For the past decade, instead of establishing New Year’s resolutions, I’ve selected a focus word as my guiding light for the year.
Last year I selected a short phrase: Joie de Vivre—joy of life.
As we start a new decade, this will be the first time that I’m choosing a repeat.
Joie de Vivre has been—and continues to be—so incredibly fulfilling that I’m choosing to embody and focus on it again.

Joie de Vivre—A delight in being alive; an exuberant, keen, or buoyant enjoyment of life; an exultation of spirit.
Joie de Vivre—A philosophy of life, a sentiment that involves one’s whole being.
Do you have a focus word this year?
