With the end of the year fast approaching, CMSgt Dawn Kolczynski, Chief, Medical Enlisted Force shares her yearly tradition that keeps her focused on her goals throughout the year:

“Every December for the past four years, I have read the book “One Word that Will Change your Life” instead of setting a New Year's resolution that I probably won’t stick with. By following the process outlined in the book and taking time to really reflect, I have found that my 'One Word' truly becomes a foundation for me throughout the year and helps me through the ups and downs. It reminds me to stay true to myself and my beliefs when making personal and professional decisions, and it helps me get back on track when I lose sight of my goals. Your word is meant to push you and challenge you to get out of your comfort zone and not become stagnant in life. To stay focused on your word so that you don’t forget it, the book recommends posting it and sharing it with others. I have found it helpful to buy a coffee cup every year with my word on it and keep it at work with me throughout the day. It is a good conversation starter and a great way to help stay focused when faced with challenges or stressors.

This year my word was 'courage' and I have needed it often in my personal and professional life. My daughter left for college, I have traveled around the world and the AFMS has taken bold leaps to ensure we are ready to face Great Power Competition. I know 2024 will be filled with many opportunities and I am looking forward to digging into the book again to find out what my word will be for 2024.”

What 'One Word' will you strive for in 2024? If you decide to embark on this journey with her, share with AFMS-USAF-Chief, Medical Enlisted Force in the comments.
