Write One Word

        In January I started tracking my habits and emotions using a bullet journal. One of my favorite pages for each month is "Write One Word". Each month I have decided to focus on one word as my theme for the month. 

    January I focused on permission. I wanted the daily reminder to give myself permission to be human. So often I find myself feeling guilty for saying no, not knowing enough, not doing enough or being too emotional. Giving myself the remainder daily that I have permission to not be enough is giving myself permission to be human.

    February I focused on agility. I watched a TedTalk about having emotional agility and it really spoke to me. I enjoyed the idea of being agile with my emotions, and learning to be emotionally flexible in all situations.

    This month I am focusing on mindfulness. I don't want to ignore my constant, at times whirlwind, of thoughts. However, I want to practice being at ease with my thoughts. My goal is to focus on being okay with just being in the moment with my thoughts without acting upon them immediately.
