Its a new start to a new year. Every year I renew my list of resolutions and every year I start off with a flurry. I organize, I exercise, I drink less and I eat better. I try to keep the house tidy, I try to manage my time, and I try to make Mondays meatless. And, every year I pick a word to be my North star for the year.
Last year was a really good word and its been hard for me to come up with a new one. I almost took the route of just using the same word again. But, that seemed totally lame and frankly a bit lazy. So, I decided to make up my own rules for the word game. Yes, I have a new word for 2014 - but I've decided I will still lean on last year's word when needed. My word for 2014 is:
FORWARD
I actually thought long and hard I had a toss up between
forward and
flow - but in the end - forward is the winner. Seems I feel I need to keep momentum going into this year. Some big things are on the agenda in the spring - and forward is the name of the game. For 2014, forward just isn't a direction. My definition also includes no excuses and no
upper limit problems. It also includes being bold in my actions, artwork and well.. life. With that said - forward I go.
Wishing you all a very happy Friday and a wonderful weekend.
If you are a word picker - I'd love to hear your word for 2014
