Do YOU have a One Little Word for 2021?

This year I became aware of a 'thing' started by Ali Edwards some time ago called One Little Word...

The idea behind this is that at the start of the Calendar year, you choose one word that will be your ideal word for throughout the year. Sort of like a motto if you like...some people chop and change before they eventually settle on the one word that resonates with them the most or if you're a bit of a rule breaker like me, you'll have TWO little words.

My two little words are a little bit of a carry over from the month of December 2020 as I was going through a bit of a rough patch and my mantra became "CHOOSE HAPPY". Reminding myself over and over to choose the happy in life helped me stay away from the negativity that can sometimes be associated with the difficult times in life!

As you can see within the image above, there are so many likely candidates for the One Little Word concept that it can become truly overwhelming in the process leading up to your personal choice, but once you have found and decided upon YOUR word, its almost cathartic and that in turn gives way to feelings of relief and in a way, achievement, paving the way for a year where you can potentially focus on your one little word and reap the benefits that this mindset will ultimately deliver.

Some people dedicate planners to this effort and others create a journal to allow them to reflect on their journey throughout the year using their One Little Word at the fore of happenings during the year.
