Springing Forward: Embracing the Season of Action
The clocks have moved forward, the days are getting longer, and spring is officially here! And just like that, I feel the shift—not just in time, but in energy. For the past three months, I’ve been in deep thought, reflecting, planning, and sitting with some things. But now? Now it’s time to move.
Winter gave me the space to pause, process, and prepare. But let’s be real—sometimes we can mistake stillness for stagnation. Thinking time is necessary, but so is knowing when we’re stalling or making excuses. So, as we welcome spring, let’s make a commitment: This season is about stepping into action. No more waiting for the perfect moment, the ideal setup, or the magic sign. The time to start is now, and spring is the perfect reminder of fresh starts and new beginnings.
SPRING Into Action
To really embrace this fresh start, I’m using the word SPRING as a reminder to move with intention. Here’s how:
S – Start where you are. No more waiting for the perfect moment. The best time to begin is now. Even small steps add up to big progress.
P – Prioritize what matters. Energy flows where attention goes. Focus on what truly aligns with your goals and well-being. If it’s not helping you grow or glow, it might not deserve your energy.
R – Rely on consistency. Small, daily actions lead to big results. Whether it’s our morning routine, workouts, or business moves, consistency is key. Motivation comes and goes, but discipline keeps us moving forward.
I – Invest in yourself. Our growth, our joy, and our peace deserves your attention. Make time for the things that nourish you, whether it’s self-care, education, or creative passions.
N – Navigate with confidence. Trust that you have everything you need to take the next step. Move forward boldly, knowing that you are capable and deserving of the success and happiness you seek.
G – Give yourself grace. Progress over perfection. Growth takes time, and missteps are part of the journey. Keep going, growing, and glowing—one step at a time.
My Focus This Spring
This season, I’m turning things up a notch in a few key areas:
Business: Showing up and not letting overthinking keep me hostage. More focus on my assignment and less on the algorithm.
Morning Routine: Holding myself accountable to get back to a more consistent start to my day. Mornings set the tone, and I want mine to get back to the intentionality and productivity I once had.
Movement: Prioritizing more movement and taking care of my body. Whether it’s a walk, yoga, or dancing in my kitchen, moving my body is a must.
Joy: Doing more of what makes me feel good, unapologetically. Despite some uncertainty that this climate holds, I’ve resolved that life is too short to put joy on the back burner. The tides may or may not change, so live (with wisdom) now.
Spring is about renewal, growth, and stepping into the light. Let this be your sign to stop overthinking and start moving. Whatever you’ve been contemplating, consider this your green light to go for it.
