Tomorrow is the 31st of December 2017. It also happens to be our 10th wedding anniversary. Such moments always make me reflect on the past. I celebrate my victories but i also look for learnings and see what i could have done better. I read somewhere (paraphrased) that success is a lousy teacher that seduces people into thinking they are invincible.
So here is the one thing that really stood out for me that i will not be taking with me into the future…..toiling……. and not living in the moment. Let me put this into context.
I am in general a very forward looking person. I believe in planning for the future. I believe that my tommorow has to be better than today and i believe that i need to take the necessary steps to make this possible. I am so forward looking that sometimes i forget to live and enjoy the here and now.
As i was reflecting, i had too many examples of not living and enjoying the moment that i have made up my mind that this is not something I would like to carry into the future. I will not stop planning for my future and working towards the future i want, but i will also balance this a good dose of enjoying the here and now.
A victorious 2018 to you…
