One Little Word® 2016 | The Reading Of The Words

Mine is Action. So far, it's a good word, since we decided to move out of state at the end of January.

My word is LIMIT :)
'Every limit is a beginning as well as an ending'

I liked to read this list.
This year I didn't sign up for the workshop One Little Word. I did it last year and thought , as I hadn't done anything , it was a complete failure for me. My 2015 word was BE. When I thought about this word, I was going to forget me , forbade me to do things or thought not to be able to do those things. Too many fears (new places, new people, what if I fail, what do people think about me..). I needed to BE brave, feminine, aware of who I am...
After 3 months and nothing jotted down, I said to myself "ok this is not for me, I can't write anything" But was still looking at the lessons. Later, I thought "perhaps I haven't CHOOSE the right word. Perhaps CHOOSE should be my word (another fear: what if I'm making the wrong choice)." Then (a couple months later), you write posts for the 2016 OLW. I bought the gold and creme album with the idea of not using it for OLW because I would not do OLW. The word CHOOSE reappeared, trotting in my head. But I chose not to do OLW.
By reading these words , I thought about this choice and the past year. Last year, I met new people, went to new places, was more feminine (as I used to be in the past), I allowed myself to do more, thinking "I can do this". I even drove alone for 7 hours to go to a place I did not know, full of unknown people (crop EA in Montpellier). And I'm really glad I did. I will never thank you enough for that because if you hadn't been there, I wouldn't probably have done it.
Finally this is not a complete failure.
This is not a failure and now it's time to be a CHOOSER.
Thank you
Virginie

ps: sorry if I'm not clear

There is power in hearing these words out loud! Thank you Liz for reading them again!!

Mine is Transform. I added it to the FB Group but never commented here!

Thanks Ali, for compiling the list and to your friend, Liz, for reading them. I agree it is powerful to hear them. Michelle t

My word is NOW and I'd like to enjoy my life fully and focus on happiness right in front of me.
Ali, can I ask where the list of words above were collected? I wasn't sure where to mention my word to be in the list. Thanks!

My word is healthy. I need to focus on getting my body and mind healthy this year. This is the perfect opportunity to do just that. I am so happy I found OLW.

My word is ACT. I put it on the FB group but not here.

My word is already on the list, nurture. I'm really looking forward to doing this project!!!

My word is AUTHENTICITY. I also added it to the FB list.

Hi Ali, I love seeing and hearing many different One Little Words. A few days ago and just in time for the new year, I first learned about your OLW project through Elise's podcast (it's my favorite :) ). I was stuck briefly until OLW hit me: Leap. I don't see it on your list, and that excites me AND freaks me out - ha! On my blog, I wrote about why I chose it and the excitement it's generated so far. I'm attempting to transition into a creative career as a solo-preneur, and I think "leap" will be the kick on the booty that I'll need - often - in 2016. I think I'll order an acrylic mini of it and maybe sign up for the class too so that I can give and receive support and share in the OLW journey with the community. Thanks for this. :) ~Jules

This is my first time joining OLW, and I'm excited for the adventure. My word is Fearless.

Me too! Mine is healthy.

My word is confidence.

My word is aim-so much symbolism and possibility in this word for me!

Hello!
My word? REVOLUTION! :)

It is amazing to hear all all of the words read aloud. Liz is very relaxing to listen to

Hello Ali
Mine is CARPE DIEM... I posted it in the forum but don't see it in the list;-) Thanks for this incredible course

My word Is still me being torn between PROSPER and PROSPERITY. I wasn't going to mention it because I thought it would be on the list but it's not this year. I took a couple years off but am happy to be back!
