Decisions are often made with the best of intentions, but they don’t always work out as planned. This is for a few reasons.
- Decisions are often based on things we think we should do, rather than things we really want to do. This can make them feel like a chore, which makes them harder to stick with.
- They are often unrealistic, which can lead us to failure.
- They are often so rigid and specific that they leave no room for real life. If our bandwidth changes, we fail. If our motivation changes, we fail.
Why set a theme for 2024?
So, how about setting a topic vs. an analysis, it’s time to switch it up! A theme is a word or phrase that represents the intention, vibe, or energy you want to cultivate in the coming year. It can be something narrow like innovation/new experiences or something more general like balance or connection. Having a theme helps keep you focused and motivated throughout the year and is much more likely to be successful than a resolution.
Whether you’re trying to improve your sex life or just want to spice it up a bit, here are five themed ideas to help you feel more sexually fulfilled in 2024.
