I originally wanted to write a bit about last year and somehow I am procrastinating. I am good at that. But that is one thing I want to get better at, well not better at but let’s say don’t push things too far away from me. It was such an eventful year both personally and professionally , influenced by the political climate specially here in the US but also all over the world. I am still digesting several events and until then I thought I just write about something else, which affects me right now. ( I guess that is still procrastinating …)

So many people have new years resolutions, goals for the new year, big mountains to concur! And then you have the other side, people that are absolutely against it because they think you should set your goals all year long, adjust as we go and just move on to the next. And as much as I like setting goals all year long, adjusting and moving forward ; there is something about a new year that seems fresh, new, unused and screams for new beginnings.

I also have to say it is fun if you write them down and bring it out the next year and read them out loud. Even more fun doing it with a bunch of the same people …
