It&#8217;s one of those things that really works for me and helps my sometimes manic and over-scheduled brain focus on what my gut knows is right. AND is worth my Time. (Time should always get a capital T! Like Mr. T., Time does pity the fools.)<\/p>\n<p>In thinking about this year&#8217;s word, I kept returning to the concept of all-in. Yes, it&#8217;s two words or a one-word hyphenate, but it has one meaning for me. This is a defining year for my business. It will be a turning point and I&#8217;m determined to steer it in an upward direction. The only way to accomplish this is to be all-in.<\/p>\n<p>All-in works for my family and my home. It does not mean I need to &#8220;have it all&#8221; (which is such a BS media creation anyway.) All-in means that whatever I am focused on at the time will get my full attention. Be it my boys, my husband, creating a new product, filling an order or folding the laundry, I am all-in.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve listed specific goals in the past in these posts. I won&#8217;t be doing that this year. I&#8217;ve learned that publishing a list is not effective for me. I need pen and paper to cross out and add scribbles in the margins and to eventually make a fresh list for the new to-do-s.<\/p>\n<p>A new year, a new &#8220;word&#8221;.
