During a holiday get-together recently (because they can’t meet for a simple lunch without devising some sort of plan), my dear Chicks came up with the plan for 2013. Each month, they will share a power word with blog readers. The power word will be one that you can say (like a mantra) to push you through the month and maybe even the year. These aren’t your average words of encouragement—they’re a bit more playful than that — designed to inspire you and keep you moving forward all year long.
And, what better word to start off the new year than zoom!
Use this month to focus your creative energy and zero in on those projects that have been gathering dust. Forget perfection, forget self-editing. ZOOM! Ignore that little voice in your head that says, “This could be better.” Instead, punch out that draft, sketch out your designs, zoom along to the finish line and let the self-editor off the hook until your first draft is complete. Let your heart lead you more than your head. Sometimes it’s the only way to finish that project or idea you’ve been sitting on.
How will you zoom! this month?
Happy New Year!
Reblogged this on Wenona "Buffy" Gardner.
Thanks for sharing, Buffy! Wishing you much ZOOM at the start of this new year!
Love the idea of grabbing that momentum for the New Year! I just love the way the 4 Chicks embrace creativity. You’re an inspiration to me 🙂 I’m going to have to pick a word to help me zoom into this next year, too!
