In honor of the annual Chris Brogan tradition of giving 3 words that he wants to focus his life on in the new year, below is my take on his tradition with my own explanation.
My 3 Word For 2012 Are:
Comeback: I have had a tough couple of years, taken a beating and try to keep pushing forward. This year, I am feeling a comeback coming on.
Be: If you look up the definition of be in the dictionary it says ‘to exist or live.’ When you think about it, too often we get caught up in things going on around us and we forget to actually do what we should or want to do. So I am going to focus on being in the moment and living a little bit more this year.
Myself: I think this word ties in with the other two. I think when you are down and you aren’t focusing on yourself, you lose yourself a bit. So the focus is going to be turned back onto myself. And trying to remember that I don’t have to be anything except myself.
As an aside, if you list the three words together you get: Comeback. Be Yourself. Which is pretty fun to think about.
I’d love to see yours.
