Today is my 45th birthday, which means it is also the 5th anniversary of the Disrupt For Good blog, and a natural moment to pause and take stock. Some of you have been here the whole time, so thank you!
For the last few years, my January message to you has included sharing my word of the year. A few years ago, it was solidarity. Taking a posture of solidarity left me angry most of the year, so the following year my word was grace. Then last year, my word was flow (I had actually forgotten, and had to look it up just now). At the time, I defined flow as ease and movement — the ability to adjust to circumstances while maintaining a core sense of direction and purpose. These words are usually chosen after a couple of weeks of less work and more time for reflection and future planning over my Christmas break. This year, I’ve done the same reflection and planning, but no single word has surfaced. Instead, I’ve been thinking more about how I want to make decisions about my time and attention. I thought I’d share it here in case it is helpful to you, too, in case you also like to think about these kinds of things at the beginning of a new year.
