#1319 - Harvest
Harvest is my guiding word for 2023.
This year, I didn't choose the word.
The word came to me when I wasn't looking.
Last year, my guiding word was "extraordinary". I started 2022 with the explicit intention of living an extraordinary year.
And it has been extraordinary.
Just not in the way I imagined or wanted it.
It has been a year of extraordinary struggles and pain that asked me to dig deep and find resources I didn't know I had in me.
The universe listened to my intention but chose its own way to manifest it.
So, this year I was resisting the idea of choosing an intention.
But then, while I was in a conversation, the intention came to me. I heard my voice sharing it as if it was coming from somewhere else. For sure, those words were not originating from my rational mind.
I heard myself saying that in 2023 I want to harness the ability of my father to manifest ideas into reality. He was an entrepreneur and a good one. I want to harness his energy and infuse it into my doing. And then, while I was hearing my voice talking about my father, my word for 2023 came up: harvest.
I set the intention for 2023 to be the year of harvesting for me.
What is your guiding word for 2023?
