I am not a numerologist nor do I play one on TV, but I know a good number when I see one.

2013 came along at just the right time because it happens to contain my word of the year: THREE.  I know, a word of the year should be something glitzier like IMPACT or EMBRACE or FIERCE, but I can’t get 3 out of my head so I’m going with that.

Why 3? Because it’s easy to remember 3 things.

When I go to the store, if I only need to get 3 things I don’t have to write it down. Add a fourth item and I’m scrounging for a slip of paper so I don’t forget.

Three is also doable. If I gave you 3 things to do, you’d do them. If I gave you 5 or 7 things to do you’d spend a lot of time debating what could get done and in what space of time. You’re more likely to put something off. So stick to 3 and experience success.

Another reason I love three is it has a rich history of folklore and mythology around it. You can never run out of proverbs and sayings with the number three:

• Three wishes.

• Three wise men.

• Three graces.

• Three little pigs.

• Things come in threes.

• 3 R’s

• The Trifecta

• Triple Play

• Etc etc etc ad infinitum

On my Facebook page, I’ve posted a question that has to do with YOU, 2013, your goals, and the number 3. I invite you to click on this link, chime in with your response and please share what you’ve posted with your peeps.
