A new year feels like stepping onto a fresh stage—a chance to set the tone for what’s to come. For me, 2025 is more than just another year; it’s an opportunity to build on my goals and dreams while staying grounded in what truly matters.
As someone who juggles a few activities —a student, a singer, web developer , and an entrepreneur—I’ve realized that starting the year with intention makes all the difference. So, how am I kicking off 2025? Let me share my plan.
Mapping the Year
One activity I never skip at the start of the year is creating a vision board. It’s not just a random collection of pictures; it’s a visual representation of what I want to achieve.
This year, my vision board is all about balance and growth. I’ve included:
Academic goals (because university life keeps me busy).
Creative dreams for my singing journey and my YouTube channel, TrailerVerse.
Business milestones for Apex Web Studio, my website-building venture.
Personal growth goals, like staying consistent and making more time for family and friends.
If you’ve never tried making a vision board, I highly recommend it. It’s like taking all those swirling thoughts in your head and giving them a home—a place where they feel real and achievable. I wrote a blog about creating the perfect vision board for 2025 , packed with tips that have worked for me.
This year, I want to keep things simple but meaningful. Here’s some of my plans for the first month of the year:
Reflection Time: I’ll spend the morning journaling, looking back at the highs and lows of 2024. Writing helps me process everything and start the new year with clarity. I wrote about this here . You can also check it out.
Singing Session: Music has always been my escape and my joy. So, I plan to carve out time to sing—just for me.
YouTube Content Planning: I want to start the year with fresh ideas for my channel. This means brainstorming new content and reviewing what worked well last year.
I know not everyone will approach the new year the same way. Some of you might want to hit the ground running, while others prefer a slower, more reflective start. Either way, the question is:
What do I do to make this year special?
