Although this post might seem like a strong “You know, you should really…” it actually isn’t.It’s not a ‘should’ but an invitation to slow down for an hour or so and reflect on how you’d like your 2024 to be. Or, rather, how you would like to show up this year. Just the past five years, I’ve moved countries probably more than five times, changed my career completely and switched jobs four times, navigated a relationship and a breakup, and managed to do whatever else I was doing.As a political commentator, I’ve followed, written about, and got my heart broken over a number of issues.So I am not here to say “just plan your year and follow through”.I’m here to say that no matter how any year goes, with its endless unknowns, we still get to choose our intentions. And even if we don’t follow through on something, I’m still choosing to consciously decide what those (albeit potentially failed) projects will be.Most importantly, I’m choosing how I MYSELF want to show up, what qualities to bring, what to learn, and what – the hardest part for me – not to repeat.The rest? The rest is in my episode. I hope you take the time to listen to it and, more importantly, I hope you take that time for yourself. Happy 2024, Justina
