My One Word

January 9, 2014 By: Courtney @ Eat Pray Run DC16 Comments

Cori over at Olive to Run shared a fantastic idea on her blog last week that I wanted to take part in. Cori chose one word to focus on and center her year around. I loved that idea, so thought I’d share my one word.

my one word

 

In 2014, I will be bold. I will take chances and risks. I will make bold choices in my professional life, in my personal life and in running. I will not be timid or weak. To me, living boldly means forging ahead focusing on the goal.That is what I want this year to look like for me. I want my prayer life to be bold as well. One of my goals for this year is to put God first and I know I have to strengthen my prayer life in order to do so. I want to pray bold prayers, dream bold dreams and live a bold life.

What is your one word for 2014?

    I love this! Too often we women feel like we should be quiet and demure but there is nothing wrong with being bold … celebrate it!

    BOLD is a great choice. It’s one of my favorite words.

    Bold, Relevant, Inspirational, Tenacious, Engaging – BRITE. This year I want to be BRITE. 🙂

    I love the choice of Bold for your word of the year! Mine is Commitment. I really need to prioritize those things that are important in my life (family, work, health) and re-commit to them.
