I’m really not one for new year resolutions, and have written in the past about my preference for intentions over goals – I find them more empowering.
Just before Christmas I read this post by Lance, and immediately loved the concept: a one word intention for the new year. One word is so much easier to keep your focus on than any well-meaning list. I also knew instinctively what my word for 2010 would be: connection.
Where and how do I hope to see “connection” manifesting in my life this year? Quite simply, everywhere, and everyhow!
In 2010 I would like to create many new connections, in every aspect of my life, and deepen those that already exist.
How about you? Have you abandoned your resolutions already? What single focus could you direct your attention on instead that might make a bigger difference?

Hilda,
The word “connection” is one that I very much feel deeply within me. So, seeing that word here today, I just really think it is such a great word for you. So, as I look at this new year upon us, know that I am very much looking forward to strengthening the connection we have, and watching you just nurture and grow you connections in amazing ways!
Thanks Lance! I look forward to splish splashing with you in the jungle of life this year
Hi Hilda,
It seems to me that we have the same intention. I didn’t meet New Year with a bang, but I’ll definitely make sure that before 2010 ends, I’ll have tons of friends on the web whom I can celebrate with the dawn of 2011. One of the ways I’m doing that is by visiting every single blog that I come across and leaving a footprint. If a webmaster notices me and tries to make a connection, then that’s great. Otherwise, it does really worry. At least, I tried.
Anyway, I hope you meet all your objectives this 2010. Thanks for allowing me to share my thoughts.
Peace and respect,
Ryhen
