    Dear Diane, You are so beautiful and truly an inspiration! I love “what people think of you is none of your business”. I just turned 30, started my career as a professor at a university, and I am trying to get my house in order. You have no idea how much of a positive impact you have had in my life and the life of my family. I have such a hard time not taking all of the comments and criticisms of my college students so personally and I also need to work on accepting myself, knowing everything can’t always be perfect, and not judging or comparing myself. Thank you for everything you do. From my heart I thank you 💜 Sarah

    Oh Sarah, this makes my heart hurt for you! Please don't let the negativity of others bring you down. You're working on bettering yourself and that is something to be proud of! Celebrate your small victories and listen closely to the compliments you get. Negative people are only happy when they demean others. Remind yourself that their opinions mean nothing. It's how you feel about yourself that matters and it seems to me that you have much to admire about YOU!

    This is the best video for me personally I've seen in a long time. My word for the year is accepting. I m having a hard time accepting that I'm chronically ill and that my body doesn't function the way I need to. But the flylady system helps me a lot with keeping as much possible independence as I can.

    Hello Wilma Caspers -- I too battle chronic illnesses, daily struggling with limitations-- acceptance is a good word! I am thankful I found Diana in Denmark just a few months ago -- it was as a result of going to YT and searching for hygge -- after reading an article on how Danish combat winter blues. I am still trying to implement flylady. I will place you on my prayer list, and ask if you would kindly place me on your prayer list. God be with you and each of us. Thank you Diane in Denmark!

I'm blessed to now have my best friend as my home care aide and it's only because of her presence that I've been able to reverse my spiral into depression. It's still hard to accept that I can't do so many of the things I used to do, both fun and practical, but we're all a work in progress and the quote you shared inspires me to redouble my efforts.

    @@kimtaylor9096 I am definitely open to learning about new approaches to care. I have been hit by 4 different drivers not being vigilant, once due to a cell phone, over a span of years. Resulting in surgeries. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, CFS, CMPS and several undlying associated conditions. I am thankful my Physician respected I never wanted opiates or similar approaches to care. Some prescription meds and natural supplements are helpful yet costly. Husband asked for divorce after diagnosis. I am no longer able to afford neuromuscular massage therapy, which helped enormously, as did heated water aerobics. It is with God's help I move forward in life each day. Please share any suggestions. Thanking you in advance.

By the way when watching those videos from 2018 one notices how much more energy and sparkle you have in 2020. You are such a vibrant and fun person.

I really like your “Accept.” My word for 2020 is “Bloom.” I have been dealing with a chronic illness for the past four years and I’m into my third year of retirement so I really want to encourage the seeds I’ve been sowing to bloom this year. Thanks for all you do for us Diane. You are awesome.

    This was spot on! Thank you. What a sensible way to approach goals. A year ago I started exercising in my pyjamas with Jane Fonda DVDs first thing in the morning. It was so easy to not have to go out to a class, that I stuck with it. Now I’ve added other workouts from KZread. There is no dramatic transformation in appearance at all, but today I realized that I now have a strong core and can balance easily and steadily on one foot. That’s important for a senior for safety. Lots of my aches and pains are gone from the exercise improving my posture and strength. Now I also sleep well. Keeping it simple really does beat out lofty, unattainable goals. I used to start with “I want to lose 50 pounds” and it didn’t take long to crash and burn. Now I’ve achieved something I didn’t even know I needed. Thank you for all your encouragement and advice. It’s truly the daily routines that count. This year I’ve added a short Spanish lesson every evening. Now I’m confident that next January I’ll be glad I did that, even though progress is not very evident on a weekly basis.

    Winter swimming? Naked? In Denmark? Wow. Just thinking about it makes me cold. Very very impressive. So adventurous! I was born and raised in Florida so what you are accomplishing is beyond my ken. I am going to ponder some adventure, a warmer one, that I could train to accomplish. And I am adopting your word of the year for myself. Last year I stopped coloring my hair and I have almost completely grown it out now to its natural grey. Nothing wrong with coloring your hair. I just didn't want to do it anymore. At first it was hard to accept my new look. But I have embraced it now, accepted that I am no longer young, and, after a period of mourning, I feel a peace and acceptance that is empowering. I feel I am no longer hiding who I am. No longer living by standards I let others dictate. I feel authentic. Who knew silver grey hair had such power? I am going to build on this and accept those things that move me forward positively. Thank you for this video.

    I've been struggling with my daily word this year. I felt like you were talking directly to me when you talked about the word "accept" I am the queen of comparing myself to everyone. I don't garden as well as so and so, I don't cook as well as so and so, I'm not artistic like so and so...It is a never ending barrage of self criticism. I hope you don't mind that I use "accept" as my 2020 word. Accepting who I am, what my abilities are and where I am capable of going. And congratulations on stepping outside your comfort zone. I am so proud of you for saying yes to the swimming competition.

    My word for the day is very similar to yours. "Shine". This is a word that represents showing my talents not hiding them. And it also means being my natural positive cheerful self even when circumstances are kind of negative. and that's because it's just a good reminder that who I am doesn't change because of circumstances and I am by nature a very cheerful person. But I do have a very serious side and that side tends to have run the show lately. I want to shine more this next year. But I also would like the main living areas of my life to shine more too. So my focus this year is on more tidying. More home blessing tasks and routines and not much on zones. I am one of those people who can get a toothbrush and detail clean something in a room that is otherwise a disaster. So I just want to have a more tidy environment that has a basic level of clean. and I want that not because it's the right thing or because of some sort of judgment but specifically so that I can shine more and be more creative and do more writing and other positive activities. So shine means more than just being cheerful it also means being more creative. and I know that in order to achieve that I need to work on having a more tidy and basically clean environment and less focus on heavy detailed cleaning this year. just my daily routines and my weekly cleaning and a couple little things for the zones. But not much of an emphasis on zones.

    I'm sure that once you get your home in order and shining the way your spirit does, those creative floodgates will open for you! I'm very creative too and since my home has become orderly again, I find myself full of creative ideas. I've been working on a birthday cake for my kids for two days and can't wait to get it assembled today. It's going to be a giant hamburger! This is the first time in several years that I'm making a specialized cake for them and I can't wait to surprise them with it. I couldn't have done it with my home being a distraction the way it was before. Good luck to you, shine on!

My binder of routines is done and I am decluttering a bit each day. Reservations are made for dinner out with hubby tonight too. I am trying not to be so "results" focussed and just "do" and enjoy every day as best as I can. I think results will appear if I just keep doing!!!!!!

    I’m so glad that you referred back to Bahookie Camp as I had been planning to do it anyway! You’re so right! The message is the same and all the systems are the same. Really like the point about incorporating goals into your daily routine. Otherwise it gets too complicated. I’ve had the blahs for a few days and decided to take your advice and do something for me today. I’d been staying home with the intention to get things sorted, but I just hadn’t got round to it - when you have all day, it takes all day... today I went to my gym and got baby settled in the crèche and had a coffee by myself for half an hour. I feel like a different person! I’ve come home and got all of my jobs done easily. It’s opened loads of possibilities for me knowing that I can get some exercise in and a bit of time alone. I’ve been in the house for the last 8 months and it hasn’t resulted in me getting anything more done. Accept is a wonderful word for the year. I’m so pleased that you accepted Carol Tuttle’s invitation for October. I’m working up the courage to book a ticket! Thank you for everything Diane!

    I love your word. I love piggy backing off of my word from the following year. Last year mine was restore and transform (my consistency and relationship with God) and now this year my word is Abide. I want to abide in His love and intentionality in my life and who He is. So much follows from this but if I feel fear or worry, the word abide pops in my head. If I want to conquer a goal I see abide and if I don’t want to get out of bed because I’m still mourning the loss of my little baby, I will abide and know resting is where He has me that day.

    Good morning Diane You look beautiful in that shade of green and I love the scarf Thank you so much for your videos You are inspiration I wouldn't be in the place where I am now if I hadn't come across your videos It's not just you telling us about cleaning routines Its your advice about our health and mental wellbeing Diane I so appreciate it Because I was feeling low in the Last few weeks I would say a bit of depression The trouble with me is I am always feeling anxious having terrible thoughts As we are now into the first week of January 2020 From today I am working hard at changing my thought pattern Yes I am going back to do mindfulness Starting from today God bless you and your family always Diane

I tend to overdo it in all ways but getting my work life more scheduled and organized should help as well!! Thank you for all you do Diane!!

I will incorporate your word this year along with mine which is persistence. I will do what needs to get done even if I don’t feel like it. Doing the daily focus and routines will be where I start and then it will trickledown to other avenues in my life. Thank you for all you do to cheer us on. I appreciate everything you do.

Your 7 minute idea is intriguing. Maybe I need to do less but do it every day. Surely I can find 7 minutes somewhere when I'm at home. 😊. You make me feel hopeful I can do this!

    You have no idea how motivational you are! I love how you break things into little chunks, such as exercising, routines, etc. I have been retired for a year and a half and it's been crazy busy. Our daughter got married, we hosted our other daughters Canadian boyfriend for a week ( we are American), my husband and I took a trip to Europe, then my husband had two surgeries and my father had one. I am finally getting time to go through cupboards, drawers, closets, etc. Truth be told, I feel like I am getting reacquainted with myself again. Getting rid of things that don't fit who I am now. I've been following Dressing Your Truth. I'm pretty sure I am a type 2 with type 1 tendencies, though it's taken me a while to figure that out. Thank you for your great ideas! 💗 Have a great day!

    You are such a guiding light for me, Diane! As I’ve been watching your videos this week, I’ve been reminded that doing little bits of something every single day is so much better than biting off more than I can chew and convincing myself that I can be perfect overnight. I often convince myself that five minutes of physical activity is pointless, so I do nothing, or that somehow if I can’t mop the whole house every week, I shouldn’t even bother doing ten minutes. Why is it so hard for me to get it through my head that small actions done daily are the way forward? Thank you! You and your channel have helped me so much 💗💗💗💗
