| A moment of reflection by the Thames Riverside |
2014 has certainly been a year for reflection.
As we usher in the new year, I would like to set out some personal goals and life changes that I've consciously started moving towards.
I've made the decision not to put a time limit on myself for each goal or change, but to actively reflect as often as I can (hopefully daily) as to what I can or have been focusing on and where I need to push a little harder or deeper to continue that growth.
2014 has been a year of inspiration.
As I've opened myself to ideas and wonderful people both online and offline, I've discovered that there are many ways to better myself which I haven't considered or been open to before now. An old friend reminded me recently of my long held desire to find meaning and a purpose in life, which prompted me to consider: why I don't feel that I'm any closer to an answer? Most of my life choices have been based on the belief that I had to find a meaning or purpose, but I was young and naive and didn't really consider where my thoughts and hence actions were leading me to.
I was almost at the point of giving up, throwing in the towel, but wherever I looked I saw examples of courage, perseverance and great spirit in the face of adversity. I just knew I wasn't done with life yet.
I hope to share with you some of the inspiration that has come into my life and reflect on how it has challenged my self perception, made me take a long hard look at what I've achieved and what I've finally managed to let go.
Some of the things I hope to cover in the coming weeks:
- How my biggest failure became my biggest asset.
- How I gained the confidence to start a blog.
- Why I dropped out, and why I no longer regret it.
- Why I learnt to love digital and social media.
- How I discovered hidden strength, and why I won't stop going back for more.
And hopefully some travel pieces!
Thank you for reading, and please feel welcome share your own experiences or blogs with me.
Warmest Regards,
Kay
