It is very surreal that today is my birthday! However, it’s a good time to reflect on the past and coming year.
I love that my birthday falls toward the beginning of each year. It provides a great milestone for setting goals for the new year. I’ve decided that this year I am setting overall goals to achieve instead of resolutions.
Foremost, by this time next year, I want to be happy with how this year has gone. I want to have witnessed positive growth and a trajectory along my career path. I drifted most of last year because of the harassment at work. I will never allow that to happen again. Life is too short to drift. I am a person of direction and talent.
I will continue to try new avenues, but if by this time next year I am still bumping into walls, then it’s time to call it a day and return home. I’m happy to make a home in a new place, but I’m not happy to remain in a place where I run into dead-ends. I’d rather run into dead-ends in my own culture.
For this coming year, I am envisioning where I want to be by this time next year, and I will achieve it. I will never look back on a year and feel I have drifted again.
