How to use a word of the year for 2018

This year I decided to move away from the traditional “New Year’s Resolutions” and pick a word of the year. A word of the year is a word that describes how you want to feel. You can use it to guide your decision making and actions- instead of giving you to-dos and tasks.

Then I paired it with a vision board. A vision board gives a visual manifestation of your goal. It works best if you put it somewhere that you will see every day. After doing some soul searching on what I want this year, I came up with an overwhelming feeling that PEACE would be my word. So, as I make my goals and think about choices that I want to make for the new year, they will all reflect back to PEACE. Doesn’t that sound peaceful 🙂

Here is how I assembled my board:

Blank slate- I found this cute cork board at Target, but you can even use a poster board! Here is a link to a similar one on Amazon. 

Assembling the parts- using paper designed for a scrapbook, similar to this linked here- (side note~ I have used this paper for multiple crafty projects or it is perfect for scrapbooking too)

The quote of the year! It is easy to be peaceful when everything is going “right”, but to remain peaceful when things are chaotic, that is real peace. Finding real peace is my number one goal for this year.

Daily goals- Here is where I write in the things that I want to make sure that I do DAILY. Big goals are great, but it is those things that we do on a daily basis that add up the most!!

Psalm 34:14

My kids and I (aka Tribe Squad) made some goals for us for the year.  We actually have a “Tribe Squad” vision board that is in the kitchen, but I also wanted to add the goals from that board on my own personal one also as a reminder.

A place for my blog goals- I would like to start a daily schedule, so this card with a spot for each day was perfect!!!

A place for my fitness goals for the year.

So, there you have it, a vision board AND a word of the year! Do you have any fun ways that you are using to stick to your goals! I’d love to hear about them!! Thanks for stopping by.
