Adopting a dog, buying an apartment, moving to another country... What are your resolutions for 2026?
This year, I’m doing something a little different. Instead of diving headfirst into long lists and rigid plans, I’m pausing. Taking a step back to reflect on the year behind me, acknowledge what truly shaped me, and intentionally decide where I want my energy to go in the year ahead.
Intentionality, I’ve learned, is far more satisfying than resolutions. It’s about clarity, focus, and aligning actions with values—not pressure, perfection, or performance.
Why I’m Choosing Reflection Over Rigid Goals
The past year was full of lessons, milestones, and moments that deserve recognition. Before planning what’s next, I want to:
-
Celebrate wins, however small
-
Learn from challenges without judgment
-
Release what no longer serves me
-
Define what truly matters in 2026
For me, this process starts with tools that guide reflection without pressure.

How I’m Using It
Each morning, I dedicate a few moments to writing, reflecting, and answering prompts that feel right for me. It’s not about “finishing” the journal—it's about engaging with a purposeful, intentional practice. This approach makes goal-setting feel authentic, meaningful, and, most importantly, sustainable.
