My word for 2014?
Yep, I want to conquer those things holding me back. Here are a few ways I plan to use the word conquer in 2014.
- I want to conquer my old WIPS and UFOs sitting around my sewing room.
- I want to conquer the clutter in my home and life in general (and of course my sewing room where there is way too much clutter!!)
- I want to conquer my fears and doubts that hold me back from being all that I can be.
- I want to conquer new boundaries and accomplish more than ever before.
- I want to conquer my bad habits and fix them for good.
Lofty goals, I know, but there's no time like the present for change so I'm jumping in and making some changes starting today. And yes, I do set more concrete goals both for sewing and for life that I post to remind and inspire myself but those are measurable and concrete and most importantly personal to me and what I'm doing.
I've got a dG.s quilt top (from May, gasp!!!) all laid out and ready to piece tonight before I head to bed. One step at a time toward a healthier, braver and better me.
Do you make resolutions/goals? Do you choose one word to focus your energies for the year? What are yours? Or do you forget that old tradition and just hang loose?
I'm with you on a lot of those goals! Good luck meeting them in 2014!
ReplyDeleteI haven't ever done the choosing of a work to focus myself, although that might work :) I did think of a few things I'd like to focus on for this year, though. Good for you and getting a bang up start on finishing up those WIP's!
ReplyDeleteI confess I don't make resolutions per se, but I have already started a list for early 2014 - an ongoing list is how I usually roll. I love the word idea though. Mulling that over.............
ReplyDeleteLove the word! I have more conte goals,I just need to be able to focus on those... But I can relate to yours!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! Perfect word for a New Year! I honestly don't make resolutions, but I do have goals. Always on my list...Free Motion quilting. I have yet to reach that goal, so this year I plan on actually taking the time to learn instead of talking about it!
