At the end of Monday’s strength class, our trainer Marybel asked us to write our 2025 “word for the year” on an index card, which she planned to tape up afterward.
I was caught off guard – I usually don’t do a word for the year and hadn’t given 2025 much thought AT ALL (other than fun little things I want to do).
But I came up with “mindful” – the intention to be more mindful with all my actions.
Then as I picked up my phone to leave and saw my “FAFO” sticker on the back I thought “Dammit! I should have put FAFO!”
I shared this regret with another student, saying it’s how I live my life now and that I should have written it. She laughed and said it’s her secret motto with the other cheer captains for the team she coaches, and she’d was considering writing it herself.
And folks, she did. Muah ha ha.
I was so happy when I saw it this morning!
I hate these exercises where you have to write something down and it’s shared widely. Egads. Just let me privately say my goal is “surviving” and move on!
Ha! That would have been a funny word to put up there! And I could have opted out if I wanted to 🙂
Hells yeah – here’s to 2025 being the year of FAFO
I’ve never done a word of the year, and I would not have done well if put on the spot to come up with one. But yes, FAFO4life
YES! I know you are a fellow FAFOer.
It’s like, I need more time to think? There is also something to be said for giving some thought to what immediately comes to mind!
If I even knew what FAFO meant, I would probably be less confused …
It means f*ck around and find out 🙂
I’m really out of touch when it comes to these acronyms.
Okay but can we talk about the person who put down “sugar daddy” because that made me laugh! HA. I’ll take one as well. 😉
ME TOO! We were talking about how amazing that response is at the gym today!!!
Love that sticker as it is going to be an acronym that many of us will refer to in 2025 and beyond.
