Word of the year, answered.
What is a word of the year?
One word you choose to stand on for the next twelve months. Not a goal and not a resolution. A direction you can come back to on an ordinary Tuesday.
How do I choose my word of the year?
Start with the year you actually had, notice which part of your life keeps coming up, and pick a word you can practice this week. The free quiz above walks you through it in seven questions.
What do I do with my word once I have it?
Put it somewhere you will see it every week. In The Year of You planner it lives on the Her Word, Her Three page, beside three small promises you keep each week.
Can my word change during the year?
It can. A word is a direction, not a contract. If a season asks for something different, take the quiz again.

Your word has a page waiting for it.
Inside The Year of You there is a page called Her Word, Her Three. One word for the year, three small promises chosen fresh each week, and fifty two undated weeks that wait for you. You cannot fall behind, because there is no behind.
