How Can You Be?

Passion Planner™ Roadmap

At the end of the month, I sat down to write my reflections in my planner. The Passion Planner I use has space for looking back at the month and setting goals for the future. When I got to the statement, "Name three things that you can improve this month," I crossed out the "can improve" and changed it to "BE." "Name three things you can BE this month," seemed much more fitting. 

There are certainly seasons in our lives where improvement matters. I've made many lists of ways in which I can improve - and the new year certainly puts us in that space even more. However, I wonder if we are too centered on improving as a culture. What would it be like to focus on what we would like TO BE as we show up in the world? 

Carefully I decided on three things I'd like TO BE in the coming month:

• Be positive.
• Be curious.
• Be thoughtful.

I've chosen the word SHINE for 2023 and these three ways to be will help me to bring my best to the world. Somehow I have a feeling that concentrating on my TO BE list will result in a bit of positive energy moving forward this month. 

Take a moment, what do you hope TO BE in the days ahead?
