I chose patience as my goals for this year will require time. My goals will need both time and effort for me to achieve what it is that I want. I want to help out a buddy and helping her needs effort from me and time to help. That doesn´t just apply to her but for me and anything I may want. I need to be willing to put in the time and effort on my homework if I want it done properly and as best as I can make it. If I do a hobby I need to take my time and do it right to get it to look and work properly so I can be pleased with my results. Patience is the word I choose for this year. AHL

I chose this word because I know that I can become more consistent at everything I do in life. Being more consistent will make everything I do like working out or playing video games much easier for me and in the case of video games, would make me a much better player and help with things I struggle with like inconsistent aim or off days where i'm just doing everything mechanically wrong.

I chose the word "fixated" because I want to be able to focus on things that I can rely on. For example, myself and school. I want to be more fixated because I tend to get distracted by ignorant things such as pointless arguments or mean comments. This new year I want to focus on things that will help me in the near future because I feel like I've been too selfless for the past couple of years when it comes to putting other people first other than my own self and personal goals in life. So, hopefully I have the right mindset to focus on things that will affect me for the better. Fixated will be the power word that will guide me to my future goals and a better mindset. M.V.C.

I chose the word successful because I want to be able to give my family the lives that they dream of having and it would also make me happy seeing them have what they could never have either because of financial issues or simply because they did not have the time to do whatever they wanted to. It will also bring me joy that whatever I decide to proceed with whether it be photography or sports, that my work can bring happiness to at least one person because then I know that I have succeeded in my life and that I have made an impact on someone.

My Power Word for 2025 is steadiness. Last year my emotions were a bit turbulent, and I got stressed easily from things inside and outside of school. This year, I want to find a balance that works for me when I'm having a tough season. I plan to stop neglecting the need to take breaks and bottling up my emotions. The balancing stones are used as a meditative activity that helps release stress and anxiety, which goes with my Power Word.

My power word for 2025 is concentrated. I chose this word becauseI I want to be more focused on my school work and life. I would like to be more active and do my best in school. Being focused on one thing rather than a dozen is more calming and better for myself so I do not become stressed and upset. I want to focus on the good in life rather than bad because negativity only makes a person feel worse. I also would like to focus on being with family and friends rather than having my eyes on a screen all day long. It's better to be with people than to scroll on social media for hours.

I chose the word Courageous because I want to be able to have the courage to take risks and not give up.

My power word for 2025 is balance. The word balance defines how well put together I will be this year. This year I hope to have a well balanced schedule between school and outside activities. I tend to forget about homework because of extracurricular activities. A balanced lifestyle will help me get my work done and still have time to still be satisfied. In other words I think having a balance out of life is better than a messy life.

No Excuses are my words for 2025 because I always push things back. This year I definitely don't want to make any sort of excuses and make my life easier. I think that people always make excuses in any sort of situation that they go through. I know that this year I have a lot of responsibilities and knowing me I will make up an excuse on the demand.

My power word for 2025 is Tenacious. I chose tenacious as in 2024 I wanted to learn how to drive but just never committed to it. I would always tell myself I'll learn but declined when I had the opportunity. I will grip onto this goal and overcome my fear of accidents. Learning how to drive will give me a sense of independence which will guide me as I'm getting older. Not only can the word tenacious apply on learning how to drive but so much more. I have so many more goals that I can achieve if I stay committed. Achieving the goals I have set for myself will give me the feeling of warmth knowing I can stand by my words. The image I chose shows how I'll push through learning till I achieve it. I will be tenacious in 2025.

My 2025 goal is to read more books. I have read plenty of books before, but most of the time they're mandatory and there are very few times where I want to pick up a book. So to pursue my goal I wish to find books that interest my tastes. And to not stray from the path I want to follow my word for 2025 is "Discover"

I chose motivation as my word because sometimes I struggle to have the motivation to do certain tasks. With things like chores and doing work. This is my only downfall because I know I am capable of doing it, I just need to push myself to do it.

I chose ¨Resilience¨ because it signifies strength and adaptability, qualities I aim to pursue in 2025. The image of a sturdy tree in a storm illustrates this concept by showing how resilience allows one to withstand and grow through obstacles. This year I want to overcome my obstacles and stand strong like this tree. Last year I really let myself go and got overwhelmed with stress and work. With this new found mindset I want to do better this year.

My power word for 2025 is focus. I chose this word because I can achieve my goals and maintain steady progress towards them without losing focus. In the past year, I felt like I struggled focusing on my work by getting distracted. Focusing can also help me with not overwhelming myself and focus on one thing one by one. Because assignments tend to pile up and it would begin to stress me out and get me overwhelmed. But, taking breaks and getting things done slowly and not everything bottled up can help me not give up. By choosing "focus" as my power word for 2025, I hope to eliminate any distractions and stay committed to my assignments and hoping to be more productive and a fulfilling rest of the school year.

I chose the word "Dedication" as I tend to throughout my life struggle to dedicate time into a project or hobbies, which are left abandoned. But during the last few years I made an effort to actually put time and my soul into hobbies, bringing the light and joy out of me, bettering my mood. With this in mind I have been wanting to put time in place to practice on things that I had difficulty in hoping for improvement. This time I will not leave anything that would pull me away nor left behind.

I chose hope as my word for 2025 because it's something that I have been trying to build on recently. When I think of hope I think of faith, and having peace of mind which is what hope brings me. I think that hope brings a positive outlook on things and allows me to make a positive environment in my mind. Sometimes I feel like our minds can deceive us most and make us feel negative thoughts, but if we keep hope in our hearts then we can go against those negative thoughts. So overall, hope keeps my mind balanced and keeps me from worrying as much.

I chose this word because in 2025, I have a goal of making it to the state championships in my sport. To achieve this I have to stay motivated and disciplined in order to get better. Every time I skip a practice or slack on technique, I give up opportunities to improve my skill. I have to continue to work hard and put in the time so I can achieve my goal. The more work I put in, the better the results I get back. in 2025, I'm hoping to check this goal off my list so staying diligent is very beneficial, not just in my sport but in life as well.

This also means eating healthier instead of eating out every so often.I am determined to give my dedication,time,strength, and effort into this goal.Although it may be a challenging start, if I am determined I will be able to accomplish this goal.~Deborah M

My power word for 2025 is inner peace. These years of highschool have been difficult to navigate with challenges with those who are around me. With my high school experience being close to an end, I plan to forgive those for my peace of mind. Even though some may not deserve my forgivness, grudges on life feel heavy on the mind along with tension with those around you who've you have had past complications with. With this mindset going forward with 2025, I plan on caring less on situtations that are completely out my control and when the situation could invole so little or too much of me. I should know when the situation gets out of hand I should let go based on my past experinces. Take what I can learn from those past experinces and learn from it for peace of mind within letting it go. Although it'll take much time to forgive, letting things go, and when walking away when needed, it'll be worth it in the end for my mind to be calm. I rather learn now then later when it becomes more difficult to learn as an adult.

I would like to have new experiences with my friends and my family. This year I would like to improve as a person.

The word I chose was to prioritize, the reason I chose this word was because most of the time I'm laying in bed and being lazy when really I should be doing my homework or helping my mom. I need to learn how to prioritize the time I have because time is priceless and the more time I waste the less time I have to get things done. Even being ore productive throughout the day could help, by making "prioritize" as my power word I will try my hardest to prioritize all the time I have to get things done and not waste it.

# data[].attributes.body
I chose the word "intellectual because I realize education is very crucial for basic understanding. I want to be able to rely on myself more and try to figure out things on my own. My goal this year is to improve and get rid of old habits that cost me to be distracted last semester. For example instead of playing video games I will study for exams that I have the following day. Another thing is that I want to be able to study things that intrigue me. I'll be able to build off what interests me and be able to learn from there.

# data[].attributes.body
I chose this word because I realized that I have a hard time balancing my outside life and school. I often forget that I have schoolwork i need to get done due to me being busy with things at home. I want to be able to learn how to balance my everyday life with school so I can be succesful in the future. My ultimate goal this year is staying on top of school work and maintaining my good grades while also staying on top of things I need to do outside of school. Not knowing how to balance my life caused me to develop unhealthy habits so another small goal I have this year is working on getting rid of those unhealthy habits and instead trying to develop habits that will benefit me in the long run.
