Happy New Year everyone! I hope that your 2025 will be filled with prosperity and abundance. Speaking of which, I’ve seen people post about their 2024 success and reflection. The thing is... If 2024 was a shit year for you and all you did was survive, congrats on both of us! We made it through the year.

There’s nothing I could be proud of that year except.... one thing.

Towards the end of 2024, I decided to take the steering wheel of my life, which resulted in the 90-day challenge that I’ve been doing. I didn’t have to wait until the new year to make new resolutions; all I did was simply take 90 days at a time to change or improve aspects of my life that I didn’t like.

Getting to this point wasn’t easy, but look at me having this proper photo shoot. I would never have done that in a lifetime. I was that broody kid, and I felt like I was being guilt-tripped for wanting to show myself.

Honestly, as ugly as I could be, I don’t think there’s an apparent reason why we should hide ourselves. Gaining that confidence back was something huge in improving my life.

You could say I spent years dimming my light because I was subtly encouraged. The thing is, I was also stupid enough to follow, and rather than standing up on my ground, I succumbed to those ideas. I let people gaslight me left and right just because they were my closest of closest friends. My friendship is like layers of onion, and I tend to believe anything the nearest person tells me. The thing is, sometimes they can be the snake that bites and poisons you. I learned my lesson, and now, who cares what anybody has to say? I take their advice but won’t dwell/think on it for too long.

By the end of 2024, I had regained my old sense of self. It’s nothing too victorious, but I am glad I took that difficult path of owning up to my mistakes, working to fix them, and perfecting what I needed to do. My journey didn’t really stop me there, and I don’t think it would ever. I reset my needs every 90 days and worked on things that needed to be done.

I didn’t travel as much as I wanted. I had to put everything on the back burner because my family was my priority that year. I was suddenly tasked with a huge responsibility, and that’s why even my personal development involves navigating real adulthood.

You can see that this week's chart is a little different from before. I removed two things that aren’t so dire and need fixing. Now, I am just focusing on my Comptia prep, House Projects, and working out. I haven’t really finished and reached my desired goal when it comes to fitness, so I keep on that one. At the same time, keeping only these seems a lot more feasible as I also need quite a bit of spare time these 90 days.

As you know, I am also working on introducing hive to the Indonesian market, and there are some challenges here and there. It requires more of my hands-on time, and I can’t just focus on myself entirely. So, that’s why I can only have a few things optimized for what I need.

I haven’t posted and commented as often as I’d like due to how preoccupied I’ve been this holiday season. I will do that again this month, especially since I want to return to my previous engagement level. At the same time, I felt like my communities have been a little abandoned during the holiday season, and I’d love to revive them again. That’s why I also made some plans so that everything would have its time and get a piece of my attention.

That's all for this week update! It's actually pretty surprising to me that I can stick to workout and everything else in my list despite my current schedule lately.

This was insightful, and yeah, even if the only thing we achieved last year was being able to survive, that in itself is something to be proud about.

I love how you're going about your goals. That way you don't feel pressured and you can just take it one step at the time. I'm glad you feel more confident in yourself and I hope you get more comfortable with showcasing the beauty that is you in all forms. Have a wonderful day, dear. Happy New Year!🥰

Indeed! That's why I wrote about this since I've seen people talk about their achievements and some people do are just surviving. So that's why hehe. Have a wonderful year to you too and Happy New Year 😊

Little here, little there and that’s how you fill up the boxes, hehe.

Happy new year, Macchiata. 🌹

I totally agree with you when you said we don’t have to wait for a new year before we do new things. This challenge you’ve started is definitely what will make this year a new year indeed and not just another year.

I know how busy we might get sometimes and I admire what you’ve started and I wish you all the best.

By the way, you look really beautiful and cute. I love your hair. 🤭

Have a new year indeed! ❤️

hahaha that's true! Happy New Year and I hope this year will bring more luck and prosper to you. Thank you for liking my hair, they need some care though because I colored it too much

Thank you for the beautiful wishes.

Oh! I didn’t notice the too much coloring, it just looks nice, hehe.

Happy New Year to you too! :)

Hope this 2025 will bring us more prosperity!

I don't think there's a proper reason to hide yourself away either (and by the way, you have a lovely smile!). It's a brave thing, though, to set out to show more of yourself to the world. So tempting to hide.

Re. your subtitle there, it seemed the theme of my New Year gathering, too. I was talking to someone who had just lost her father and she was saying just how, despite it being a profoundly shitty year, there's still hope since we were all there to celebrate a new year. Surely, if life was that bad, we would stop celebrating. I thought it was an interesting thought to ponder, for sure.

Happy New Year :)

Thank you so much! I think at the end of the day, knowing there's hope and working on finding those hope is really is what matters. Happy New Year to you and I hope your year is going to be awesome.

I would say you had a great year. I hope 2025 will be better.

I really hope so!

It’s great to witness your commitment to self growth and the changes you’ve embraced along the way. I really hope everything we’re working on continues to go smoothly and creates a positive impact in the Indonesian market.😄

Let's hope so 😄

I have always thought that the time to make adjustments and changes in our lives is not the end of the year itself, but the determination to take the present in your hands and carry out everything that contributes to your well-being.

Sometimes, many circumstances in life minimize the concept of our personal worth, so we must also reflect and cultivate things that contribute to our good. Do you consider yourself ugly? I think you're looking in the wrong mirror! Because I consider you a beautiful person, so don't stop showing yourself to the world as you are 🥰.

It is evident great job you do and all that on a family level you have to carry, but still don't stop pampering yourself and giving you a special space for yourself ☺️

Flowers for you my friend 💐💐💐 😎

😂 I think we all have wrong mirrors everywhere. It's more about not to look on it too long cause otherwise you'll get caught up on that comparison and listened to that dark voices for too long. 😊 I hope 2024 will bring you more prosperity!

Better in 2025 my friend 😂😂🤗
