Here’s a simple contest. Each year I like to come up with a phrase to enter the New Year. Some are easy: “Things will be great in ’98.” “Everything’s fine in ’99.” “Like eagles we’ll soar in 2004.” “Living extreme in 2013.” What about this coming year? What can we use as a motto for 2014?
On January 2nd of last year I asked you to share your ideas for slogans for 2013. Well, about 10 minutes after the newsletter went out – your ideas started pouring in – at the rate of about 100 an hour for the next several days. We received thousands of submissions with several hundred each using the rhyming words, “clean,” “glean,” “keen,” “serene,” and “green.” Probably 500 of you used some form of Living the Dream in 2013 – or achieve, accomplish, capture or seize the dream.
I was surprised how many of you used “routine” and gave reasonable explanations for expecting to change that to make 2013 a great year. We received every possible combination imaginable, and then unique entries like Randy Winsinger’s “If I stay in my job I’ll need a new spleen in 2013” to Elijah Coleman’s “Pay off your liens in 2013” and Lloyd Richardson’s “No more rice and beans in 2013.”
So here we go again. Submit your entry in the comments below. Let’s keep it from 3-10 words so it’s easy to state and keep in our minds. We have the same alliteration – 2013 and 2014. But be creative.

No more poor me in 2014
Just do it in 2014
“Activate Your Dream in 2014″ !!! Still the best post and here is why: First, word itself calls for immediate action. It is motivational and powerful. Second, word ” your” is important! It summs up ” 48 Days” well and at the same time reminds us how MY dream is different than YOURS. Therefore, we should go after our own dream, not what is expected from us from parents, peers, etc.Lastly, that dream CAN come true. And 2014 can be the begining of it.
One more thing…this is exactly what I wanted to post, but as I was reading thru other people’s comments, I saw it there already :). So, as Vikki was faster but had exactly the same idea, I can continue to vote for her post ;).
Launch… And then soar, in 20-1-4.
What does it all mean? Find out in 2014
It’s unavoidable. Realx & enjoy 2014.
