Now, I am a planner and doer all year long and I am always setting goals for myself. But there is truly something magical about that fresh clean slate of a new 365 days that gets me fired up!!
I started out the year by making my workplace one of happiness, creativity, light and warmth. My previous space (aka: my dressing room) was cold, not well organized and very little natural light. I decided, after a prompt from my very wise mentor, Chalene Johnson (you NEED this woman in your life if you do not have her already!!), to relocate my dining room to another spot and take over this space as my office. Can I just say how I LOVE love LOVE working here?
This took me about 2 days to set up, but since the move I have been fired up on all cylinders and whipping my own arse into shape. I feel like I double dosed on pre workout here! #gameON

| I started my inspiration wall and again, this will grow as I add things that appeal to me and are perfect for the space. This part excites me! :-) |
I am still not done....I am now hunting for beautiful pieces to make this space even more special, but they will come...I need to love what I put in here so I will know it when I see it. Methinks a trip to Urban Barn (aka: Highway to the Danger Zone) might be in order.
I am going to be honest..these past few months I have been doing a LOT of figuring out what I have to offer and how I am going to go about doing it. I also am not settling in life. I want something different and to get that I need to do things that I have never done before.
I also struggled for most of this year with a computer that hated me and I seriously wanted to catapult it into the Goshen Lake (some people will get this). So, again, also following the advice of my soul sister, Chalene...I did it...inhaleeee, exhale....I bought a Macbook Pro!! My life has been truly improved 300%. Thanks Chalene, yet again.
Here is where it gets good. I still need to purge some parts of my life so that is part of my goal for January. I have this handy little chart to cross off the days in a row that I proactively do some steps towards making that happen. This is part of an AWESOME bundle I downloaded from Female Entrepreneur Association.
I am still trying to figure out what my treat will be at the end. I have an idea.......***cue angels singing***. I also left the accountability partner spot blank on purpose. I need to be accountable to ME first and foremost to make this happen.
I have been feeling ON FIRE, so I also did something...took a leap of faith & created a wonderful Facebook group for other women in business for themselves. This was created mostly because I NEED accountability...I need to stay focused and on target! I figured it would be much more awesome if I had a schwackload of other brilliant & fiery strong women along for the ride. So I bring you #UNcommon. I want to do common things in the most uncommon manner, day in day out. This is the most exciting thing to me!! If you need this in your life (or you know someone who could use the daily infusion of awesomeness) come on over and request to join the fun!! I would love to have you. Join here >>> #UNcommon
I have been settling in with my planner every single day too. I have my month mapped out in advance and this planner from Danielle LaPorte really spoke to me, so I chose this for 2016. I love the layout and the little parts on each page where I get to spew snippets of creativity and dreams every day.
This week is a big week as well, as I lead my team into our very first Planner Party. I hope to inspire them to create & OWN those goals, then do something wonderful about smashing them!
This was a rather lengthy spiel but I am feeling GOOD! And those moments are meant to be shared!
Do you have a favourite yearly planner you use or maybe a new one you are testing out? I would love to hear from you!
