A few highlights:

87% of people, in some way create a New Year’s Resolution but 90% fail after the first month.
One Word moves you from a To Do list to a To Be list. It helps you become who you want to be.
If you want a foolproof way to be better, to become the person you are meant to be… this is for you.
The power of One Word is for you, your family, and your team.
One Word’s power is found in its simplicity.
How to find your One Word:
- Look in - Unplug from the busyness and distractions. Ask yourself: What do I need? What’s in my way? What’s got to go?
- Look up - Looking towards your creator for direction.
- Look out - Finding ways to live out your word.
One Word is powerful alone but an even greater power is unleashed when you get a Stretch Team: A handful of people who can HELP YOU live your word. To encourage you, to bless young journey alongside you.
One Word is Great for Teams Too - Individuals select their own word and then come together and select a team word that unites the team.
Remember, when you pick your word… you’ll be put in situations to apply it. Like the old saying goes… "If you pray for patience but you don’t get patience. You get opportunities to be patient."
