As the year 2020 leave and 2021 enters, that same old perspective creeps back into my thought, what do you plan to do differently this year. Every year I focus on surviving and being able to pay my bills and each year by the Grace of God, I have succeeded in surviving and paying my bills. However, is that really the direction I want to take moving into 2021 and my answer is NO.
For years, I have had so many great ideas go through my head and I always told myself that I am going to make something work out of those ideas but again, I start one and do not finish and that cycle continues. But for some strange and pleasant reason 2020 provided me with a better perspective on my life for 2021, which I have been working on implementing it even as I write this blog. I guess change is good after all.
Ten years ago, I created a site on Word Press so that I could start blogging and even begin to build my own business. Unfortunately, the site, the business, and I was quite stagnant. Again, I tried two and a half years ago, and I got my LLC for my business, but I guess I still was not hungry enough. Well after the last year and a half, I realized that I needed to stop fighting myself and begin to feed my dreams and aspirations towards my personal growth and success.
I realized that first, I needed to get out of my own way, then, I would need to pick one project to work on and get it done, and lastly, I need not to be afraid of succeeding. Yes, that last one really sounds crazy but when you are used to things being mediocre, you get comfortable with it. I was comfortable with being mediocre or even invisible, but this last year and a half has shown me that I can be better than mediocre and the destiny I make for myself is up to me.
I choose to be the best me I can be in 2021, so, instead of making a new year’s resolution, I made a promise to myself to stop sitting on my dreams and aspirations and to do what I love, not only to make me happy but other people as well.
