This year I am going to try something different. I have picked two words (not just one, but two) to help me stay focused this year.

The first one is “Create”. As my name “Crafty Fox” suggests, I love to be crafty and creative. Regardless of the medium – it could be card making, painting (walls or objects, but not pictures because I can’t draw!), digital creations etc. You get the picture. It feels necessary for me to use my creativity, mixing and matching colours, textures and even words… It is something I can do for hours without realising it.

I also want to “create” my life in a way that suits me, my family and how I want to live. I want to create abundance in all things (quality and quantity). But.…

I want to do it in “Flow”. I don’t want it to be forced. I would like to have my creativity flow through all areas of my life and to flow through my work. I would like to be able to flow effortlessly from one project to the next.

How am I going to achieve this?

Firstly, I will continue to focus on my faith in God, as he can open doors that no man or woman can.

Secondly, I will “create” (that word again) structure around how and when I work. Also I will have a plan with goals to reach.

Thirdly, build up my self discipline muscle to stay on course and within the structure and framework created.

Fourthly, continue to connect with like-minded people to support and be supported.

Stay tuned to see how I go. Have you picked a word for the year? Let me know what it is and what it means for you.
