Look Pray Do

I read in a Chris Brogan post a few years ago about coming up with 3 words for each year to help remind you of what you're focus is.

The three words I chose for 2019 are

Look | Pray | Do

Why? I decided that I didn't want to walk around in a fog or in auto-pilot this year. As I figure on actually looking at things I am learning to actually be present in things I am doing instead of always being focused on the future. As the year goes on I am learning to look at things in a simpler way, with a beginner's mindset, which is challenging at the 54th level. (meme reference)

Prayer is important. Prayer is challenging. Prayer changes things. So I wanted to focus on it this year. So far so good, though I still feel guilty when I meditate without praying.

I tend to stay in planning mode. Always looking ahead, probing for threats and plotting ways around them. "Do" is helping me get into action so that in 2020 I don't have to say I didn't do things. So far so good!

Those are my three words this year. What're yours?
