    PANTONE Color of the Year 2023

    Introducing Pantone’s selection for Color of the Year 2023:VIVA MAGENTA “Pantone’s Color of the Year, Viva Magenta 18-1750, vibrates with vim and vigor. It is a shade rooted in nature descending from the red family and expressive of a new signal of strength. Viva Magenta is brave and fearless, and a pulsating color whose exuberance promotes a joyous and optimistic celebration, writing a new narrative.” Pantone’s ability to forecast color trends is a marketing force that has influenced product development and purchasing decisions in multiple industries for the past 24 years. You can be sure to see Magenta used throughout the year by designers from all industries. Within the real estate industry, interior designers and home stagers incorporate the color into paint, fixtures, cabinets, and decor choices. We predict this shade of magenta being a popular choice as an accent color, for smaller fixtures, and to add a small pop of color to more neutral color schemes. Pantone experts arrive at a selection each year after searching the world for new color influences. This can include the entertainment industry, art, fashion, design, lifestyles, socio-economic conditions, technology, materials, textures, and effects that impact color. This year, Viva Magenta was the color of the choice. Leatrice Eismen, Pantone’s Color Institute Executive Director said, “In this age of technology, we look to draw inspiration from nature and what is real. Viva Magenta descends from the red family, and is inspired by the red of cochineal, one of the most precious dyes belonging to the natural dye family as well as one of the strongest and brightest the world has known. Rooted in the primordial, PANTONE 18-1750 Viva Magenta reconnects us to original matter. Invoking the forces of nature, PANTONE 18-1750 Viva Magenta galvanizes our spirit, helping us to build our inner strength.” Viva Magenta is powerful and empowering. It is a new animated red that revels in pure joy, encouraging experimentation and self-expression without restraint, an electrifying, and a boundaryless shade that is manifesting as a stand-out statement. PANTONE 18-1750 Viva Magenta welcomes anyone and everyone with the same verve for life and rebellious spirit. It is a color that is audacious, full of wit, and inclusive of all. In 2022, Pantone chose Veri Peri to comment on the then transformative times, illustrating the fusion of modern life and the digital world. In 2021, Pantone chose both Illuminating Yellow and Ultimate Gray to symbolize the bright future ahead after a somber year of the coronavirus pandemic. Source

    2023 Successful Goal Setting with Vision Boards

    2022 is coming to an end, and  It’s time to start planning for 2023. Taking the time to make thoughtful goals and define a clear plan for the new year will help hold yourself accountable and set yourself up for success. But how do you do this? Try making a vision board!  Vision Boards:  A vision board is a powerful visualization tool that helps you achieve your goals and dreams. They are composed of goals, photos, quotes, and more that help define your vision for the new year. With 2021 just beginning, it’s a great time to create your own vision board to help hold yourself accountable on achieving your goals and to set yourself up for success in 2021. You can create a print vision board by cutting out inspiration from magazines, newspapers, and books and gluing them to a poster board.  We recommend creating a digital version, so we have provided a template to help you get started. You can personalize with photos, quotes, and text of your choice quickly and easily. Once you have finished your vision board, you can print it out or save it as a .jpeg. Hang it in your office, your bedroom, on your refrigerator, or make it your computer or phone background. The point is to have it somewhere you will see it everyday. This is a visual reinforcement to keep you on track to achieving your end goals. You can make your vision board centered around business goals, personal goals, or both. The possibilities are endless. Be as creative as you’d like, set the bar high and have fun with it! Before you make your vision board, you have to set your goals. Follow these tips to set achievable goals for the new year: Reflect- You can’t move forward without looking back. What worked in 2020? What didn’t? You have a year's worth of data to go off of for the new year, use it. Set Goals- Setting goals is extremely important if you want to make an impact this year. First, you need to prioritize what you want to achieve to best plan your time out. Make sure all of your goals are measurable so you can track your progress.  Feedback- Once you have your goals set, bounce your ideas off team members, mentors, and leaders. Diverse perspectives should be something you embrace in all aspects of development. Accountability- Put measurements in place to hold yourself accountable. Try making a calendar or adding deadlines to your vision board of key milestone checkpoints. If you’re not meeting your goals by these checkpoints, it might be time to reevaluate and make changes. One of the perks of creating a digital vision board is that you can easily make edits if needed.     Sources Cited:Mildlife Rambler | KW 7 Common Goal Setting Mistakes
