Every year I participate in One Little Word – basically you chose a word as your focus or mantra or goal for the entire year. I usually start thinking about it around New Years and choose my word by the first week or so of the year. But this year I kept putting it off because I was just overwhelmed – I spent the time between Christmas and New Years sick and overwhelmed with all those things I wanted to have finished before the year was over but had just… kept putting off. <\/p>\n\n\n

So when I thought about all those things I didn’t check off my year-long to-do list and all those things I kept saying I needed to finish but never actually got around to I thought my word for 2024 should have something to do with motivation or achievement or completion but didn’t really like any of those words. But I knew it needed to be along the lines of getting stuff done that I’d been putting off, the main thing being finishing my MA thesis. I just needed to sit down and DO IT<\/span><\/em><\/strong>. And there it was. <\/p>\n\n\n

There’s honestly so much on my plate and I’m overwhelmed and stuck at the just getting started stage. I’m struggling to take that first step to getting it done and not everything is super difficult or time consuming… I just need to do it and get it over with. <\/p>\n\n\n

So this year is about stepping up and getting started and checking things off that more long-term to-do list. In order to get all those things done I just need to DO IT<\/span><\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n
