Welcome to a new week. Today¡¯s inspirational Monday topic is being resilient in the face of

uncertainty in the new year.?? Here are a few quotes and tips:

Create sense of timelessness by spending time outdoors where there is no indication of what

year it is.

Think about the things that bring safisfaction and connection. Schedule a regular virtual visit

with a human being each day to connect.

Consider setting intentions instead of resolutions or goals so that you are living your life based

on your values even if things change that you cannot control. As an example: Set an intention

is to move 30 minutes a day away from a desk or computer. This can be accomplished even if

the gym is closed due to COVID.

¡°Some stories don¡¯t have a clear beginning, middle and end. Life is sometimes about having to

change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what¡¯s going to happen

next¡­ delicious ambiguity¡± ¨C Gilda Radner

Have a great week! Thank you for all you do each day to help employees and students at

OSU!

Good morning and welcome to a new week! Today¡¯s inspiration is about goals and the idea of

picking a goal for the year that is contained in a focus word or a ¡°word of the year¡± for

yourself for 2021. The word can set a tone for the year ahead and allow you to make

decisions and choices that honor it. Attached is a list of ideas.

Keys to making the word real in your life include:

Seeing it

Reviewing it

Thinking about it

Feeling it,

Experiencing it

Owning it ¨C as much as possible

Steps that can help this process include:

Defining your focus word

¡¤ Compiling a reading list

¡¤ Choosing a song list that inspires you that contains the word

¡¤ Picking an affirmation with that word in it

¡¤ Creating a screen saver with the word

¡¤ Posting it in your ¡°high traffic¡± areas in your workspace, your car, the bathroom mirror

and the refrigerator

These ideas are from this website:

Quotes about goals to ponder today:

¡°You cannot change your destination overnight, but you can change your direction overnight.¡±

- Jim Rohn

¡°If you want to be happy, set a goal that commands your thoughts, liberates your energy and

inspires your hopes.¡±- Andrew Carnegie

Thanks for all you do every day to help employees and students at OSU. Have a great week!
