In this brief monologue, speaker Lori Harder explains that she has chosen "organized" as her word of the year. She describes the word as a personal decision‑making filter that she applies to choices about friendships, calendar scheduling, creative flow, deep connections, and project selection. By staying organized, she aims to work smarter, avoid the feeling of endless hustle, and align her activities with what truly matters to her.
Picking a word, mine this year is organized, and it's just giving me the first filter that I don't forget to run every decision through that I have found for that year is the most important way for me to make decisions. That helps me make decisions of who I'm hanging out with, what I'm doing, what I have time on my calendar for creative time, more flow time, more deep connection, and just working smarter. I can't wait to have a bunch of projects that I'm obsessed with. But it starts to feel like hustle when I'm not organized and when it's not aligned with the things that I want to be doing. So organized is my word.
