Happy, Happy New Year

Just popping in to wish my *3* followers and countless anonymous readers a happy new year! New years are always so crisp and white, and while the resolution posts are always a tad redundant, I really am inspired by all of the hope and goodness people are exuding. These years are going quicker and it's becoming an exciting time for me-the early twenties! This season of life is marked by college graduations, long term boyfriends, proposals, newlyweds-a few of my friends already have families! Growing up is kind of magical that way.

I've chosen this year to pen down a few attitude and life style changes, but overall I'm going to pick a word and fill these next 360 days with it.

FOCUS.

I am incredibly passionate and creative, and incredibly gifted in the realm of always having new ideas, new dreams, new aspirations. But, true to my Pisces nature, I'm a bit of a day dreamer. I see the end goal, not the process along the way. I get distracted by new ideas and dreams and trivial things. Add in your average anxiety about the future that comes with this age and I can be my own worst enemy. This year, I'm taking a big deep breath and inhaling lots of FOCUS. I'm gearing up for my TENTH semester in college-and not the last, but let's kick butt and take names so it can be one of the final ones.  I'm preparing to start looking for a better job-one that I truly enjoy and grow from. I'm preparing to take my health into my own hands by exercising more, and eating better. I'm going to invest into my business and my brand-who knows,  I may even be here more!

In 2014, I started a small business, briefly became a social media coordinator in both of my jobs, attended concerts, stayed out all night with new friends, bar tended for a bit, moved into my own apartment, met Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles AND Misha Collins, welcomed THREE new nephews, grew in Grace, and followed my heart out into crashing waves. It all started out as just a night underneath paper confetti on January 1, 2014...

Are you focusing on a particular word this year? What is it? What do you hope to accomplish with it?
