Continuity is the one word that I would use to describe my thoughts for 2022. Continuity in creativity, continuity in relationships, and continuity of personal growth are all important concepts to me. Continuity means being mindful of what you have accomplished so far, but also looking forward to what you can accomplish in the future!

Continuity in My Creativity

Continuity in creativity is important to me because I continue to find new ways of doing things, while also honing the skills that I’ve already learned. Continuity in creativity means trying something new while still maintaining what’s working.

Continuity in creativity requires awareness of your past self and your present self. Continuity in creativity allows you to stop for a moment and enjoy what you’ve created. Continuity in creativity means being mindful of the future, but also being attentive to where you are now.

Continuity in creativity means understanding that it’s okay to try something different even if it takes time to get used to it. Continuity in creativity is about growth.

Continuity in My Relationships

Continuity in relationships is important to me because I want to maintain the connection with my friends, family, and loved ones. Continuity in relationships requires making an effort to stay connected with others.

Continuity in relationships means caring about how the people you love are doing without letting too much time pass between interactions. Continuity in relationships means being mindful of what’s happening in their life.

Continuity in relationships comes from mutual respect and understanding of different points of view. Continuity in relationships is about growth.

Continuity in My Personal Growth

Continuity in my personal growth is important to me because I want to be the best possible version of myself. Continuity in my personal growth means being mindful of my progress, and also being patient with myself.

Continuity in my personal growth means being persistent in my efforts to improve. Continuity in my personal growth requires dedication and consistency.

Continuity in my personal growth means taking time for reflection. Continuity in my personal growth allows me to set goals for myself and achieve them over time.

Continuity in my personal growth means being patient with myself and giving myself time to reach my goals. Continuity in my personal growth is about, well it’s about growth.

Continuity in 2022

I am excited to see what the future holds. I will be looking forward to 2022 with anticipation and curiosity, but also remembering how much progress was made in 2021!

That said, it is important not only to look at the past accomplishments that you have achieved but also to think about where you want your life or projects to go in 2022.

What are some of your goals? I’d love to hear what your #OneWord2022 is or what your goals are for 2022.
