A New Year's Letter to Myself

2021 brought so much change. It opened the door to creating my own space for my business and the push I needed to finally leave my day job and pursue a full time career in publishing. As I sat and reflected on how far the last year has brought me, I began to turn my focus to where this new year will take me. No, it won't be easy. But I am ready. Bring it on 2022. 

I've got big things brewing! Happy New Year to each and every one of you. 🥂🥳 I hope it is a year of focus and growth! 💕 


 

Video transcript:

 If you want something — if you really want something — you don't let anything stand in your way.

You have to stop asking the questions that make you say no: Do you know how? Have you ever done this before? Are you trained for this? Can you afford it?

You have to break down walls and build new ones.

You have to know your why before you know your how. You have to know your why before the how appears. You have to believe in your why.

You have to believe in yourself. You have to believe in magic.

This isn't your destiny. This is your journey.

This is where you get broken. This is where you are rebuilt.

This is where you find yourself and it is where you are reborn.

It's where the reflection of your past differs from your future but informs your path because you've learned so much.

It's grabbing life by the balls.

It's being afraid but trying anyway.

It's failing. It's hurting. It's doubting. It's persevering. It's breaking free.

It's falling in love with who you see yourself becoming. It's deciding you're not a shadow; you're a fricking sunbeam and you're ready to ignite the passion that's laid dormant in the souls of the people you meet.

You are strong. You are confident. You are afraid but you don't care.

You are ready. This is your time. You earned this. You built this. You are this. You are going to knock this year flat on its face.

Now go.

  3. Writing a letter to yourself is the best way to understand your feelings, emotions, goals and plans. There are a lot of things you can't disclose to others because you are afraid that when you hire someone to take my online exam, you're afraid to get bad academic grades.

  4. It is indeed a very motivating post for students, employees trying for so long to build their own small business but they always feel fear while taking this decision by quitting their jobs. Also there are students who want to give full time to their startups but they don't have time because of their classes, they can pay someone to do my online class to get free from the tension of their online classes so they can focus properly on their business and side hustle properly.

  5. I am so excited to finally be pursuing a full-time career in publishing in 2022! I have been wanting to do this for so long and I am finally ready to take the plunge. One of the things that has been holding me back is finishing do my online course. But I am determined to finish it and then I will be ready to pursue my dream career. I have always been interested in publishing and have loved reading since I was a child. I have always been fascinated by the process of taking a book from an idea to a finished product that people can hold in their hands and enjoy. I am excited to be able to finally pursue this dream of mine and I can't wait to see what the future holds.
