted and team roles have changed. While all of that is normal in the workplace, there is still time in your year to get back on track. It is not too late!
Some action steps to help you finish out the year strong:
- Determine or rediscover your word for the year.
- Write your word down. Use our word of the year template!
- Put your word it on display. Where will you see it every day? Put it there!
- Share your word with a friend. This will help keep you accountable and excited about your word.
Get your word back into focus for the rest of the year! Staying motivated is a huge key to accomplishing your goal. Your word of the year provides a guide for each task and activity that you work to complete. You have something that gives you clarity for next steps and ideas. If your idea/goal does not line up with your word, just know that it may be a waste of your time to follow through with it. Consider your word as a filter for the goals that you may have throughout the rest of the year.
Another key factor is to make your word as appealing as possible. Having your word displayed in an eye-changing way can help keep your word top of mind as well. So make sure to use our word of the year template or if you want something more custom to share, contact us!
