My Word For The New Year — My Haute Talk

As I mentioned a few weeks back I like to pick a word or words for the upcoming year. This helps me stay focused on certain goals throughout the year. I have spent the last few weeks thinking about my word for 2020 and I really have had a hard time coming up with something…

When picking my word for the New Year my process is very simple. I journal about what my upcoming goals will be, I pray about those goals and a word that will impact and keep me focused on those goals.

For some reason this time around when my word for 2020 kept popping up I kept trying to push the word away because to me it makes no sense. Yes that is the stubbornness in me. I have written this word down, looked up its definition and analyzed it. I was almost at the point of just waiting a few more weeks to pick a word because surely something better will come along, right?

Yesterday morning while checking Facebook I had a notification that my friend Laura had replied to something I had commented on. In her reply she included the word I have been wrestling with. UGH! I was so aggravated (just kidding). I texted her and let her know how this word has annoyed me. Her including it in her response was like a sign that this is to be my word for the upcoming year.
