You are having so many good ideas for choosing the word of the year, I don’t really want to move on. So today’s blog post encourages you to add why this word you are choosing is important to you.
Tree heart. Take heart. Heart of the matter. Words count and matter.
If you’d like, you can explain how you will keep the word close during the year. Here’s what I’ve done in the past:
1. I put it on the computer calendar on a random day each month and attached a “notice” to it, so it comes up the first time I start the computer on that day.
2. I write it on a piece of paper and stick it into random places in my journal. When i come across it, I think about what it means.
3. I tuck it into my sock drawer so that it turns up at random intervals, surprising me and giving me a different perspective.
Here’s a quote to think about while choosing that word:
“We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.” ~ Joseph Campbell
