Fun memories and just fun to look back at the things that I have done this year. Check out your year and see if you have been doing the things you want to do and have been with the people you want to surround yourself with.
Every year, around the holiday season, everyone plans and sets goals for themselves to be a better version of themselves. To spend the next year growing and honing in on different goals/achievements. Often times trying to create new habits or living styles. Ultimately a great deal of these resolutions fail, because the discipline is not there, or maybe someone shot too far out. Making an unrealistic goal for themselves. If you never have exercised in your life do not say that your goal is to workout 7 days a week. That is unrealistic.

In thinking on the matter myself I thought of a couple of life points. Even though I am 24 I feel as though I have had a variety of experiences and I have matured quite a bit over the years so I have some worth-while advice. First, take everything that you view as a curve ball or a set back as a learning experience. Life slows down for no one and the punches do not get any softer with age. Respond. You can take a day or so to pout about certain events in life but then you need to get back up. You need to react. Take on struggles as learning experiences, take them on as way...

Look at where you have been, the mistakes, the growth, the opportuniteies, and judge where you would like to be going how do we know if we are going in the right direction? head off in a direction and once you get somewhere look back and ask yourself if you are where you should be going what happens if we get lost along the way? you have to get lost before you can be found what can we do to check ourselves along the journey? life isnt a sprint, it is a marathonand it is important to give yourself check points and landmarks where will our paths take us? exactly where we are supposed to...
