2026 Word of the Year
Hi friends!
So each year I don’t necessarily set goals per se, but rather I choose a word of the year and work to do things that serve that word. Last year I was feeling very unmotivated in terms of my blog, my social pages, my home…I felt like I needed a reset and to focus on family life. Because of that time, it gave me time to think, plan, and consider what direction I want to go with all of these.
It wasn’t until the last quarter of the year, I started to get my motivation back. I’m feeling more determined this year in regards to my blog, my social pages, and my home. So I decided that my word of the year this year would be “action.” I am someone who sometimes puts things off that are easy and actually don’t take that much time. Why? Great question. I wish I knew. π Or things I know my husband can do, I wait on him without trying to learn it for myself. This year I would like to try to take more into my own hands and learn some skills even if it feels hard or scary. Mistakes will happen and that’s just part of learning! Some of the things I want to do in my home have been projects I haven’t gotten to for years, like putting up picture frame moulding in my primary bedroom. I also want to add some type of moulding in my formal living/dining area. I’m between two ideas so I will need to commit. I’ll have more details on everything I want to accomplish this year in terms of home projects in another blog post soon!
In terms of my blog, I just need to prioritize it more. It’s hard sometimes in the days of social media. So much time is taken for filming and editing that many times other things fall by the wayside. This year, I am trying to work smarter, not harder. π I have a list of posts I’d like to write and just haven’t. My goal is to try to do at least one post per month. I also want to engage more with you all, so I’m working on getting a newsletter started! This will allow me to share more behind the scenes and a little more of what’s going on in my life. I will likely make this a monthly thing as well, at least to start. In terms of socials I just want to keep a consistent flow of content that feels sustainable with a mix of home decor/favorite finds, DIY, casual fashion, and general styling/helpful tips for home and DIY.
What goals do you have this year? Do you opt for a Word of the Year instead, like me? Let me know in the comments!
Speak soon, friends!
