Declare a Theme for 2009!
Discover the Power of Clear Intention
For the last 13 years, I have been declaring a theme at the start of each new year. This is a powerful way to set an overarching intention that guides my decisions and actions throughout the year.
I would invite you to give this a try and see how it alters your world! It is more powerful than you can believe... until you try it!
Declaring a theme is not the same process as setting goals. Setting goals, on paper, is another extremely important process that I highly encourage. It is much more detailed and specific.
Themes are very broad and general. The reason for declaring a theme is that it will help to guide your goal setting, and your decision making process throughout the year. Whenever you wonder whether you should do something or not, you can ask yourself whether it supports your theme or not.
Perhaps some examples will make this a bit easier to understand. Here are some of my themes from years past:
* Balance my mental, physical and spiritual health
* Balance my masculine/feminine sides appropriately
* No crises - handle everything with calm & peace
* Year of the body - get healthy!
* Enjoy My Life!
You get the picture! Declare something that speaks to you. Perhaps something that you feel a yearning to engage with.
I get quiet and allow my theme to choose me. Sometimes it is immediate and obvious and comes to me before I even go looking for it! Other times it requires some patience to find it.
Give it a try! Declare a theme for your 2009 and watch what happens in your world!
