A Dead 2023 and A New-Born 2024 - My Speech
Hello fellow reader, glad to have you tune in. For whatever reason, good or bad that brought you here, I still say welcome and wish you, yes you! I wish you well. I know I have not posted here in a while. Trust me I have a lot written down and just kinda hesitate to post them. Mainly because I have conflicting ideas concerning what to post. I ask myself, I'm gonna post about money and finance or am I gonna just post what I'm philosophizing about? The truth is, I hate niches because though I seek fluency in finance, I still believe I can contribute to a lot of areas due to my expansive and open-minded reading and research style. But let's get to it, shall we?
2023 is dead for me because it is said that all things shall pass away. I don't know what you're going through but I hope you find the strength to forge ahead and the courage to keep sail for if you persist in your quest through into 2024, then your day will come eventually.
2023 began as a year for me to make some important decisions. Some were exactly out of my comfort zone and some were just a continuation of the decisions I had made in the prior year. I did accept the consequences and did what I had to do at the time with the relevant information I had. I have since begun a new life and the struggle and quest remain the same as I once indicated in one of my previous posts. While I write, it should not appear as though I have gotten to where I want to be in life because it is all a pursuit of the ultimate goal. The mindset I have is that with time, I will reap the benefits of what I'm sowing and this is the mindset I wish for you to adopt. Even though my life is not plastered all over social media, and even if I were in the shoes of the most time-free person on earth, I still wouldn't advertise it. This is not some virtue signaling but just me wanting to connect with my fervent readers.
By mid-2023, I had stopped reading books and my motivation died from that period till this January when I appear to have found my mojo back. I haven't gymed in a while due to a hamstring I picked up sometime in early 2023. If you asked me to summarize my 2023 in one word, I would definitely write in capital letters as "UNCOMFORTABLE". What I'm working on to achieve my lifelong goals is not something you want to be stressed while at it. And because 2023 was particularly an uncomfortable year, you best believe I underperformed in that task but for all its worth, I will say I now look back and enjoy the lessons it taught me. I usually just define life as a lifelong lesson and 2023 grabbed me by the wrist and said let us see how well you adhere to your definition of life.
2024 has kicked in already. The dice has been rolled and the ball is now in my court and yours. You reading, I don't know what resolutions you took but so far it's shaping nicely for me and I promised myself to write the wrongs of 2023 right this 2024. We can't predict the future so I'm not going to make any predictions. However, one great man of blessed memory (Dr. Myles Munroe) once said that success is predictable. If you eat too much sugar, don't exercise, or eat too much bad cholesterol foods, you introduce variables that can be used to predict that you'll end up obese. likewise, when you engage in the process of self-development and work hard and smart at it, it can be predicted that sooner or later you'll reap the rewards of your efforts. So, ladies and gentlemen, I'm of the latter. And it is my wish that you be of the latter too.
Now, the topic of this write-up has come to mind haha. I always just start writing and while in the process, a good topic for the article comes up. With this, I conclude by wishing you the best 2024 has to offer and I hope that you offer 2024 the chance to give you what you merit.
Until then, stay blessed
