Showing up - 2026

For the last five years every year i would sit down and write a list of goals and resolutions that i would like to achieve , and then nothing truly ever change ... This realization hits me every last week of the year end , and its demotivating.... So this year end asusal when i started writing list of goals i want to achieve , i imagined myself and took myself at the end of the year 2026 , where i will be going through that same realization again where nothing got changed sure i might have achieved some of these goals i have written, but u know what every time i achieve any goal the high of that lasts only for next 48hrs and then my mind starts thinking what next .... so now i have decided its best to NOT TO WAIT TO LIVE if I achieve something ..but rather spend every day ( or 80% of my days at least ) doing something that makes me feel ALIVE.

for me that would be talking to my loved ones and spending few minutes in nature everyday .. Additionally its also helpful to think strategically about what would I want my life to look like and not just what looks good on paper

At the end of the year i should see version of myself that's truly changed in terms of
how do i work now ?
Am I happy with whatever role I m currently in?
whatever decisions i make in life are they now easy to make?
what i stopped tolerating - at work and definitely outside work
how I protected my energy and attention
how I showed up in relationships
what I am quietly proud of that i started or stayed consistent on it

Hopefully at the year end i see a better version of myself, and i have lived most of my days that made me feel alive...
