Dear readers, how time flies and I know it sounds like a cliche: but we are about to close this year and welcome another brand new year!
Around this time every year, I like to review and muse about the year which is about to close.
Definitely, on the work front, if I were to share, there would be many interesting things that I can share with you readers. But what I will share is just this: every work assignment and interaction especially the tough ones will continue to shape me for the better.
And I will just leave the above as it is for work. I mean even though I agree that work is important for many of us as many of us are full time employees, our lives are much more than just work.
And this is why I prefer to review and muse about the year in terms of what I do and how I have grown outside of work.
Again, after musing, all will return to the most important values which I hold the dearest: in gist, Health and Values.
First … Health.
For this year, I and my wife have our own fair share of health scares. Luckily, we are okay. I will always like to add that my health is okay for now. “For now” as given the current environment, there is a higher chance of our cells to change with the food, stress, lack of sleep and exercise and spending too much time on our mobile phones. I intend to focus on body check ups going forward and you should do too!
And second … Values
At the work front, I see, hear and experience things that I know are not aligned to my Values.
Not just not aligned to my values, what I see, hear and experience are often not aligned to the flow of universe. I always stick to my values and never compromise on these. And definitely, my steadfastness to Values will not please those whose values are not aligned to mine and I also leave it as that.
I have the good opportunity to also have a well deserved overseas trip with my family and this is something that I appreciate this year.
I am Grateful for what I have and will always strive to be a better version of myself and contribute more to the community. I like to add that a year is just a common chapter which people mark the pages of our lives. We can always do our little stock takes daily. We can even take little breaks and make today better than yesterday. This way, we continue to Learn Grow. Learning and Growing is what makes lives meaningful.
