new year, new me
each new year’s brings ambitious goals that we all hope and wish to achieve. I’ve been trying to achieve small goals or practice patience with big goals, and although I still want to be the best at everything, I’m giving myself grace. By the way, at this point, I really only compete with myself. But this is going to be the year. I can truly feel it. So, what are my goals? And what do I hope to achieve?
One of my goals is to spend this year socializing more. I don’t necessarily want to get into it, but after my experience, I have found myself surrounded by family with not many friends. I’m still healing from the loss. But, this year, I want to find my people. And strengthen the relationships that I do have. Socializing finally brings me joy again, and I hope I can find friends in Chicago that match my vibe. I’ve learned to only let in the people that will honor and take care of the friendship, and I know those people are out there. With that, I’ll be putting myself into positions that allow me to meet friends. I have to get over the hurt of past relationships and form new ones with boundaries in line.
On the topic of putting myself out there, another one of my goals is to start sharing my blog with people through social media. I do all this work, and no one actually sees it and I do believe it’s good enough now to share. I’ve made social media accounts for You are my muses and I’m going to develop an audience for the material. My art and writing mean so much to me because it represents and serves as an outlet for my past and the struggles that I still endure. If it resonates with anyone, I think it’s served its purpose further by helping others that have been through or are going through the same. And I mean it when I say You are my muses. Without this world, and the people in it, it wouldn’t be possible.
Now, my big goal is a major one. I am going to publish my first book. Yeah, that’s right! I’m going to publish the dystopian novel I have written called I am God. Guys, this is my baby. Talk about inspiration- my whole journey was fictitious, and I wrote a fiction novel to get myself through it. I swear, anytime I was struggling with this or that, I turned it into an aspect of I am God. The messages are somewhat riddled, and some are very clear, but the entire thing means the world to me. AND this is the creative project that I am most confident about. I worked hard on it. My goal is to be done by August 2025 and submit before the end of the year. This one right here is going to change my life.
So, that’s it, ya’ll. I have plenty of other mini goals and I bet you do, too, but focus on your dreams- no matter how big- and let’s get it done!
xoxo.
