New year, new me.
If you’ve read my previous post, you might know me as an achiever and an action-driven person. Nevertheless, my life is constantly changing. Some
transitions are obvious and require a good preparation, whereas others just
occur naturally and force us to adapt.
That’s what happened to me in the beginning of this year when our baby girl
turned one and started to walk. You wouldn’t believe that such a little person
would bring so many changes, but yes, it was the case.
The changes started with looking for an adequate babysitting “mode”, changing
our work schedule accordingly, and eventually it affected our family daily
routine and weekend planning.
But, to me, the biggest change happened inside when I decided to let go of my
crazily neat daily planning. Again, I learned that things do not always happen
the way we want them to. And it’s okay, it’s not the end of the world. Instead,
it’s an opportunity for new adventures and growth!
So, this year, the confident new me has decided to relax, invest in those
important relationships, let go of what does not lead me to my dreams, and
achieve great things in the process!
As I am ending, can I just reassure you that family and kids are a blessing from
God? Although it sometimes sounds like they are a cataclysm that would bring
huge changes in your life at every stage, I believe that the gift is in the fact that
you will never be the same again. And I would not trade that for anything.
