Melinda Gates Word for 2019

I love that Melinda Gates keeps it simple...especially when she sets her New Year's resolutions. 

Each year Melinda Gates chooses a single word to inspire and guide her rather than writing out a specific goal with measurable outcomes.  Research shows that 86% to 92% of people who set New Year resolutions fail.  You can google all the reasons why most of us fall short or just try it Melinda's way.

"Shine" is Melinda's 2019 word.

To find out more about how and why she has adopted this tradition, watch Melinda's share with Oprah on SuperSoul Sunday.  Here's the link from Melinda Gates FB: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=249321682681105

My word for 2019 is "Balance."

What's your word?
