I revealed my journey finding ONE LITTLE WORD for 2013 yesterday.
It's a funny thing, over the past few weeks I wrote lists, drew
pictures and went through my list over and over. I still kept
searching..researching word meanings, seeking out quotes and writing
definitions. I had a huge list of wonderful words, ideas and feelings
but nothing quite clicked. Then I was reading a title of an email that said NEW year. NEW you. {so cliche...right?} Was I over thinking the entire process? At that moment it hit me...NEW...it just made sense...that was it..so simple...three little letters...so powerful!
I've been feeling a need to focus...to clear my mind..my home...my life...my business of all the excess and start fresh and FOCUS on the things that are most important to me.
a NEW year...a blank canvas to dive right in and make NEW great things happen.
NEW
this simple three letter word will have a profound impact in my life throughout 2013, not just the beginning of January, but the start of each day and every NEW month. I'm looking forward to the NEW discoveries..NEW possibilities...NEW experiences.
what's your ONE LITTLE WORD?

wow thats such a great choice Traci. Love your blogpost - so creative and inspiring. My word is "Imagine" because I have a serious illness (16 yrs) and sometimes one gets so stuck in what one cannot do that one never even tries to visualize or image what it would be like if one was well again. So this year I must imagine all the things I would be doing if I suddenly got better again. (hope this makes sense) :o)
