A Fresh Start - What Will You Do Differently in 2025?

Finally, we have stepped into the dawn of a new year, a fresh start for everyone of us. I don’t know about others but for me, there’s something about January that makes me have a sober reflection about my life in general, choices have made, relationships, achievements, failures, and the lessons I’ve learned. January gives you that opportunity to sit down for a moment, think and decide how you want the rest of your story to go this year 2025.

Last year taught me a very big lesson that reshaped my perspective towards life and that is “been consistent”. I never really had that feeling that I was making progress in my life. Whether it was building my steem power or moving up the ladder in my career. But so far so good, I’ve realized that, showing up consistently either in good or bad times is indeed a game changer. I was able to hit a milestone on steemit and also got elevated in my career. Those little steps I put in every day, finally added up and turned out to be one of my proudest achievements.

One area of my life I want to work on this year is in the area of “time management”, I am totally bad at it. I keep procrastinating things, forgetting that time waits for no one and when I’m finally ready to work on my project, I’ve to start rushing to meet up with the little time left. But with a perfect time management structure in place, I would have done more without been overwhelmed or burning out my energy. So this year, I’m making it a priority to manage my time better even if it means setting a time alarm or reminder every hour to make sure I am doing the right thing at the right time, I’ll do it.

A habit I will like to pick up this year is regular reflections of my activities every month. I have never done this before, I only do it end of year. But after listening to a motivational speaker on podcast, I think is something I should be doing monthly to evaluate my progress or know if I’m getting closer to the goals I’ve set up for the year.

• One of my main plans for this year is getting myself a laptop and hopefully between now and march, I would have gotten one.

• Gaining mastery in data analysis is another vision I have for this year 2025 once I get a laptop.

• Before the ending of September , I plan to achieve 7000 steem power and it will be a great milestone to mark my second year in steemit. I know it might look to ambitious but I believe it’s achievable if I remain consistent with my plans which includes;

  1. Try my best to create meaningful content that people can relate with and my topics this year will be more on our finances.
  2. Increase my club status to club75 but this is subject to change
  3. Increase my network on the platform by commenting more to make me visible.
