Whoo, boy. I don’t even wish to do a recap of 2023. A lot loss. A lot heartache. And so many struggles.
In order that’s it, that’s all I’m going to say about 2023. We’re now not trying again. Simply trying ahead.
I really feel assured that 2024 goes to deliver a lot change, a lot development, and a lot pleasure!
Up to now, I’ve made lists upon lists of issues that I’m going to perform within the coming 12 months. That isn’t occurring for 2024. If something the previous years have taught me simply how true the previous adage of “We plan and God laughs” is.
So as a substitute I’ve a couple of “not going to occur” objects. After which one massive mindset objective…
Not Going to Occur
- I’m not going to neglect my bodily well being.
- I’m not going to let others disrupt my peace.
- I’m not going to tackle any extra debt!
I notice that consultants would say to state my targets as a constructive, however that has by no means labored for me up to now. I’m making an attempt one thing new. These are issues I cannot tolerate and won’t let occur this coming 12 months.
My Mindset
- Be able to say “Sure” to no matter alternatives are given me.
As I beforehand talked about, I’ve been in purge mode for fairly some time now. And sorting via my stacks and stacks of e-book has been an enormous one. I’ve sorted them by class, precedence to learn, and so forth. And this e-book gave me the motivation for this coming 12 months’s mindset.
It’s not the one one, however the title simply speaks to me in so some ways. I learn this e-book a number of years in the past and have been skimming via the passages I underlined and highlighted over the previous couple of days.
Modifications Coming in January
Listed here are some issues I’m particularly trying ahead to in January.
- Hopefully, I’ll get a begin date for my new half time job as a catering coordinator for a neighborhood quick meals restaurant.
- With tax season upon us, I anticipate having the ability to decide up some extra hours at my present half time with the accountant.
- I’m wrapping up my HUGE mission, transforming the tech stack for a neighborhood vineyard and launching their new web site subsequent week. That fee will push me into February so far as having payments lined.
- With all of the completely different work fronts I’ve going, being very intentional about my someday off per week (Sundays) goes to be essential to maintain me mentally and bodily wholesome. Planning for that now.
- Friendship! A buddy from method again that I reconnected with at my highschool reunion goes to city for his birthday weekend. It will likely be a blast to hang around and reconnect with him. (And he is aware of I’m broke so this won’t be a spending occasion, only a time spent encounter.)
I hope you’ve gotten a beautiful and secure New Years! I will probably be snuggled up with a stack of library books and my canines…studying within the New 12 months and positively asleep earlier than the clock strikes midnight.
Right here’s to essentially the most superb coming 12 months that we can’t even think about! A 12 months of YES for me!
