The year is slowly coming to an end. "What am I even saying?" ooh, okay, let me put it this way; the first quarter of the year has slowly ended. And I can't believe we are in the fourth month of the year already. Just like everyone, I also started the year by writing my goals down because they say goals, not written down, are mere plans; writing down gives you a clue as to what you want to achieve before the year runs out.
So far this year has been amazing, I started the year with my health being all sound and me bouncing like a baby girl "I'm grateful for that" One of the items on my bucket list is to be consistent on the hive platform, now you are wondering why hive came first "hmm" it came first because the question came from hive. The year started with me telling myself that I was gonna make a post every single day. In the early days, I've been fulfilling that goal, but then I didn't know time was gonna tamper with it.
Certain factors tampered with that goal of mine, and I found myself drawing back from making a post daily. Work became stressful, and I couldn't focus and keep track of my time; I told myself I wasn't gonna let work activities stress me out this year, but then some things were unpredictable and uncertain, and they forced their way into our lives. To beat that stress, focus on my hive journey, and keep my goal on point, I've decided to write out my work-related goals for the day, so I can't get caught in unnecessary stuff that would lead me to stress myself out and forget that I needed to make a post on the hive platform.
My personal goals: Another thing on my bucket list of personal goals is to travel outside of my comfort zone and experience other cultures, view the world from a different perspective because being in my comfort zone has made me a lot more comfortable with where I am currently but then I wanna change that aspect of my life, I wanna visit different places and learn from the world out there, knowing that the world doesn't revolve around me.
And I ticked that one of those parts on my bucket list; in the late part of February 2025, I got an offer to travel to Lagos. At that moment the only option in my head was "Yes I'm going" so I made up my mind and packed my luggage and traveled to Lagos, I wanted to gain a full experience so I traveled by road "I knew right" the distance "yeah I get" the whole experience was nice despite the distance being a factor that wasn't favorable because I sat inside the vehicle for about ten hours if not more. So I'm happy that I've been able to visit one of the places I've always had in mind to visit and there are more places to visit though "before the year runs out."
Another item on my bucket list is to prioritize myself and my health because what would I gain if I worked all hard and forgot about myself? "What would that make me?" This year, I intend to prioritize myself more and give myself whatever is needed if I have the funds. Currently, I'm not gonna lie; it's been all amazing, and I'm grateful that I get to provide these things for myself without looking for support from a third party, though someone always intervenes in that "smile."
