My word for the year is ACTION- I have read all the books, watched all the videos and listened to every podcast. Basically I’ve delayed myself long enough in the research stage and now it’s time to just take ACTION
Definitely! And you will learn as you go. Don't expect perfection from day one. I started a blog nearly 5 years ago and I'm so glad I "just started." I don't regret it one bit.
My one word for this year is SILENCE. i dont want to be involved on someone else life, i want to be invisible for a while, i dont want to explain my side anymore to someone that doesn't understand my feeling.
No fr I had a friendship that was terrible for me and I jus left i never said anything, I didn’t feel the need to they knew wht they were doing why should I give them the energy I don’t have or need to give they sucked the energy out of me, so I left and I still miss them but I remember I am so much happier working on myself than continuously be brought down, if they wanna live like that than wtv but I don’t and I can’t grow if the ppl around me don’t wanna grow❤
I have many words for this year , healing decluttering and getting down to essential items not letting toxic people anywhere near me I also want to get order in my life and self care changing food habits and just slowing my pace off life down I’m just starting out on this new found way of life even my clothes are going to be plain earth colours ‘ thank you Sophie I’m learning from you - you are changing my world for the better
My word- Consistency. I've always thought, whenever i got overwhelmed with things to do, that if only i had followed the routine i set for myself, i would have gotten it done without stress. Only being Consistent can help me to enjoy the process of doing things- enjoy living life, bird by bird. 🕊️
TRUTH. I’m done believing the lies I tell myself. Done allowing excuses. I’m going to do what I say. Hold myself accountable. I’m going to live a life of truth, from my core. ❤
My word for this year would be - Fearlessness. I wrote “New Year, No Fear” in my journal. I feel like I get too worried about everything which leads me to just not do it or give up. I feel like I lost so many chances in life because I was so worried about…. Nothing 😅
Love this!!! I'm exactly the same. I'm changing the narrative and letting go of the fear that rules my life. I have way too much to be thankful and grateful for. Fear/worry are such a wasted emotions.
Honestly my word for this year is Me. Normally I would worry that this makes me sound selfish, however I have spent so many years focusing on the needs and wants of everyone else while putting myself on the back burner. At the end of last year I found my "cup" completely barren and my soul depleted. I find it necessary to finally put myself first regardless of how others might view it. Self care and self love in abundance. I will move through this year riding wherever my thoughts, desires, and needs take me. This year I will offer myself grace.
Wow I’m astonished at how you can take the jumbled thoughts I have and string them into words of clarity and understanding. You’ve helped me evolve so much over the years. Thank you ❤
My word is SACRED. Months ago, writing in my journal, I realized the words Sacred and Scared have the same letters, it's up to me which I choose which order I put them in and how it shifts what happens in my life.
I have 2 words for the year: transition and privacy. Transition because I'm at the very beginning of my post-grad life (I graduated University a month ago) and it feels very weird and confusing to transition out of education for the first time in practically my whole life, so beginning and making that progress forward in the next stage of my life is a huge step for this year, hence transition. Privacy: I'm a known oversharer and sometimes it comes around to haunt me because you truly don't know who you can trust with some stuff, so this year I am trying to share less with people and keep more things to myself to protect my energy and my space (and at the end of the day people don't necessarily care because they're too focused on their own lives! This has been a huge thing to learn and accept in the age of the internet too)
My word for the year is rest! I have been running on empty for the last 3 years, and I have eventually burned out! So I don’t repeat the same pattern, I have to learn to rest, recharge and renew myself. Your beautiful videos have helped me to realise that it is safe for me to do this. Thank you!
My word for the year is - STARTING EVERYTHING AGAIN. I wanna heal & start everything from the beginning... again & again & again....i want to heal my inner child,my mental health,my emotional health,my physical health,AND EVERYTHING. i want to heal from traumas,i want to be PROUD with my Scars instead of Hating them or wanting to be others. I don't know how will i do it but I WILL DO IT. I WILL START AGAIN! 🕯️🌸
My word for this year TIME. My dearest pet cat is very sick and it made me realize how little time we have. How we should make more of an effort to spend our time with loved ones. I also learned this while reading “Crying in H Mart” a truly beautiful and heartfelt memoir. Much love to you Soph.
In addition to my self-care and reading every night before sleep,its become my habit to watch one video of yours every day. I am so glad I found your channel and grateful to you to put so much effort to make these videos and inspire us. Thanks, Sophie 🥰🥰 Wishing you all the abundance of the world 🌷🌷
This year I have two words: FUN and BOUNDARIES! I tend to take life so seriously and often forget that life is supposed to be enjoyed. Boundaries mean taking care of my mental health, not always saying “yes” to people. I’m ready!
For some reason, watching self help videos makes me very anxious. I already start to feel a huge sense of urgency combined with guilt. This video was a nice change of pace. It transmits so much self compassion ❤️
My one word this year is space. I am only a teenager and have been struggling a lot with mental illness for the past 3 years. Now, I've come to realize that unfortunately my parents won't be able to give me the comfort and encouragement I need to get better. Considering it is still years until I'm able to move away and start to live on my own, I instead have an intention of putting a space between these emotional needs and them once and for all, while still keeping them in my life. I want to gain as much space through independence and attempt to highlight just how important this is for me to not only them, but myself. They aren't bad people, but due to their own trauma and or lack of understanding it's been hard, and it would be a lie to say that they don't contribute to my struggles. We'll see what happens, but I'm hopeful. Thank you Malama, for bringing me hope for the future even when it seemed like there was none.
I hope you have or can find good support Kay . This chanel is very grounding and gives a feeling of a warm hug. I also found Louise Hay only recently which is crazy but find her videos give great advice on life and also a very soothing voice. You sound like you're well on your way to being emotionally mature and self loving. I send you my very best wishes 💕
My word for the remaining of the year would be CLARITY. To be able to think and act clearly, without social media interference and to have clear and solid relationships and friendships with people around me(not just through the phone)
Last year my word was "balance" and it was PERFECT. I learned how to balance what worked and what didn't in my life. It helped me focus on what I needed. This year, halfway through, I will be giving birth for the third time but it has been over a decade since I had a baby, so I am doing my best to figure out a word. I think this year I am going to have to learn, after several years of me always being on the go and doing so much, that it will be a year of "rest" for me. I am not used to that, but I will need it. I am going to take it easy and learn how to do things anew all over again.
my word for this year is HOPE ✨ I'm a pessimist/realist which is useful in some situations, and that will not change. Hope doesn't mean believing that everything will be okay with 100% certainty, but consistently reminding myself that things _may_ go for the best, and focusing on that, not just on the negative outcome I'm worrying about - hoping for the best, despite the uncertainty. I want to make it a habit to approach things with a hopeful mindset.
Hello Dear. Thank you for sharing such useful advice. I began my journey to reinvent myself a year ago, and I'm now living healthier, more confident, and stronger, earning six figures, and having time to enjoy family and friends. I'm happier now because I'm living my life for myself. This is to encourage someone that "you may start whenever you want to have a reset, it's worth it!" I'm trying to keep growing since it's a journey💚💚💚
@@melbavic23712 Change your mindset, read self-help books, expand knowledge, budget and don't spend on impulse, save, take your finances seriously, eat healthy, exercise your body, meditate; the list goes on... I hope it is useful to you.
I learnt to be frugal, minimal on spending, saving and paying myself first through Investing, made Plans, growing passive income, Read a lot of books on finance, followed my plan consistently.
My word for the year is HONESTY. I never was fully honest with myself, especially when I'm wrong, I don't like acknowledging it because I don't like the truth. Even if I am improving, deserve something, I don't acknowledge it either. I lie about my situations for my own unhealthy benefit. So when I started being true to myself, I'm slowly recognizing who I am and what I need to change.
My word for the year is PEACE. I have many intrusive thoughts about past situations i feel guilty about, imagining the loved ones leaving me... Some days i have extreme fear and anxiety. I wan't to embrace the present moment and leave all that behind. I don't deserve being punished by myself. That doesn't defines me anymore. I deserve to be in peace and enjoy life 🙏🙏
Young Lady, You have been given this life and journey on this planet and have found your calling! For being so young and finding yourself at such a young age is a gift you have been given. I know you will continue to grow as a spiritual being and give to others. I am a Vietnam Era veteran that has been homeless off and on for 10 years, but I see beauty in everything and continue to help others. Keep your shining light bright and love your inner self for you are worthy!! :-)
I've found your video at the end of 2023. So my word for 2024 is PEACE. My country needs peace. My family needs peace. And I can't handle any more stress for myself and everyone around me anymore, I need peace to stay sane.
I have had a word theme as well. I save them and can look back at how far I’ve come. Here are mine per year: 2016 - Acceptance 2017 - Stay Positive 2018 - Stay in the Present 2019 - Reclaim Power 2020 - Be Fearless 2021 - Surrender 2022 - Authenticity 2023 - Self Love
FREE. I wanna free myself from all the regrets & expectations I have in life, I wanna free myself from the judgement of others, I wanna free myself from the lies and self-pity that I'm always stucked with. To be free, be true, be genuine to who I really am. I want to be able to talk to God with a good heart, I know I'm a sinner but I will try my very best to put actions in every words that I let out.
Thank you for this beautiful video! My one word for this year is "calmness". I've suffered from burnout since November. Everything is too much and too loud. This year I want to take a step back and let myself rest and be calm.
My one word for this year is, EFFORT. Last year I was so overwhelmed on how can I fulfill my goals. And I learned it the hard way, that doing effort for something is not a waste. There's always a good results if you know yourself that you did something for it. Make an effort for the things you aim so that there's no regret at the end of the day.😊💝 Thank you for this helpful reminder.
My word got the year is FOCUS! Covid, near fatal accident, parenting, doubt, imposter syndrome has deterred my goals, but I have to pick back up, recreate balance, and reFOCUS! 🔎
what you said about the things about ourselves we tell ourselves and others and how that affects our own perception of ourselves really opened my eyes. I used to call myself a lazy person, both to myself and the people around me. with time I realized I simply valued alone/me time and doing relaxing activities a lot. that was what recharged me. as soon as I changed the narrative on that both my own perspective and everyone else's about it changed. we really need to talk better about ourselves.
My word for the year is BETTER- I don't want to rush, I want to be the better version of myself in all terms. I want to give myself a proper time. I want love relationship career growth and most importantly peace but for that I need to become better at what I think I m.
This resonated with me so much 💓 I lit a candle, made my rose hibiscus latte and took notes. I even watched it twice. I created a "Be Intentional" board last week so I would say Mindful is my word for 2023. Such a beautiful space you've created here on RUclips 😊 Namasté Sister
This year my word will be FREEDOM. After years of trauma and financial struggles, I am finally growing in abundance and feel ready to receive it the best that I can and feel FREE.
Healing and gratitude! Currently become single mum of two, living in refuge waiting for house. Got very little £ but a lot of stress. Need to rewatch your videos to calm myself down x
I love what you said about not holding onto narratives that don't serve us 💕❤️ I changed the layout of my office recently as well... And it made a huge difference! 😁
This is just what I needed 😢 I've been so overwhelmed and exhausted with my sickness and I felt so helpless 😣 I'm struggling with letting go of narratives that no longer serve me but your video empowers me ! It feels like it's not that hard to change the narrative. Thank you for your inspirational video 🙏❤
I'll definately try to focus on creating the system rather than holding myself to goals I want to achieve. I've been suffering so much because of all the pressures I feel from having to achieve my goal 😞 Focusing on the system sounds much more doable and simple ! It will help me not to blame myself so much
My Word is ACTION. This week the company I work for laid off a lot of employees, including me. Instead of dwelling in the pitty, victim mentality, I gave myself permission to feel when the emotions comes but making sure I take one action closer to get to my next job or maybe my own business.
I have to say one thing to you that I love the fact that your creative setup is so genuinely simple and not flashy. So many video creators have such fancy laptops and tools at their desk and you really do make the point for all of us to use what we have to the fullest. Thank you for keeping it real. Happy new year!
i realized how hard it is to start when you’re a student or someone that’s busy with life in general. like, i’d be more than happy to be sleeping at 9pm and wake up at 5am to go to the gym but it’s just not that easy when you have other responsibilities (like schoolworks or group works) that’s why, this christmas break i would try to start my change little by little… goodluck everyone and have a happy holiday and new year!!
Joyful HEALING. You’ve created such wonderful, gentle ways to reset your routines and make healthy connections to self-care and expanding yourself with kindness and compassion. Thank you so much.🔆 💟💝☮️🙏🏼💓🌈
I'm at the point of my life in which I just mindlessly like your video regardless of what you are talking about. Your voice is my calming drug. Never ever stop making videos.
My word for the rest of the year starting today is PUSH! I don't PUSH myself enough. When things don't work out as quick as I want them to or like I want them to I just give up. But I know it's time to reset my life now and my word going forward is PUSH. I'm 50 and it's time to stop giving up and PUSH through. Thank you so much and God bless you for this video.❤
I have two words for this year - STREAMLINE and EASE. In my business I want to get rid of the overwhelm I had throughout 2022. This year I want to always consider - how can I make X simpler? I want to stop "doing the most" and simply do what's needed to get a job done...and that's it. Doing things in a simpler manor and with EASE will make life and business more enjoyable!
My one word is PRESENT. So often we are not present for our families, friends and those we love. We are there in body but not there in spirit. I want to be present.
My word of the year is Determination. I've always cleared in my mind about the priorities but somehow lack in determination is what that holds me to step forward ahead in life
Thank you for this. Some days, the pain and grief have made it difficult to do anything at all. The only thing I was abale to get myself to do is switch from Netflix to your videos. I sat there watching and slowly inspired in my heart the will to get up and try again. I was afraid to share so vulnerably, but I am learning to stop limiting myself and allow myself to bless you for the magic you bring to this world. thank you, thank you, thank you!
Thank you for sharing these simple and easy to do things to start off this year, but also thank you for the reminder that each new day is an opportunity to reset ourselves 🩷
Oh my goodness, that is exactly what I’ve been doing this year. Setting up my systems. Because I can’t have what I want right now, it will take steps to get there. A total reset!
Im finding this video just now. This year, for the first time ever, I’ve decidet to have my own word for this year (came up on that idea on my own??). The word is SOLO. learning about myself, spending as much time alone, going out all by myself, solo traveling…. Ive decidet to date myself which means treating myself as nice as posssible🥳
My word this year is NOURISH. To nourish means to "provide with the food or other substances necessary for growth, health and good condition." I want to nourish and honor my body with movement, rest, a good schedule, consistency and love. I am choosing to put the effort in to nourish my body, mind and soul every day this year- instead of taking the easy route, skipping a work out or getting a fast meal instead of cooking something healthy. I want to take the time to love myself and be good to myself this year, and every year after.
The word I chose for 2023 is Vibrant. Lots of meanings for it... Embracing colors and styles that bring me joy, embracing the bolder aspects of my personality I've always felt too shy to expose, but also, ever since becoming a mom I've let my family's priorities become my own, and all my passions have become very subdued... and I want to reignite them and live vibrantly not just for myself, but for my kids. It won't look that way to others, probably--I'm a pretty "biege" person in general--but I don't want to *feel* that way. Anyways, thank you for your thoughtful and inspiring videos. I always feel so much more grounded and purposeful after hearing your words.
Bawling my eyes out watching this because my in-laws constantly sabotage my life. I’m trying to get pregnant and stress and depression are messing up my hormones. I have moved away from home, I’m in therapy, I’m eating healthy, I’m trying to workout, but they still somehow manage to mess things up for me, talk shit about me, harm my marriage. I’m so sad, I’m doing inner work but it’s so hard. My heart hurts. My word for this year is peace. I want peace, I want calm in my life. I just want my head to stop hurting from all the drama. Sorry for the rant y’all I hope everyone has a great 2023 and I hope I’m also able to achieve my goals and intentions 🙏🏻
Dear have patience everything will be fine later, I have been through a lot in the past then I surrender everything to God from that day only I started feeling better and in peace. Just surrender your pain to God. Sending lots of love and courage.
My word for the 2024 is gonna be growth. Gonna work on this. All these past years, i've been feeling stuck in my comfort cone, my thoughts and past.. But now I'm ready to move forward and grow. ❤
The word I chose this year is reduce without being wasteful, which is quite a challenge. It’s so easy to hold on to things we think we need or find comforting. It actually makes us feel more overwhelmed. Having small kids who enjoy having a lot of toys make it tough. Thank you for sharing your encouraging words.
Today is New Year's Day, and my two word is Boundaries and Improvment. I will set boundaries and not easily give in because it'll only make that one person happy, but I also need to try and do better to care for myself and not be taken advantage of. And improvement because I need to do better, and I know I can. There's no reason I can do something without me getting in my own way. So, I am going to try and do better for myself and others.
My one word that I must keep this year is CONSISTENCY 💚 I really want to be successful on my small arts and crafts shop and now I just want to focus more to grow in this path.
Thank u so much dear. U really have no idea wht ur video does to me. It pulls me out of darkness and makes me feel worthy. Makes me feel worthy of self love. Thank u so much for existing and for putting in the effort to make videos for us. Can't thank u enougj
My word for the year is ACTION- I have read all the books, watched all the videos and listened to every podcast. Basically I’ve delayed myself long enough in the research stage and now it’s time to just take ACTION
yes! go for it!!
This was exactly what I thought and then did last year.
And let me tell you: things have changed so much for the better!
You go and just do it!!!
Definitely! And you will learn as you go. Don't expect perfection from day one. I started a blog nearly 5 years ago and I'm so glad I "just started." I don't regret it one bit.
Same. Not much book reading for me but online info. I could just do.
Yes!! I want to manifest this too and make things that i’ve always visualize to finally be a reality.
My one word for this year is SILENCE. i dont want to be involved on someone else life, i want to be invisible for a while, i dont want to explain my side anymore to someone that doesn't understand my feeling.
LOVE it
Me❤
No fr I had a friendship that was terrible for me and I jus left i never said anything, I didn’t feel the need to they knew wht they were doing why should I give them the energy I don’t have or need to give they sucked the energy out of me, so I left and I still miss them but I remember I am so much happier working on myself than continuously be brought down, if they wanna live like that than wtv but I don’t and I can’t grow if the ppl around me don’t wanna grow❤
My one word for this year is HEALING🧘🏿♀️🌕🧘🏿⚕️
❤️❤️❤️
I love this ❤
Mine too...
Mine is SLOW. I decided this is the Year of Slow.
I have many words for this year , healing decluttering and getting down to essential items not letting toxic people anywhere near me I also want to get order in my life and self care changing food habits and just slowing my pace off life down I’m just starting out on this new found way of life even my clothes are going to be plain earth colours ‘ thank you Sophie I’m learning from you - you are changing my world for the better

New year, No fear!!!! I love it Stella 💪❤️ going to remember that
I like this. This is also me. I'm hoping to work on this more throughout the year.
Love this!!! I'm exactly the same. I'm changing the narrative and letting go of the fear that rules my life. I have way too much to be thankful and grateful for. Fear/worry are such a wasted emotions.
I can relate to this... I wish you a fearless year ❤️
Literally same Stella. I wrote that this year I will learn to be fearless and if I want to do something I will do it.
Honestly my word for this year is Me. Normally I would worry that this makes me sound selfish, however I have spent so many years focusing on the needs and wants of everyone else while putting myself on the back burner. At the end of last year I found my "cup" completely barren and my soul depleted. I find it necessary to finally put myself first regardless of how others might view it.

Not selfish at all! Fill your cup and take care of yourself ❤️
Go Beth!!
Exactly what I was thinking ❤
I got the same feeling recently. This year, my word will be myself
Amazing ❤
Wow I’m astonished at how you can take the jumbled thoughts I have and string them into words of clarity and understanding. You’ve helped me evolve so much over the years. Thank you ❤
You're the best 😁❤️ thank you!!
To Let Go 💜 ( of everthing that no longer serves me ... all the memories , pain, trauma, people, energies, fear etc )
❤️ essential part of a reset
My one word for this year is ACTION
DON’T THINK ANYMORE, JUST TAKE ACTION
*Congraulations 🎉I have a (Mystery Box) package for you; Gist the above username for acknowledgment*
My word is SACRED. Months ago, writing in my journal, I realized the words Sacred and Scared have the same letters, it's up to me which I choose which order I put them in and how it shifts what happens in my life.
❤️ love that
I have 2 words for the year: transition and privacy.
Transition because I'm at the very beginning of my post-grad life (I graduated University a month ago) and it feels very weird and confusing to transition out of education for the first time in practically my whole life, so beginning and making that progress forward in the next stage of my life is a huge step for this year, hence transition.
Privacy: I'm a known oversharer and sometimes it comes around to haunt me because you truly don't know who you can trust with some stuff, so this year I am trying to share less with people and keep more things to myself to protect my energy and my space (and at the end of the day people don't necessarily care because they're too focused on their own lives! This has been a huge thing to learn and accept in the age of the internet too)
Definitely, a privacy and enjoy your own company. 💪☺️
My word for the year is rest! I have been running on empty for the last 3 years, and I have eventually burned out! So I don’t repeat the same pattern, I have to learn to rest, recharge and renew myself. Your beautiful videos have helped me to realise that it is safe for me to do this. Thank you!
"We can't truly erase what's happened in the past, but we don't necessarily have to carry the heaviness of it all into the next day."
As a smaller RUclipsr myself, watching your videos really inspires me!
my one word for this year is love. Loving what I do,loving myself,loving my flaws and everything that's good for me🌸
love this :)
My word for the year is - STARTING EVERYTHING AGAIN. I wanna heal & start everything from the beginning... again & again & again....i want to heal my inner child,my mental health,my emotional health,my physical health,AND EVERYTHING. i want to heal from traumas,i want to be PROUD with my Scars instead of Hating them or wanting to be others. I don't know how will i do it but I WILL DO IT. I WILL START AGAIN! 🕯️🌸
My word for this year is “surrender”. I want to practice surrendering my attachments/fears/negative feelings to improve my life..!! ☺️💫
My word for this year TIME.
My dearest pet cat is very sick and it made me realize how little time we have. How we should make more of an effort to spend our time with loved ones. I also learned this while reading “Crying in H Mart” a truly beautiful and heartfelt memoir.
Much love to you Soph.
May you find consolation and peace.
In addition to my self-care and reading every night before sleep,its become my habit to watch one video of yours every day. I am so glad I found your channel and grateful to you to put so much effort to make these videos and inspire us. Thanks, Sophie 🥰🥰
Wishing you all the abundance of the world 🌷🌷
You're so sweet. It means a lot to me. Thank you!! ❤️
I share your sentiments - very thankful to have discovered this channel!

Fun and boundaries excellent ❤the life partner 🎉🎉🎉depends too
My one word last year was 'HEALING' and this year, it will be... 'HAPPINESS'. 💛
For some reason, watching self help videos makes me very anxious. I already start to feel a huge sense of urgency combined with guilt. This video was a nice change of pace. It transmits so much self compassion ❤️

My word is Love. I will do what I love (a PhD), love what I do (be present), and be open to love.
😍❤️
My word of this new year is PEACE. I want to find inner peace within myself
Consciousness - my word for this year. I am practicing being more present every moment with every breath.
Love your videos - so relaxing and peaceful.
So important. Thank you for watching ❤️
Your word choice struck me as I was trying to come up with a word that describes what I wasnt last year or ever since covid. Thanks
My word for the remaining of the year would be CLARITY. To be able to think and act clearly, without social media interference and to have clear and solid relationships and friendships with people around me(not just through the phone)
The calmness , visuals effects, your voice ❤️❤️❤️🥺🥺. As your audience we crave for more such videos.
Thank you so much ❤️
I absolutely agree. 🤎 When I saw my notification that Sophie has a new video, I feel so excited! Kilig 🤎
Last year my word was "balance" and it was PERFECT. I learned how to balance what worked and what didn't in my life. It helped me focus on what I needed. This year, halfway through, I will be giving birth for the third time but it has been over a decade since I had a baby, so I am doing my best to figure out a word. I think this year I am going to have to learn, after several years of me always being on the go and doing so much, that it will be a year of "rest" for me. I am not used to that, but I will need it. I am going to take it easy and learn how to do things anew all over again.
my word for this year is HOPE ✨ I'm a pessimist/realist which is useful in some situations, and that will not change. Hope doesn't mean believing that everything will be okay with 100% certainty, but consistently reminding myself that things _may_ go for the best, and focusing on that, not just on the negative outcome I'm worrying about - hoping for the best, despite the uncertainty. I want to make it a habit to approach things with a hopeful mindset.
My word for this year is “essential”. I will spend my energy, money, time, etc to what is only essential. 🙏🏼

Hello Dear. Thank you for sharing such useful advice. I began my journey to reinvent myself a year ago, and I'm now living healthier, more confident, and stronger, earning six figures, and having time to enjoy family and friends. I'm happier now because I'm living my life for myself. This is to encourage someone that "you may start whenever you want to have a reset, it's worth it!" I'm trying to keep growing since it's a journey💚💚💚
Congratulations Mariana 🎊🎊Thanks for encouraging others with your story, I will love to get tips from you too.
@@melbavic23712 Change your mindset, read self-help books, expand knowledge, budget and don't spend on impulse, save, take your finances seriously, eat healthy, exercise your body, meditate; the list goes on... I hope it is useful to you.
That is so amazing!! Thank you for sharing your story. I really hope it inspires another lady out there to start taking action♥♥♥
@@mariana23273 How did you grow to 6 Figure? I'm honestly trying to work on my personal finance this year.
I learnt to be frugal, minimal on spending, saving and paying myself first through Investing, made Plans, growing passive income, Read a lot of books on finance, followed my plan consistently.
My word for the year is HONESTY. I never was fully honest with myself, especially when I'm wrong, I don't like acknowledging it because I don't like the truth. Even if I am improving, deserve something, I don't acknowledge it either. I lie about my situations for my own unhealthy benefit. So when I started being true to myself, I'm slowly recognizing who I am and what I need to change.
I love this so much
My word for the year is surrender ❤
Letting go of the need to control, surrendering my life to the universe.
My word for the year is Freedom; a feeling I am only beginning to understand and feel.
My word for the year is PEACE. I have many intrusive thoughts about past situations i feel guilty about, imagining the loved ones leaving me... Some days i have extreme fear and anxiety. I wan't to embrace the present moment and leave all that behind. I don't deserve being punished by myself. That doesn't defines me anymore. I deserve to be in peace and enjoy life 🙏🙏
My word for 3 years now is Discipline. And it's going to continue being Discipline until I achieve it.
I'm grateful for you❤️
😍 love it!
Young Lady, You have been given this life and journey on this planet and have found your calling! For being so young and finding yourself at such a young age is a gift you have been given. I know you will continue to grow as a spiritual being and give to others. I am a Vietnam Era veteran that has been homeless off and on for 10 years, but I see beauty in everything and continue to help others. Keep your shining light bright and love your inner self for you are worthy!! :-)
I've found your video at the end of 2023. So my word for 2024 is PEACE.
My country needs peace.
My family needs peace.
And I can't handle any more stress for myself and everyone around me anymore, I need peace to stay sane.
Reset is actually perfect for me. A most heartfelt thank you
❤️
Wow ! Much needed ❤️ your videos, your prospectives , your words , the way you explain things so smoothly ❤️ indeed ! You have my respect
❤ thank you
She’s the best at helping you grow and evolve ❤
I have had a word theme as well. I save them and can look back at how far I’ve come. Here are mine per year:
2016 - Acceptance
2017 - Stay Positive
2018 - Stay in the Present
2019 - Reclaim Power
2020 - Be Fearless
2021 - Surrender
2022 - Authenticity
2023 - Self Love
And how has been going???
My word will be WORK. Everytime I just planned, I didn't DO any of those. That's why it's WORK.
FREE. I wanna free myself from all the regrets & expectations I have in life, I wanna free myself from the judgement of others, I wanna free myself from the lies and self-pity that I'm always stucked with. To be free, be true, be genuine to who I really am. I want to be able to talk to God with a good heart, I know I'm a sinner but I will try my very best to put actions in every words that I let out.
❤️❤️
Thank you for this beautiful video! My one word for this year is "calmness". I've suffered from burnout since November. Everything is too much and too loud. This year I want to take a step back and let myself rest and be calm.
Hi :) First time viewer here. I don't understand why you don't have 1 million subscribers. Your videos are soooo BEAUTIFUL. I mean wow. ❤
Thank you for watching :) that means a lot! I'm really grateful to live in such a beautiful place
The word for me is NEW not buying items to decorate my life but to try new hobbies and to see what will build my character.
Your voice is so calming ❤
"Take rest when u r tired dont quit".... aA warm happy newyear... ❤️
❤️
My one word for this year is, EFFORT.
Last year I was so overwhelmed on how can I fulfill my goals. And I learned it the hard way, that doing effort for something is not a waste. There's always a good results if you know yourself that you did something for it.
Make an effort for the things you aim so that there's no regret at the end of the day.😊💝
Thank you for this helpful reminder.

Word for this year is financial freedom and self responsibility
My word got the year is FOCUS! Covid, near fatal accident, parenting, doubt, imposter syndrome has deterred my goals, but I have to pick back up, recreate balance, and reFOCUS! 🔎
*Congraulations 🎉I have a (Mystery Box) package for you; Gist the above username for acknowledgment**
Ur gentleness and beautiful approach to life are always inspiring. Wishing u a beautiful 2023!
❤️ Thank you so much
what you said about the things about ourselves we tell ourselves and others and how that affects our own perception of ourselves really opened my eyes. I used to call myself a lazy person, both to myself and the people around me. with time I realized I simply valued alone/me time and doing relaxing activities a lot. that was what recharged me. as soon as I changed the narrative on that both my own perspective and everyone else's about it changed. we really need to talk better about ourselves.
My word for the year is BETTER- I don't want to rush, I want to be the better version of myself in all terms. I want to give myself a proper time. I want love relationship career growth and most importantly peace but for that I need to become better at what I think I m.
The new yr is still in a few months but my word for 2024 is GROWTH . I want to grow myself , my relationship with God and my bank account
🙌
This resonated with me so much 💓 I lit a candle, made my rose hibiscus latte and took notes. I even watched it twice. I created a "Be Intentional" board last week so I would say Mindful is my word for 2023. Such a beautiful space you've created here on RUclips 😊 Namasté Sister
My word for the year is letting go- letting go of all the hurt. The pain. The trauma. Letting it go because it’s holding me back
This year my word will be FREEDOM. After years of trauma and financial struggles, I am finally growing in abundance and feel ready to receive it the best that I can and feel FREE.
Freedom 🙌✨️
Healing and gratitude!
Currently become single mum of two, living in refuge waiting for house. Got very little £ but a lot of stress. Need to rewatch your videos to calm myself down x
❤️
You can get through it and everything will work out for you ❤️😇🙏
You can get through it and everything will work out for you ❤️😇🙏
I love what you said about not holding onto narratives that don't serve us 💕❤️ I changed the layout of my office recently as well... And it made a huge difference! 😁
:)
My word this year is BRAVE. I want to be brave in choosing me, brave in my job and brave in meeting new people.
Love that! Bravery takes on a different journey. A more fulfilling one 😁
This is just what I needed 😢 I've been so overwhelmed and exhausted with my sickness and I felt so helpless 😣 I'm struggling with letting go of narratives that no longer serve me but your video empowers me ! It feels like it's not that hard to change the narrative. Thank you for your inspirational video 🙏❤
I'll definately try to focus on creating the system rather than holding myself to goals I want to achieve. I've been suffering so much because of all the pressures I feel from having to achieve my goal 😞 Focusing on the system sounds much more doable and simple ! It will help me not to blame myself so much
My Word is ACTION. This week the company I work for laid off a lot of employees, including me. Instead of dwelling in the pitty, victim mentality, I gave myself permission to feel when the emotions comes but making sure I take one action closer to get to my next job or maybe my own business.
I found your RUclips channel when I'm searching an inspiration for my life. Now I have addicted to your videos. I really enjoy your videos.
I have to say one thing to you that I love the fact that your creative setup is so genuinely simple and not flashy. So many video creators have such fancy laptops and tools at their desk and you really do make the point for all of us to use what we have to the fullest. Thank you for keeping it real. Happy new year!
i realized how hard it is to start when you’re a student or someone that’s busy with life in general. like, i’d be more than happy to be sleeping at 9pm and wake up at 5am to go to the gym but it’s just not that easy when you have other responsibilities (like schoolworks or group works) that’s why, this christmas break i would try to start my change little by little… goodluck everyone and have a happy holiday and new year!!
Joyful HEALING. You’ve created such wonderful, gentle ways to reset your routines and make healthy connections to self-care and expanding yourself with kindness and compassion. Thank you so much.🔆 💟💝☮️🙏🏼💓🌈
I love that 😍
I'm at the point of my life in which I just mindlessly like your video regardless of what you are talking about. Your voice is my calming drug. Never ever stop making videos.
Haha aww thank you!
My word for the rest of the year starting today is PUSH!
I don't PUSH myself enough. When things don't work out as quick as I want them to or like I want them to I just give up. But I know it's time to reset my life now and my word going forward is PUSH. I'm 50 and it's time to stop giving up and PUSH through.
Thank you so much and God bless you for this video.❤
My word is change and silence, changing my life quietly no drama, no friends

My word for 2023 = PERSEVERE
I have two words for this year - STREAMLINE and EASE. In my business I want to get rid of the overwhelm I had throughout 2022. This year I want to always consider - how can I make X simpler? I want to stop "doing the most" and simply do what's needed to get a job done...and that's it. Doing things in a simpler manor and with EASE will make life and business more enjoyable!
your voice is so soothing and your advice helps so much
My one word is PRESENT. So often we are not present for our families, friends and those we love. We are there in body but not there in spirit. I want to be present.
My word of the year is Determination. I've always cleared in my mind about the priorities but somehow lack in determination is what that holds me to step forward ahead in life
*Congraulations 🎉I have a (Mystery Box) package for you; Gist the above username for acknowledgment*
I am so so glad that I clicked this video. I needed to hear the words you spoke from this video. Thank you so so so much!
Thank you for this. Some days, the pain and grief have made it difficult to do anything at all. The only thing I was abale to get myself to do is switch from Netflix to your videos. I sat there watching and slowly inspired in my heart the will to get up and try again. I was afraid to share so vulnerably, but I am learning to stop limiting myself and allow myself to bless you for the magic you bring to this world. thank you, thank you, thank you!
My one word for this year is PEACE OF MIND
My word is proactive.
Thank you for sharing these simple and easy to do things to start off this year, but also thank you for the reminder that each new day is an opportunity to reset ourselves 🩷
a hot tea and your video is always a best calming moment for me 😌🤍
😁❤️ awww
Oh my goodness, that is exactly what I’ve been doing this year. Setting up my systems. Because I can’t have what I want right now, it will take steps to get there. A total reset!
My word for 2023 is AUTHENTICITY 😊
Im finding this video just now. This year, for the first time ever, I’ve decidet to have my own word for this year (came up on that idea on my own??). The word is SOLO. learning about myself, spending as much time alone, going out all by myself, solo traveling…. Ive decidet to date myself which means treating myself as nice as posssible🥳
FORGIVENESS. Forgiving myself for all the oportunities that i have missed.
My word this year is NOURISH. To nourish means to "provide with the food or other substances necessary for growth, health and good condition." I want to nourish and honor my body with movement, rest, a good schedule, consistency and love. I am choosing to put the effort in to nourish my body, mind and soul every day this year- instead of taking the easy route, skipping a work out or getting a fast meal instead of cooking something healthy. I want to take the time to love myself and be good to myself this year, and every year after.
The word I chose for 2023 is Vibrant. Lots of meanings for it... Embracing colors and styles that bring me joy, embracing the bolder aspects of my personality I've always felt too shy to expose, but also, ever since becoming a mom I've let my family's priorities become my own, and all my passions have become very subdued... and I want to reignite them and live vibrantly not just for myself, but for my kids. It won't look that way to others, probably--I'm a pretty "biege" person in general--but I don't want to *feel* that way. Anyways, thank you for your thoughtful and inspiring videos. I always feel so much more grounded and purposeful after hearing your words.
Wishing you the most vibrant and colorful year 💕 😘
My one word for this year is grounded, I want to remain grounded no matter the circumstances ❤
❤️ love that
Yaaay!! 600K - Congratulations @Malamalife 🎉👏🤗 I love and enjoy a lot your content! Thank you!
Thank you for being in our lives Sophie!! 🙏🏽
❤️ i appreciate you watching my videos!
Bawling my eyes out watching this because my in-laws constantly sabotage my life. I’m trying to get pregnant and stress and depression are messing up my hormones. I have moved away from home, I’m in therapy, I’m eating healthy, I’m trying to workout, but they still somehow manage to mess things up for me, talk shit about me, harm my marriage. I’m so sad, I’m doing inner work but it’s so hard. My heart hurts. My word for this year is peace. I want peace, I want calm in my life. I just want my head to stop hurting from all the drama. Sorry for the rant y’all I hope everyone has a great 2023 and I hope I’m also able to achieve my goals and intentions 🙏🏻
Sending you a huge hug, friend 🧡
big hugs from me too ❤️ hope you find the peace you're looking for
@@LindsayD228 thank you friend 💖
@@MalamaLife thank you for everything 💖
Dear have patience everything will be fine later, I have been through a lot in the past then I surrender everything to God from that day only I started feeling better and in peace. Just surrender your pain to God. Sending lots of love and courage.
you are the best i desire to constantly listening you cause your voice is so healing thanks a lot for this video keep going ❤️🥀
My word for the 2024 is gonna be growth. Gonna work on this. All these past years, i've been feeling stuck in my comfort cone, my thoughts and past.. But now I'm ready to move forward and grow. ❤
my word for this year is aim, i juat wanna focus on myself. (and stop being overly confident and learn)
The word I chose this year is reduce without being wasteful, which is quite a challenge. It’s so easy to hold on to things we think we need or find comforting. It actually makes us feel more overwhelmed. Having small kids who enjoy having a lot of toys make it tough. Thank you for sharing your encouraging words.
Today is New Year's Day, and my two word is Boundaries and Improvment.
I will set boundaries and not easily give in because it'll only make that one person happy, but I also need to try and do better to care for myself and not be taken advantage of.
And improvement because I need to do better, and I know I can. There's no reason I can do something without me getting in my own way. So, I am going to try and do better for myself and others.
My one word that I must keep this year is CONSISTENCY 💚
I really want to be successful on my small arts and crafts shop and now I just want to focus more to grow in this path.
Thank u so much dear. U really have no idea wht ur video does to me. It pulls me out of darkness and makes me feel worthy. Makes me feel worthy of self love. Thank u so much for existing and for putting in the effort to make videos for us. Can't thank u enougj
So happy to hear that ❤️
