Welcome 2025
It’s that time of the year again when most productive and growth-minded people sit down and focus on their goals 🏆, their identity, and who they want to be.
We divide our lives into years, conceptualize our identities in years, so it makes sense that the turning of a year will coincide with some introspection and realignment of one’s values.
This year, instead, I’d like to talk to you about something adjacent to goals, but far more important: ✨ SKILLS✨ .
Just remember, we set goals to allow personal or professional success. But nobody talks about the skills required to do this. 🔑
Self awareness is a skill. Managing emotions is a skill. Setting boundaries is a skill. Finding a sense of purpose and passion in what you do is a skill. Self-respect, in many ways, is even a skill. These are skills. They are something you develop with time, that you gain through experience, that you can consciously practice and attempt to foster within yourself.
It really feels like 2022 will be a year of creativity, courage and learning new skills! ✨
So, What skills do you want to develop this year?
What are you improving at?
What are you learning and gaining?
Instead of thinking about what you want to achieve in the new year, ask yourself, “What do I want to be good at that I’m not?”
