Good evening ladies. Welcome to my blog. Just like every other year, setting goals and steps to make progress for the year has become a normal thing to do. Whatever one is striving for, a healthy and comfortable lifestyle, growth in one's career, self-improvement,etc, to achieve progress, there are two things that are key and important, being consistent and being able to adapt.
At the beginning of the year, I just took time to reflect on the previous year, steps I took, things I did and those I didn't do, mistakes I made and my achievement too. It took a while for me to sit and write/ plan steps for my progress this new year. I will be sharing some of the steps I've written down.
Firstly, I had to take my time to define what progress is to me. To me progress meant being financially comfortable, stable mental health and physical health, creating and keeping better relationships. I put my mind to creating clear goals. For example:
❌ "I want to do better in my writings."
✅ "I will read three times a week and write regularly and expand my vocabulary."
Secondly, another step is me to grow a mindset that's all about development. I believe that they are things i can do if I put in effort and I'm persistent with doing those things. Go through challenges without giving up and seeing it as an opportunity to learn more. And to make this really easier, I decided to surround myself with people that will inspire me to grow and encourage me.
Thirdly, one of the steps I've decided to take this year is that of prioritizing my time. That was one of the mistakes I made in 2024, Time Mismanagement. I was distracted alot and took my time to things that were less important than those that were more important.
The fourth step is to invest more into my learning. There's a lady I have studied for the past few months. She took it upon herself to learn what she could, infact anything she knew was profitable, she was into it. And trust me there was a lot of changes around her. I started listening to podcasts on my Spotify app and it has really helped me on my personal development. I have planned to do more of workshops and seminars this year.
Lastly, I intend to invest more and save too. Our personal progress in 2025 is definitely in our own hands. With having clear and realistic goals, being consistent and putting more effort, and the rest this can be our best year yet.
See you at the top my ladies.
