New Year’s Resolutions? Waste Of Time… Do This Instead

Don’t make New Year’s resolutions. Choose your three words instead. Says Chris Brogan.

Unbelievably, I have now been following this process since 2015. And what a ride it’s been!

Here I will take some space to reflect on my words from 2023 and share with you the words I’ve chosen for 2024.

I hope I chose right this time… (I say, looking as though I’m about to pull the lever on a high-stakes slot machine).

Reflecting on My 3 Words from 2023

Ease — I got to experience some ease as I was beginning year two of the Team, Management, and Leadership Program. With year one under my belt, I felt like less of a fish out of water. I also felt like I had more freedom to do what was required on my terms.

Yet, this sense of freedom and ease did not last long as I butted heads with leadership, and my old patterns of “grit it and bear it” showed up. I can see how that way of being only leads to burnout and it doesn’t work.

I felt like the number one thing I got out of the leadership program, though, was freedom of self-expression. I had to wade through some traumas to get to that point, mind you.
