Hello, friends!

The New Year has arrived.

New hopes, new beginnings, new goals.

A lot of people are asking me about my goals and plans for an upcoming year.

Previously, I would present you with a long and impressive list of my goals. I would be all enthusiastic and would be dreaming real big!

But with time, life has taught me a few things. The latest one, I learned the hard way.

I believe that life is for living, enjoying, feeling, loving, growing, contributing, helping, and experiencing. These are my meanings. You have yours.

The majority of us brought into the trend of achieving for the sake of achievement. I, on the other hand, believe that success without fulfilment is an ultimate failure.

I love life. To feel life, I choose to slow down this year. Instead of sharply defined and insanely attractive goals, I will put in place an outline of my year-long journey. Apart from these outlines, I choose to keep my emotions in focus. This means that I will experience gratitude, joy, happiness, and love on a daily basis. This is my main commitment for the year of 2021.

I also used a wheel-of-life technique to see an overall picture of my life. I graded all the parts of my life to be accountable. I visualized the ideal outcomes for 2021 in these areas and wrote them down, like I said previously. I wasn’t pushy with myself this time. I choose to believe that life is not a challenge but rather an adventure to experience and enjoy.

I wish you all the best in the New Year of 2021!

And whatever life brings us remember that your happiness is always inside of you.

Love and blessings to you all!
