If there is one thing I love about minimalism, is the fact that the lifestyle prioritizes detox. The lifestyle of consciously choosing to declutter, cleanse, and simplify various aspects of your life, will enhance the most important areas. It’s like clearing your wardrobe and getting rid of clothes that are not important to make space for more important clothes.
As the year 2024 comes to an end, I took it upon myself to reminisce about everything that had happened from the beginning of the year. The accomplishment, the goals I set, the ones I was able to achieve, and the ones I wasn’t able to achieve. The loss and the gains. The happiness and the sadness. The new friends I made and the ones I had to stop being friends with. Regardless of everything that happened in 2024, I must say that adapting to the minimalist lifestyle was a great choice.
I have encountered lots of things and eventually, I have set new goals for 2025, so definitely there are things I would not want to take along with me into 2025. This year 2024, I had Unnecessary commitments, I am leaving that behind. I realized I was caught up in lots of things and most times it made me extremely busy but in the long run, I realized that most of these activities were not even important to me. I had to fix activities into my schedule and at a point I felt like I had zero time for myself.
I have come to realize that, this act wasn’t helpful, I wasn’t able to do some important things. I am going into 2025, with a clearer schedule and not taking up unnecessary commitments that make me disorganized. I will learn to evaluate my schedule and learn to drop things that are not important or in compliance with my goals or even bring me joy and growth.
I met the most broken version of myself this 2024, I had lots of things to do and at a point, I lost that spark in myself. I am getting rid of Negative Mindset. I had times when I was faced with a lot of challenges and I kept asking myself if I could do certain things or if I was able to achieve those things. I am leaving behind Negative Mindset. I have decided to have a Positive mindset in whatever I am doing. No matter what happens “I am the BEST and I can achieve anything I want.”
Recently, I had an exam that I was prepared for but then I was scared and I had low confidence I had to call my mom who made me feel better. I realized that I have low self-esteem and it has limited me in several ways. I find it difficult to do some things cause I sometimes say to myself that I can’t do it or sometimes I try not to do it to avoid failure or terrible results. Well, I am letting go of such an attitude. Regardless of being realistic, I will be optimistic and I will do away with Low self-esteem and a negative mindset.
It could be difficult but I am certain that, since I have set my mind to get rid of these, then I am going to leave them behind. Yes, 2024 was great but in 2025, I will be more intentional with myself and choose things that will give joy and boost my overall well-being and happiness.
