This is my first post of the New Year. I used to spend holiday time to build a focus for the New Year. I had an easy time creating or reinforcing a previous resolution.
For some reason, I didn’t find the time to think about the New Year. Yet, it is now over a week into the New Year and last year still feels incomplete without a resolution for this year.
Yesterday, a word came to my mind that helped me feel strong and more able to focus on my life’s plan and I immediately wanted to adopt it as my work for the year. Today, I forget the word. Couldn’t have been that great of a word, you think? However, it was so appropriate and right for me that I find it unbelievable that today it isn’t coming to my mind. I can’t think of it! I would have wrote it down, but it didn’t feel necessary—I didn’t think that I could forget it.
I have forgotten it. The more the I try to remember it, the more inaccessible the word feels.
So, today I’m going to try not to remember it so that it will surface in my mind. While I can’t think of it, I know that when I hear it, I’ll know it or if I think of it, I’ll know it. Next time, I’ll write it down before it has time to get buried among the business of my day!
