I thought it would be fun to share some of our past "Word of the year" words, it might help someone choose their word(s).
Sometimes my "word" is several words.
What have some of your past "Word(s) of the year" words been?
I started in 2008.
Word Of The Year
2008 - Soul Search
2009 - Me
2010 - Journey
2011 - Master Plan
2012 - Story
2013 - Re-Define
2014 - One day at a time
2015 - Whatever's meant to be, will be
2016 - Wandering along
2017 - Expect nothing, appreciate everything
2018 - Steady as I go
2019 - Live Simply.
2020 - Less and More
2021 - Rebuilding
2022 - Taking care of me

The ones that I had the most success with were Adventure, Focus, and Words (lots of reading, and writing that year.)

Home
Nourish
Magic
Kindess
Curiosity
Faith
Give
Do
Light
Faith, Give, and Nourish have been the words that resonated the most for me. A few did not like Do and Curiosity and I had high hopes for both. Home has been the worst. Give surprised me and helped me stretch, it might be my favorite of the bunch.

Light (only year I did OLW) Yes Focus and Finish Deep (inspired by the idea of a depth year) There may have been others that didn't stick. |

Some of the ones I've had are:
Change
Forward
Do
Progress
Light
Less
Care
Change was probably the most apt out of all the words I've chosen, both positive and negative. Do and Progress were probably my least successful, they didn't drive enough action.
The last couple of years I've had a word but haven't really done anything with it, so I'm not sure yet if I'll choose something for next year or just let it slide.

The one time I did OLW I chose "consistency" because I have ADHD and am never consistent!
Ironically (or not) I never finished my OLW lol.

I’ve never done the project before but for 2022 I’m going to and choosing focus.
I did pick a word one year and did think about it through the year if that counts at all 😂 it was “brave.”
I really like joy as a choice but I want to focus on focus this year lol. And honestly, I feel like I have a lot of joy and need to focus on some other areas of my life…hence the word choice. Lol
