Intention Setting for 2024

Happy new year! Hope you had a chance to relax over the holidays and are taking a few minutes this week to write your 2024 intentions/ resolutions/ goals.

Often new year's resolutions are started with gusto. A common new year resolution is to improve fitness. You may notice gyms across the world are busier this week! As the year progresses, some resolutions may be adhered to, and others may taper off.

No judgment. It's just goal setting. Rewrite, reframe, reexamine your goals. It can be an iterative process. Maybe your intentions change throughout the year. You can simply update your goals or create a new list, at anytime.

Intention setting resonates with me.

• In yoga, I encourage students to set an intention for class.?
• In business, we write SMART goals, agendas for meetings, key points to cover in a call.
• I often write points to discuss at an interview or a doctor appointment.??

What is important to you this year?

• Consider adding a few personal goals to your SMART goals.?
• Maybe you prefer to keep your personal goals separate. You could write it down in a notebook or journal. You could share it on your website/blog.

Regardless of the format you choose, I invite you to do what resonates with you. Make it your own.?
