This year I feel it has been very long, and looking back when I wrote “Welcoming 2016” I have achieved a lot 🙂 As we embrace the new year, let’s also reflect on year that has gone by. Whether it’s good or bad, I believe everything happens for a reason. The year 2016 has been hard work, yet rewarding. For those who follow me in my journey, there’s been many highs and lows, but I’ve been able to come back even stronger!
Let’s share a quick summary of what I’ve been able to achieve this year shall we:
- Graduated with a upper second class degree
- Buy my very first car – VW Polo
- Keeping fit and resigning back to the gym
- Having the opportunity to work for 2 recognised companies: IPL & TrustFord
- Driving a company car, which for me felt joy haha
For me, these have been great accomplishments, and although this year hasn’t been AMAZING compared to the previous year, but there’s progress in my life. A point I didn’t mention above, which I shall I mention is understanding myself even further. Each year, my vision and my desire changes slightly because it’s called growing up but I am still focused on my true desire.
One point I still haven’t been able to achieve and that’s finding my love. To be honest the first six months of 2016 has been focusing on studying and I’m sure everyone about there understands that. BUT six months later what have I been doing? Well, one thing for sure and that I haven’t been slacking at being able to secure my career. Countless effort at applying for jobs and having interviews, and I’m fortunate to work for big companies and gaining that commercial awareness and knowledge!
Reflecting the year 2016, I feel there’s been more positives than negatives! What I want to draw out of this year is the importance at completing my studies, and entering the real world at finding a job. These last hours has been been depressing because there is somebody out there who I really like, but I feel maybe I’m trying too hard…love isn’t easy.
Next year for 2017 is when my life will seriously “take off” and I’m expecting many changes, which will be the real challenge 🙏😱 Life is a journey not a destination.
Farewell 2016 and what a challenge it’s been!
Happy new year x
