New Year's Resolutions vs. New Year Words and Affirmations


Someone in a Twitch stream that I frequent had mentioned they no longer use New Year's Resolutions, but instead use words that they can say when times are hard or stressful to remind them what they want or expect for their new year. These, really, are Affirmations that can be said at any time to place intention into whatever you do. You intend to lose weight or have a certain amount in your bank account so you would have words that positively remind and guide you to your goal. 

So you could say, "My New Year's Resolution is to lose 10 lbs by summer" or you could say "Healthy Eating" as your goal for the year. If you want to do it by exercising more then your word would be "Exercise" or "Yoga". 

I have seen many people say they have only one word for the year. I have several. Over the past year it has been brought to my attention I suffer with issues regarding my self worth, fear, anxiety and health. So far my words are "Worth", "Joy", "Love", "Healing" and "Financial Freedom". Notice that the things I feel are negative words/emotions like fear and anxiety but the things I am affirming are positive like worth, joy and love. When you say words that are positive you increase the chances of improving your mood and drawing more positivity into your life. Another word I love is "Ripple" because with any financial freedom that comes my way I want to ripple that out to those around me and help them bring and attain joy, love, healing and financial freedoms.

It has been said that New Year Resolutions are quickly forgotten, tweaked because you chose something beyond what you are capable or actually want to achieve. However, I feel, choosing words of purpose are far more attainable. What do you think? What are your words or resolutions for 2023?
