my goal this year isn’t to let myself be bigger or bolder it isn’t to finally let go of everything that’s been holding me back honestly I have plenty of all that already what I need in 2012 is to learn how to shut up &listen to my loved ones, to my body, to my frenemies, to my professors, to the universe so I am going to try to pick up a few new habits that will help me listen, &help me learn to use my voice in new &quieter ways so far I know I’d like to get in the habit of having phone conversations with loved ones doing 20 minutes of yoga sitting down &being quiet &still for the amount of time it takes to drink a mug of tea writing &doing nothing else for thirty minutes at a time each day or a few times a week. I’m going to think of seven more habits over the course of the next few days, &hopefully have a year-long plan structured out for myself on february 1. let’s see if I can get in the habit of being a more listening, loving, &receptive person by the time 2013 rolls in.

my goal this year isn’t to let myself be bigger or bolder

it isn’t to finally let go of everything that’s been holding me back

honestly

I have plenty of all that already

what I need in 2012 is to learn how to shut up &listen

to my loved ones, to my body, to my frenemies, to my professors, to the universe

so I am going to try to pick up a few new habits that will help me listen, &help me learn to use my voice in new &quieter ways

so far I know I’d like to get in the habit of

  • having phone conversations with loved ones
  • doing 20 minutes of yoga
  • sitting down &being quiet &still for the amount of time it takes to drink a mug of tea
  • writing &doing nothing else for thirty minutes at a time

each day or a few times a week. I’m going to think of seven more habits over the course of the next few days, &hopefully have a year-long plan structured out for myself on february 1. let’s see if I can get in the habit of being a more listening, loving, &receptive person by the time 2013 rolls in.
