I stopped making “resolutions” a few years ago for the new year. I just felt like I was constantly “failing” at them because they were almost unattainable and I got sick and tired of setting myself up for unrealistic expectations. So about three years ago I started rolling with intentions and inspiration I have for each new year. Ways I can work on myself, but with knowing changes happen, life throws curve balls and I can handle hiccups thrown my way without “ruining” a goal.

So I thought I would share my inspiration for this year. I love finding quotes and pinning them/saving them in a folder on my phone. This way I can look back and them and essentially it’s motivation and a reminder for the year’s intention. 2021’s intention is ‘not holding back’. For so many years and for so long I let my reservations and anxiety keep me from doing things and I have been and am working really hard to change that. I don’t want my anxiety to get the best of me or keep me from doing things I love or want to do both in my business and my life. I want my kids to see they can do hard things and that even if it doesn’t work out, it’s not a failure, but a lesson learned and good experience.

So quotes I love for 2021, enjoy.
