So here we are. It’s December — the final month of the most craptastic year of my life. Nonetheless, I’m determined to make the most of this month and finish the year strong.
Here’s how you can, too.

3 Things You Should Do After You #BlogLikeCrazy
This is it! Today is the final day of the 2020 #BlogLikeCrazy challenge.
If you successfully participated that means you published a new blog post every day this month. Here we are at the end of the month and you’re probably thinking, “I blogged like crazy. Now what?”
Aside from giving yourself a nice reward, here are three things you should do after you blog like crazy.

And she made sure I didn’t start writing random to-do lists.
Eventually, life got in the way and we stopped our writing dates and now because of the pandemic, neither of us will be hanging out in coffee shops anytime soon. But when all of this is over (if it’s ever over) I’m going to make it a priority to start these writing dates again.

If you know me well, you know I love choosing a word for the year. And I’ve gotten many members of the See Jane Write community in the practice of doing the same. One of my coaching clients has already picked her word for 2021. She chose UNDAUNTED.
That’s such a fantastic word. It’s both beautiful and powerful. Even though I chose my word for 2021 months ago (I’ll share it with you next month), I’ve been thinking a lot about how to embody and embrace the idea of being undaunted, too.
