One Little Word 2013

I am embarking on a journey in 2013 with Ali Edwards' One Little Word class.  This is my first time doing this project and trying this sort of focus for a year.

My word for 2013 is ENJOY.  I have very clearly noticed that in the last few years I have not been enjoying my life.  I've dealt with a couple cases of postpartum depression, anxiety, a stressful work environment, etc.  I haven't been having fun, enjoying my many blessings and enjoying myself in general.  This year I want to recapture the joy in my life and enjoy each and every moment, special, mundane, and everywhere in between.

To help me to focus each and every month of enjoying more - I have created 12 intentions, one for each month of the year.  With each of these I will pick a tangible action to help me focus on my intentions in a tangible way.

In no particular order, here are my 12 intentions:

1) enjoy family
2) enjoy creating
3) enjoy friends
4) enjoy change
5) enjoy unpredictability
6) enjoy being healthy
7) enjoy the day-to-day
8) enjoy my marriage
9) enjoy learning
10) enjoy simplicity
11) enjoy being frugal
12) enjoy myself

Over the next few days, I am going to be creating my OLW title page and pulling together my intentions and actions and putting them in my album.  I will definitely share those pages as I finish them.  I will also be sharing my PL title page in the next day or so.  It is almost done!

  1. A great way to get back to what is important. I am still mulling over whether to join or not, but already have word chosen if I do (focus). I know how it feels to get de-railed a bit...gotta get back to the line we are meant to be riding. Best of luck on your journey!
