exactly! nothing - no number or levels of goals we set should outweigh how we genuinely feel about ourselves day to day

I literally was just thinking about this!! January 1st is about to end from where I'm from and I realized how I hadn't bothered putting up a recap or even set my goals for 2025 yet. I thought to myself, I can do those later. For now, I'll focus on being present with the festivities and just enjoy them!

Happy new year! I find all those lists, whether they’re recaps of what I’ve done the previous year, or what I intend to accomplish in the coming year, so boring after a while. A friend asked me last night what my goals were for the year and I said that I just wanted to do more things with the people I love, and make memories. That’s it. I will be a happy camper if that happens.

Thank you so much for your excellent articles, I really enjoy your writing. 💕

It’s like you took the jumbled words out of my brain and organized them so eloquently. So incredibly well said!
