Maybe You're Like Me with Alicia Watson

Religion & Spirituality


Maybe you're like me and you're taking control of yourself.We’re in the second quarter of the year. This is the time that most people fall off the wagon in terms of their goals and resolutions that they set for themselves in January. That was typically my pattern but since my word of the year is INTENTIONAL, I am happy to report that I have been on track.  During the first quarter of the year I was intentional about my rest. Which isn’t typical. Usually we’re full steam ahead at the top of a new year with work and goals and striving, but I decided to evaluate this year on a case by case basis and I acknowledged  that I just didn’t have it. I realized though that resting, taking an honest assessment of where I was in order to give myself permission to rest, was fruitful labor. I have been intentional about looking at my habits and I have a habit of burning out after pushing myself to show up. So I didn’t. A part of being intentional is understanding the agency that we have and I want to keep the party going.Going into the second quarter I started being intentional about learning how we form habits so that I could effectively change my own. In this episode, I share some of the ways I have been able to stay on track in changing habits, what I have learned, share some advice and encourage you to pick the reins back up and get back on track if you got a little distracted or to stay the course if you've been focused.We might be more alike than you think...
