3 Powerful Qs To Ask Before Diving Into 2025

Even though this year has flown by, I KNOW you’ve grown and changed a lot – just like I have.

One of the best ways to ensure all that we’ve gone through is embodied and turned into wisdom is to pause and practice some self-inquiry (which, of course, is essential to growing your emotional intelligence (EQ) and self-mastery).

So, before you sprint into the new year or set your 2025 goals, ask yourself these 3 questions and free-flow journal on the answers:

#1 How can I make my life more joyful and fulfilling?

Research shows joy comes from relationships, experiences, and things unique to you!

  • What do I LOVE doing? (Do MORE!)
  • What do I tolerate doing? (I don’t like to but it has to get done. Do LESS or combine with something you enjoy)
  • What do I HATE doing? (Delete or delegate)

#2 What is stressing me out and why?

  • Where do I feel tension or heaviness in my life?
  • Which goals am I not making progress on and why?

#3 What can I let go of to allow joy and success in?

  • Where or how am I blocking joy and success? (How do I push it away?)
  • Where can I simplify my life?
  • How am I getting in my own way?
