End of Year Blues

Recently, I’ve been in a funk!

I realized it started when I was thinking about my future plans, the possibility of them overwhelmed me and got me into a do-nothing funk! (Can anyone relate?).

When I get like this, it means I’ve forgotten the wonderful things that have happened and I’m focusing on my fears. Forgetting that in 2023, my 2024 goals seemed highly impossible!

If God did it before, he can surely do it again!

So, are you like me, somewhat discouraged by the end of the year or the start of a new one? I challenge you to actually pause right now and write down 12 wonderful things that have happened to you this year (one for each month of the year).

You see, it wasn’t so bad! So, what if everything you wanted didn’t happen for you? Truth is you’re breathing and even in the disappointments, God will work everything out for good for you!

You’re alive, so he still has a plan for you. Just trust him!

Now that you’re hopefully feeling a little better, I want you to set goals for 2025. SMART (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Time based) goals! Be honest with yourself. Set your goals for yourself, not what someone else expects of you.

If you need help with setting your goals, check out my value-based planner here.

You can also check out this video I did a while ago explaining how to set goals.

Remember, the only reason you may remain in the same position is if you don’t do anything about it. Do your part (The prayer and the planning) and leave it all in the hands of the safest driver- Jesus Christ.

I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and New Year!

Love,

Akhere
