No Resolutions - Just Decisions

I decided on New Year's Eve that I was not going to make any resolutions.

Instead, I was going to make decisions.

I don't really know the difference between those words.

I just feel like "decisions" sounds more concrete.

One of the decisions I made was that I was going to have a "word of the month" each month.

January's word of the month is GRATITUDE.

With that word, I have DECIDED that I will wake up and be grateful for something -

And I will then share that each day.

Accountability, People!

On New Year's Day, we had finger food.

That's right, pinwheel sandwiches, a cheeseball with crackers and a chocolate chip cream cheese dip with graham crackers.

I DECIDED that was perfection.

Then, I went to my bed and colored whilst watching football.

I have also DECIDED that I will be working on losing some weight this year.

I will allow myself to feel fear, regret, failure, anxiety -  but I will not live in those feelings.

I will continue to invite comparison, fear, and shame along with me on this journey - however I will not allow them to be my voice any longer.

I also DECIDED that I was going to re-brand my business.

No more Sassy Beauty Supply with long group names and page names in social media.

I spent a lot of time thinking, debating in my head, and researching while I colored and watched football.

I came up with Heidi Rae & Co.

Rae, as you know, is not my middle name.

But to a heavenly angel, it always was.

So, Heidi Rae it is.

Lots of decisions this year!
