Looking back at this past year, I can say it has been filled with so many highs and lows and a LOT of learning experiences along the way. I’ve mentioned it before in my blog and Instagram posts that trying to find a good balance between all the hats I wear on a daily basis has been tough since becoming a mother. When it was just my hubby and I, there was more time, more freedom, and less responsibilities to worry about. But now, with a growing family (plus Baby M making her debut in mid Feb), I want to be more deliberate with my time and how I’m spending it.
I want to MAKE MEANINGFUL CONNECTIONS - new ones as well as re-kindle old ones – with good people because time is the most precious gift you can give someone. Those that matter most to me and those that invest in me, personally and professionally are the ones that I want to invest in because they can help me learn, grow, and succeed as a wife, mother, business owner, and Christian woman.
I want to be a GOAL DIGGER. This ties into planning, but I want to set small goals for myself throughout the year and hold myself accountable to accomplishing them on time. This doesn’t even have to be business-related. For example, a personal goal I would like to set for myself after the baby is born in Feb is to train for a half-marathon later on in the year to motivate myself to getting back into shape. I am by no means a good runner, but I have always believed that until you step outside of your comfort zone, you’ll never truly know what you are capable of.
