Have you Picked Your Focus Word Yet
Welcome to another New Year, full of hope, promise and potential. Have you pondered choosing your focus word?
Here is my updated blog post for welcoming 2020 and the new decade!
And, what was your word last year?
Mine was Systemize, which was about me going through each area of my business and making sure I had systems in place to streamline my business and ensure that I was maximizing my business efforts and doing what I truly love, as much as possible.
And, it is still an ongoing process.
It helped me get clear on the 3 areas that matter in my business –

Everything comes down to these 3 key areas.

Your Focus Word 2019 – Why it Matters
In order to stay focused, we start with a word that keeps us oriented in that way.
Use that word to measure your activities and actions. Ask – is this in alignment with my goals, intentions and priorities.
Creating Priorities
Have you taken the time to really identify and write down your priorities? I confess, I had not. In my mind, I knew what mattered.
This year, when I was doing my 2018 review, I came to a harsh realization – my calendar and where I spent the bulk of my time did not reflect in what I was stating that my priorities are.
So, I took some time to get things right.
My 5 F Words
You’ve probably heard me talk before about my 5 F Words – it’s what I use to plan my goals and priorities around.
They are:
Faith
Family/Friends
Fun
Fitness
Finance
Within these, there are sub-categories.
Define what your priorities are and then choose a word that fits in all areas.
This year, my top priority is my husband and marriage, and making sure we are both healthy and thriving.
He’s been my rock for over 32 years; 30 married and I realize looking back that I have not always shown my appreciation for that support. It’s nice that after all these years, I not only still love him, but I LIKE him, too. And, there is a difference.
Mastering Practice
Did you listen to my podcast on the Consistency Chain? Listen here!
Success in anything comes down to regular activities to support what you want. I call those the “Practice” of doing what it takes to achieve what you want. And, doing it over and over and over again until it is as natural as breathing.
Life, Marriage, Parenting, Fitness and Health and certainly business.
So, after 2018, and knowing what my systems are that bring me success in business, I am focused on mastering the “Practice” of doing those things.
Knowing what my goals are in my personal life and marriage, I am focused on mastering the “Practice” of doing those things that support those goals.
Having clarity on my health and wellness goals keeps me focused on mastering the “Practice” of doing those things that support my health and wellness mission.
Make sense?
Creating Transformation
As you use your focus word, along with the priorities in your life as a guide for your actions, you will begin to experience transformation.
I’ve heard it’s 21 days to a new habit, but it’s actually a little more than that. James Clear writes that 66 days is the norm, and it can range from 18-254 days.
The time is going to pass anyway, so why not use that time intentionally to create what you want?
I would love to hear your focus word. Please share below!
The next two podcasts will be on creating this transformation!
