Lets start the year right

The first weekend of the new year is here. 

Last year was a tiring one. 

Everywhere around the world, work from home was ending. Inflation was rising, the news of wars and unrest continued to pop up on our phones, iPads and TV's.

But that's all over now.

However, Its now been 4 days into the new year, and 2025 does'nt seem to have even started for me. Lethargy and tiredness have'nt left me. I feel happy within but my body refuses to listed to my mind.

I promised myself i will write, paint and publish again this year. I didnt post even once in 2024 across blogs, across my channels. But I did get a lot of things accomplished.

  • My vacation house completed a year on AirBnB.
  • I setup a company in Dubai
  • and I didn't sell my crypto when the things got bad :) :)

Now lets look at 2025. No resolutions, a few goals. but how do I start.

So here's the recipe I am going to follow for

Instead of falling into the trap of trying to work toward all my new goals at once, I am going to move intentionally for greater longevity. 

I will steer away from stressing if I have a quiet first few weeks of January. 

After all slow and steady wins the race!

 

I am going to keep time aside to get organized. I am setting aside a few hours every day in my calendar, all of January to get my ducks in a row. Cleaning up cupboards, cleaning up emails, my book shelf, diaries, my stationary collection, my garden, my contact list, my messages, digital backups, my drawers and in the process my mind.


Taking self-reflection seriously. 

This(January) is a fertile time to look back at what last year offered me. I am going to write an autobiography of me in 2024 and see what I learn about me today.

I want to use this to see how I want to move differently this year. I want to use all of January to reconsider my life goals, my current sense of self, and my future direction.


To a lot more writing, painting, posting in 2025. Stay Happy

As we welcome January's Wolf Moon on the 13th, we're greeted by a powerful celestial event that beckons us to look inward. This Full Moon in Cancer isn't just the first lunar spectacle of 2025—it's an cosmic invitation to dive deep into our emotional waters.
