This year, the word that started to come to me was tone or tune.
The idea of setting the tone and tuning my approach.
There was an underlying theme of music.
I was drawn to the Year of Wonder book with a classical music score each day.
Then, the idea of tone turned into vibe.
Some partnering with ChatGPT identified tone as what you set and vibe as what you feel.
This led me to the word overture…not sure how I found it.
This is the piece at the beginning of an orchestra performance.
The piece that sets the tone and vibe of the experience.
This is my word.
While it requires explanation, this is the word.
I want to set the tone and vibe this year.
Creating the environment for magic to happen.
For relationships to thrive.
For work to advance forward.
For relaxation.
For health.
The list continues.
Most importantly, I’ve spent the last seven years inner-focused on my growth.
This year, I want to continue to shift outward.
Supporting the journey of others.
Creating the atmosphere in which they can thrive.
