Where should I even start? Should I begin with the fact that I didn’t achieve probably 80% of my goals for 2024? Nah, that wouldn’t be fair. But here’s the thing: while I may not have accomplished most of what I set out to do, the events that unfolded this year are things I couldn’t be more grateful for. The biggest lesson I’ve learned is to embrace redirections, stop overthinking, and take action.

Looking back—not just to the start of 2024, but to the past years as well—the most memorable moments are those I never planned. I’m not saying you should stop planning, but if things don’t go as expected, maybe a better path is unfolding. It might not make sense right now, but trust me, it will eventually.

Happy New Year!
