Episode 85: Keyword of the Year
Welcome to season two of CEO Meets Homeschool. My name is Tamiya Parker and I am both a CEO and homeschool mom to my four boys. Welcome to episode 85. Today I'm going to talk about my keyword of the year. I've mentioned a few prior past keywords that I've had and sometimes I won't share my keyword until the year has ended and then other times I just don't care. It probably just depends on the keyword. And last year, I don't think I've mentioned this at all, last year, my keyword was double down and I feel like I had so much work and so many obstacles last year that every time it just felt rough, I was like, double down, get it done, work hard. And that's both across. On both sides of things, both on business side and my family side, like life gets crazy. We have seasons. So this year I had a hard time picking my keyword. And then finally I just came up, it's actually two words and it's. Healthy together is what I decided on, and that also kind of, I can kind of loop it together with the fact that we are here skiing for the season, and I really wanted to do things so that my kiddos will take ownership of being healthier as well. And so I thought we could tie skiing for at least quarter one into this healthy together. So what I did is, because with all the accountability and just trying to be very intentional, you want to, whenever you come up with a goal, you should always try to make it a measurable goal. So in this case, if I want to loop skiing to quarter one, I thought, well, how about I put a number to it. So I am trying to have a ski as a family 30 times before the winter is done. Now I looped in a bit of December because it's like a, to have the number. I opened up winter, but by the end of first quarter, the skiing will be done. So my goal is for the winter or Q1 to have completed 30 ski sessions. And so we've been on the mountain a lot. I love it. And to be honest, I am feeling a little stronger and healthier just because we're moving and getting out more. So, trying to combine a little bit of fun with, uh, being healthier. And so that was Q1. And then what happened is I'm thinking of doing something similar with every quarter. And I've got an idea. I might share more as, uh, Q2 and quarter three, uh, unfold. But with quarter three, I'm really excited because we should be Here in the Glacier National Park area. When it's incredibly beautiful weather, so there should be some good opportunities to be outside and get some fitness in. So I just figured I would share my keyword of the year and if you have a word that kind of motivates you this year, it's kind of a fun tool to use and it can just, you can be as creative as you want with it.
