Go where it takes you.
Be who it makes you.
It’s time for a pause.
At its core, One Word 365 has always been about intentionality. In my current season of life, I’m lacking the capacity to focus on One Word 365 with the intentionality it deserves. After 13 years, a pause is in order.
I hope to resume this incredible global community again down the road. In the meantime, I trust you’ll continue living with the same focus that has inspired me for over a decade. I am beyond grateful for your engagement and encouragement all these years. You and your one-word journeys have impacted me greatly.
Thank you!

Forget New Year’s Resolutions. Scrap that long list of goals you won’t remember a few weeks from now anyway!
Choose just one word.
One word you can focus on every day, all year long… One word that sums up who you want to be or how you want to live.
It will take intentionality and commitment, but if you let it, your one word will shape not only your year, but also you. It will become the compass that directs your decisions and guides your steps.
Discover the big impact one word can make.
One word. 365 days. A changed life.
Choose your word for 2022 and sign up.
It’s that simple.
One Word 365 is more than a new way to approach resolutions. It’s a global tribe committed to journeying together and living intentionally.
You can connect with others who have chosen the same word or live in your area. Together, we can inspire and challenge each other to live purposefully all year long.
The start of a new year doesn’t hold any magical powers for fresh starts. Unfortunately there’s no bippity-boppity-boo that occurs on January 1st to bring to life the whole “new year, new me” mantra. Nah… It’s just another day. Just another month.
But…
The start of a new year does hold the promise of clean slates and new horizons and blank pages waiting to be filled. It drips with potential, as we look back to take stock and look ahead at what’s in front of us: both known and unknown. It bursts wide open with the ever-present reminder that while there’s so much that’s out of our control, we still get to choose. We get to choose how we will respond to what comes our way. We get to choose who we want to be — in the midst of the joys as well as the heartaches. We get to choose what we want to set our sights on.
We have those choices always. This time of year is just really good at reminding me to be more intentional with my decisions.
I’d love to hear what word you’ve chosen to focus on this year, and why. If you feel like sharing, please do!
