I’ve been procrastinating this article. Summarising an entire year feels difficult. But I see the value in looking back. It makes moving forward clearer.
Looking forward is hard. The future is a fantasy. No one knows what’s happening tomorrow. But looking back is tangible. I like tangible. So here’s my look back at the past 12 months. Ups, downs and the honesty in-between.
This article is self-indulgent. If you want value, this isn’t for you. If you like stories and personal insights, read on. This article will cover:
- Quitting The Company
- Current Teaching Position
- New Teaching Position
- Writing Well and Creating Content
- Family, Friends and Fun
- Looking Forward with an Annual Plan
