Pick a New Year’s Theme With Me!

Evidence-based guidance says to pick a theme, rather than set goal-like resolutions. A theme can weather the realities of how our climb to recovery or plummet into dystopia happens to be looking on a given day, and be similarly flexible within our individual life-moments of soaring and inevitable curve balls. A theme offers small nudges when possible to move the trendline we are trying to improve. A theme can be something we already do or have, but give us an opportunity to focus on shifting this in all those little moments for a stretch.

More, though. A seasonal theme speaks to me right now. Looking out 3 months is accessible. It feels like something I can touch.

My professional new year’s theme is creating.
My professional winter theme is digital creating.

My personal theme is allostasis.
My personal winter theme is changeover.

What’s yours?
