Reverb 10 is community of bloggers reflecting on 2010 & manifesting what’s next. Daily writing prompts guide us. My response to the Dec 1 prompt to choose one word for 2010:
One word to sum up my 2010. Doubt. And I don’t mean that in a downer sort-of way… Deep doubt can be debilitating. Or maybe it’s a signal to get clear on life. I had a big doubts in 2010– Where was my art going? What was I doing with my art business? What was my safe path? Were my dreams possible?
Were my big dreams too scary?
Now that I’ve gotten to the heart of the matter, the rest is easier & harder. My big dreams are scary, but not too scary. I’m planning to fail a lot in 2011. And to have wild success. My word for 2011: Expansion.

Staying small isn’t always safe.
Cheers to failing lots and succeeding wildly!
I’ve been trying all week to think of a word for 2011, and I keep coming back to “allowing.” I like yours, expansion. I plan to fail a lot in 2011, too, and succeed even more. Maybe I’ll steal your word, but I’ll probably go with allowing. Maybe expand next year, if I allow it :)
