Intentional

My word for 2025 is Intentional. It’s going to be a big ask.

In no particular order:

I want to be intentional about how I spend my time and with whom.

I want to be intentional about the food I put in my mouth and the words that come out. (If you know me, you know I occasionally speak first and think later; not a great recipe to win friends and influence people.)

I want to be intentional about healthy living: mind, body, and soul.

I want to be intentional about the examples I set for my grandsons. They are both teenagers who are currently willing to accept my suggestions about driving, college, and life in general, but I know the clock is tickin’.

I want to be intentional about my thoughts and actions. I saw a meme: “Ask yourself if what you’re doing today is getting you closer to where you want to be tomorrow.”

I also saw another meme: “You can’t be disappointed in the results you didn’t get from the work you didn’t do.”

Intentional.

What’s your word?
