It's an interesting concept. What one word will you choose to define your goals and direct the year ahead? Well, I must admit: I don't remember what word I choose. But, in looking at the year in retrospect, I have determined what my word was: Change. 2014 brought a lot of change for my family, in terms of the closing of a beloved school, new jobs, new roles within my career, new schools for my children, new friends, and old friends moving away to new jobs or new locales. Change!
With only a few more weeks left of 2014, and here, midst my #12BloggerDays personal challenge, I still see "change" at play. Especially midst these very busy days of holiday prep and planning. I noticed it in the extra long bedtime hugs my kids gave me--showing me some of my timings of things (including making time for writing, and homeworking, and laundry & other "home" work) might also still need some tweaking and changing. I'm not sure what my 2015 word will be, but I still have those weeks to work on even more "change."
If you are knee-deep in thinking of your "one word," here are some resources from their website. A good thing to take a peek at it this NBC interview with author Dan Britton's friend Phillip Kelley. What is your "one word" for either this year, or the next one ahead?
