Weekly Intention: This week looks reasonably ordinary so I want to take advantage of that and do some exercise especially because I’m traveling the following week. While in Zurich, I hope to do both cardio and some pilates/yoga/weights so I think getting into the groove this week will help. I want to keep the week as low key as possible. i will hug my kids, i will rest when i am not working, i will read and sleep. maybe i can journal if i feel i am at a place to do it. but i am keeping the bar low this week.
This month’s intention is: Stronger Together: Time to enjoy the company of others. Go out and socialize. Appreciate the community you have. Spend time with your family. Bask in the joy of friendships+community+family. What’s one thing you can do to appreciate your people? Hmm this is interesting, especially both for how i am feeling lately (don’t want to socialize at all) and what i want to do next year for my word (will involve a lot more socializing.) I’m going to have to think about this one.
One way I will stretch this week: i am going to tell myself to slow down.
One boundary I will set this week: time with my kids. time with jake.
This week, I will focus on pleasing: the future karen. i will spend some time thinking about 2019.
One new thing I will learn this week: more physics probably 🙂
One area where I will go deeper this week: i will think about some of the shifts i want to make in my life for 2019. my thinking, my routines, my appearance :).
What do I need to sit with this week? how to understand what makes me come alive
I am looking forward to: my trip, it’s been a while since I was in Zurich
This week’s challenges: no glaring challenges this week, thankfully.
Top Goals:
- Work: december summit, thinking about what’s next, documenting my thoughts.
- Personal: exercise. and 2019 plans that’s all we’re going to put down this week!
- Family: just spend a lot of time with my people, saying good things to all of them
I will focus on my values:
- Love: i want to speak more kindly. i am going to repeat this one.
- Learn: learn what i want.
- Peace: peace with not having the answers.
- Service: to sitting with things.
- Gratitude: for my kids, and my husband. i am so lucky.
This week, I want to remember: that the days are long but the years are short and i want to use mine well.
