OUT WITH THE OLD, IN WITH THE NEW
This past year, 2024, was a good year for me. A lot happened. A lot of which I did not take notice of until much later when they were well past and probably, I saw, heard, read, or just had this shocking revlation(not with my eyes close or anything of sort) that they had happened.

And then there were the ones, the few that I was awake and sensitive enough to acknowledge when they happened. As with most people, or everyone else, I had my fair share of experiencing a paradigm or should I say that I came to the knowledge of things that I want and do not want for them to be.
I had a number of 'firsts' last year. I did good work with pushing myself and doing things that I never would have attempted some two years ago and things that I always put off for an assumed better time even when I knew that they would be beneficial to me right now and in time to come. It was good.
This year, one of the things I would not be doing is putting things off. I know that maybe I have mentioned how I find myself procrastinating every now and then and then not going through with things, particularly because of doubt and anxiety and fear that I worked my mind into. I also know that I have been trying on my end and gradually helping myself come off that habit, but now, this year, I plan to eliminate it completely.
There's no time, and these days, I tell myself that it's not that hard. I'm just roo tense and too worried. And maybe I struggle with starting. I guess that maybe you can understand when I say that starting something is difficult. I'm going to get past procrastinating and my fear of trying and just do stuff. I did have a number of those moments last year, but this year, I'm not letting myself get in there.
On the other hand..
I plan to be consistent. There's this saying to follow the plan and not the mood, and that's what I plan to walk through the year by. I'm showing up this year. For all the goals that I have set and all the heights that I hope to reach for everything that I strive to become, I will show up.
One thing I have promised myself and that I pray to stay true and disciplined to is that even when it gets boring or exhausting and even when I don't see all the progress or even when it seems that I am not making any progress at all, I will show up and do what I have to do. I will show up and do the work even if i do it for half the stipulated time. I know... I know that this is a lot better for me and for my growth than skipping 'just' one day and/or one session. This year, im out to build consistency
