Word of the Year 2022

Choosing a word for 2022

Here we are on the count down to the new year, and the talk of goals and resolutions has started to show up in my news feed already. I don’t really like to set resolutions for myself. I find I don’t stay focused on them long enough for them to actually ever make it past the 90-day mark.

For a few years, I have started to think about a word that resonates with me in early December. This year, I am sure there will be a handful of words that people are finding themselves drawn to bring family and community spirit back into our lives as we seem to be still recovering from the past 24 months. More than once it has seemed like we were on a roller coaster ride with all that has gone on. Putting words full of love for our family and our friends at the front of our minds is natural.

I felt strongly about those words that brought love, clarity and family when I started mulling things over in my mind, but one thing I am determined to keep going throughout the course of 2022 is my focus.

I often find my focus lacking as life grabs a hold of me around April and puts me in the fast lane. Before I know it, I am into October and counting down the days to my December break. One word that keeps popping up in my mind is manifest. It is resonating with me on so many levels and I have that good feeling when I think of it as my word for 2022.

In 2022 I want to manifest the following

I want to strengthen my willpower to see success with my lifelong dreams. To feel my way through the times we are facing and find that break in the chaos that brings me through the other side to where my path is straight and true.

I want to strengthen my relationship with my clients better. To form strong and lasting friendships that have me as a cheerleader in their corner. I want to see them share their successes and life lessons.

I want to manifest the time to spend numerous carefree hours with my horse. It has been way too long since I sat on his back and felt the power rippling from his haunches and through his front end. Even if it during a hack on a summer evening. I long for this!

I want to connect with my family and friends. To be in their corner, even if it is from my own corner of the world. We all need this.

Perhaps most of all, I want to connect with myself. I want to be the best me I can possibly be because, let’s be honest, when I am at my best, it is only then that I can do my best for you.

Hey there, I'm Nicole

I live on the prairies, where my dreams have merged with the view. It is quiet from the noises of suburbia yet loud with the noises of horses, sheep and chickens. Once in a while, I leave to wander in the streets, but always a part of my heart is left here on the hill.
