Choose your word for 2014!


It's December, which means - it's officially time. That's right. You know you're thinking about it. What's your word for 2014? Something to inspire you? Keep you on track? Motivate you? What do you want to change, invite, explore, bring to fruition?

My word came to me early this year, but I'm holding out for January before I reveal. Share 'em if you got 'em! Hearing what you're thinking about is one of my favorite parts of this tradition. And please feel free to pass it on!

In case you're new to this, here's the deal:
It all started nearly 20 years ago at a holiday dinner. We were all sitting around the table lamenting the tradition of New Year's Resolutions. We all had them, or attempted a list, but we never managed to fulfill them and it made us feel bad. So we scrapped the whole idea. Instead, each of us came up with a single word that would set the tone for the year to come. It could be anything, it just had to inspire. The idea is that this is YOUR word for the whole year - a singular rallying cry, intention, reminder, kick in the pants, inspiring thought.... use it however you like. Live it for the year. See how you feel.

A few all time faves are above, and more can be found here.
