While I will be writing about my own year in this post. I encourage you to reflect on your accomplishments too. I would advise against JUST<\/em> thinking about it. Write it down! Trust me, once you starting writing things down, you’ll start remembering things you have done that you have forgotten about! I wrote this post out in multiple sittings over a couple of weeks – things would come to me. \u2728<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know there are people out there, maybe it’s you, who are feeling down and telling themselves that they did not do enough these past 12 months, they should of done this, they should of done that… We can spend our time thinking about all the things we wish we did or did differently… but why not choose to celebrate what we did do instead? You have the power to choose what you believe about yourself. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A year, while it seems to have just disappeared in the blink of an eye, is a long time. I’m confident that you have done at least one thing that you are proud of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AND, please, while reading this, do NOT compare what I have done with what you have done or not done. We all have our own journeys, they are our own experiences and no one can take them from us, nor can they fairly be compared to anyone else!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Invested<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Finally, for the first time I invested some money into stocks. Also, cryptocurrency. This is for long-term income. I kept putting it off for so long even though I knew inside that I had to at least try. Sure enough, once I took the time to do so… I was super into it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cool thing about investing into companies is that you get to choose what companies you put your money into. Successful investing requires research. Surprisingly, I found the whole experience empowering. Every now again, I check in on my investments, but I mostly sit on them and wait! <\/p>\n\n\n
