I started toying with my word for the year a few weeks ago after seeing more than one reference to it by both Christine Kane and Jon Gordon.  There are many areas I want to work on, the top three are:

1. I am going to 'refine' my photography skills (4)

2. I am going to 'refine' my dress style and some of the areas of my home and how I personally operate 

    within those areas. (6)

3. I am going to 'refine' my behaviour and language (2/7)

Have you chosen or thought about your word for 2013 - if you need some guidance, follow the two links above to Christine Kane and Jon Gordon where the philosophy behind the 'word' is explained.

Let me know if you choose a word and what your word for the year is going to be.

Hope your day is stunning.
