Why wait till the new year to get our act together?

I’ve slipped into this trap. But there are no hard and fast rules for making goals and pursuing aspirations, so why limit ourselves?

Let me share some of my 2023 “goals” and see if I accomplished them:

Get into a doctorate programme — No

Drivers license — No

Move out of London — Process

Find my dream job — No

Travel more — No

Be kinder to myself — Process

Pray / Mediate in my routine — Yes

Get my dream overall grade in my masters — Yes

I can see I haven’t accomplished all of them, but that’s alright.

Everything happens for a reason.

The important thing is to hold ourselves accountable. Anything is achievable, we just need to work a little harder. We’re more than capable. In any case, be proud of yourself.

Have you met your 2023 goals?
