WHAT 2014 TAUGHT ME: SELF DEVELOPMENT, RELATIONSHIPS, HAPPINESS AND CAREER

Greetings everyone!

It’s almost 2015 and we are going to be leaving another year behind. Instead of talking about the future goals and resolutions, I decided to talk about what I actually learnt this year. 

Self Development:

1) Forgive and Forget: Forgiving and forgetting is such an important part of life, which was something I wasn’t able to accomplish so easily. I think the year of 2014 has really made me achieve this. Sometimes the best way to forget something and get over it is by forgiving.

2) Finally Starting My Blog: For the past four years I have read blogs and followed them. Even though I wanted to start one a long time ago, I just never got around to it. 2014 was the year I started my blog and finally wrote about whatever I wanted to. The year will always be special because of that!

3) Let Go: Whether its material things(clearing my closet and not over shopping) or emotionally, it was a year of letting go of many things that now makes my life so much easier.


Relationships:

1) Open your heart, Open your eyes: Sometimes we get so busy and we dwell on our old relationships, that we forget to see and open our heart to the better people and better relationships that can make us happier whether its love, family or friendship. Luckily, I was able to do that this year.

2) Take A Risk If You Love It: It can be scary to embark in a particular relationship for various reasons, but if you think its worth it and the positive outweighs the negative, my best advice is to just go ahead and do it!

3) See What Makes You A Better Person: The people in your life really affect the negative and positive in your life. When it comes to relationships, I decided to be with the people who made me a better and more positive person.

Happiness:

1) Stop And Smell The Roses: Seriously, this is probably one of the most important things I have learned and still try to do everyday. All the planning and running around didn’t give me a chance to stop and see the things in life that really mattered and would probably regret not doing or seeing in the future. Stopping and just living is so essential and I can’t stress that enough. We have one life, lets make it the best life.

2) Cancel The Negative: During this time of my life which includes college, work and finding myself, I tend to see the negative over the positive. However, this past year and something I want to do in the future is cancel the negative thoughts and people and see the positive which has made me happier.

3) Travel And Discover: This year, I had so much fun with travelling. Dubai, New York, Boston, India, Las Vegas and Indiana Dunes were the places I went to and they were all amazing. Traveling is such an important part of my life and it really opens up my mind and through it, I experience things I have never experienced before.

Career:

1) Do What Makes You Happy: When it comes to a job, trying to find what you love to do is the most important. Luckily, this year I have be able to do that when it comes to work and my career. Whether it’s working part time on my blog or finishing off classes with good grades and have another quarter to graduate!

2) Prioritize and Balance: Balancing out life can be hard, but this year I have been able to concentrate on what my priorities are. I have been able to accomplish my priorities but also enjoy life to the fullest.



This year has been filled with ups and downs but overall 2014 has been one of the best years. I am so excited to see what the future holds! I wish all of you a Happy New Year!!
Life is too short and I am thankful for where it has brought me today.



I love you all! I can’t wait to blog more and experience more!



Thank you for reading!
