Shift

Well, I am putting my word right up top....Shift 

I really love the thinking behind this idea of choosing one word that will help be my focus this year.

You can do a lot with this.

  Last week I was listening to a woman share a great idea for establishing your 'shift'. She was suggesting that you create a postcard with images that

represent direction.

For instance, on her postcard she had a mosaic of 4 images.

One, was her cottage 

it represented escape from the hectic pace of her life.. 

Another, was a symbol that represented a particular goal in her workplace...

Anyway, I think you see where this is going.

The point she was making was that we often get so scattered, lack focus

that we don't set our own direction.

I loved it when she said that these images were intended as markers for what you needed to

walk towards

and that often it just required a shift in our thinking

or a shift in our attitude

It didn't require a monumental change

as that is what often leads to failure....

that shift which allows us to adjust our vision slightly to the left, 

or to the right or

perhaps even do a 180

may be all it takes.

So my word is SHIFT......

What's Yours?
