A Free Exercise to Help You Prepare for a Fulfilling New Year

Happy New Year! 

As we say good bye to a year that taught us the value of slowing down and stretched us in ways most of us hadn’t experienced before, it’s a good time to think about what you want to do in 2021, the year we put the pandemic behind us (knock on wood). 

I’m not a huge fan of New Years resolutions. But I do believe in the power of intention. Identifying what you want is the first step towards attracting it to your life. 

As you kick off the New Year, carve out about one hour of dedicated, relaxing time to become intentional about your year ahead by answering the questions below. This exercise was adopted from yearcompass.

I recommend copying and pasting the below questions in an application that will allow you to type your answers (except the first question- do try drawing if the mood strikes you!).

Here’s to a New Year and a New, Happier, More Fulfilled You!
