Dreaming Again: 2022 Vision
2021 was NOT the year. Let me start with that.
However, I know that every setback, trial, disappointment, and trigger has served to strengthen me and give me a better understanding on how to navigate obstacles to come.
One thing that I appreciate about the word VISION is that doesn’t only negate a future plan, but it also relates to what I see in retrospect. And what I see looking back is that it was necessary for me to walk through those moments of having my heart ripped out of my chest in order to recognize its strength to keep beating, even when it felt like it couldn’t go on. (hey look, my enneagram 4 drama is back in my writing!)
But anyway, this post isn’t about 2021. But I wanted to share that much to say that I am choosing to enter 2022 with hope, despite the constant disappointment that 2021 brought.
So…… 2022.
The word says to have a vision and make it plain, so I just wanted to give myself a space to publicly dream out loud.
I want to pray audacious prayers. I want to pray boldly and believe that what I ask, God will do—because that’s what His word says.
I want to see tangible growth in my business, and desire for this to be my full-time work:
Meeting with clients, creating content, building a team and programs that benefit people and help them take hold of their power and have meaningful connections.
I want to publish my book, and finally get past the writer’s block that I’ve had for the last 4 years.
I want to know that I’m making powerful choices, and trust that I don’t have to fear making mistakes.
I want to like myself more again: Feel confident in my body, confident in my fashion, confident in my relationship and in what value I have to offer to those around me.
More than anything, I want my intimacy with God back. My prayers lately have consisted of saying, “God, I miss you so much.” And I’ve been saying that a lot. I just want deeper connection with God, a consistent habit of being in the Word and in prayer… I want to fall in love with His Word again, and actually believe what it says more than before.
By the end of this year, I want this vision to be my reality. Since it’s written, I can keep moving and adjusting to stay in this direction. Vision helps us to have direction, and it honestly feels so good to dream again for myself.
