Before We Get Excited And Say Goodbye To 2022 Let’s Have A Quick Review

As you know by now, I like to reflect on the previous month…

…and now I have an entire year to look back on. I feel that doing this gives me perspective, what I’ve done well, what I need to work on, what I want and even more importantly, what I no longer want and let me tell you, there was a lot of that this past year.

Every article I came across over the past few weeks is about goal-setting and/or self-reflection. I greedily bookmarked all of those articles, knowing I wanted to do both as I welcome in 2023. I even set up a new folder called Goals & Self Reflection and felt excited to be able to go back to all of those articles.

Now that time has come and quite frankly, by the time I have read the 50+ articles, it will be the end of 2023! So I decided, that for the self-reflection part at least, I would do it my own way, as I have been each month.

So let’s take a look at what I have learned this year.

  • I took time out sick from work, which made me realise I was not doing what I loved, so I quit my 9–5 and started a freelance writing business. I now have regular work with a company and hope to take on a lot more work in the new year
  • I worked hard on my blog page and started a newsletter, but also learnt about setting boundaries with that, I didn’t need to post every single day or keep my focus on one particular platform…
