Time flies.
This time last year I was broke, miserable, and was recovering from constant daily anxiety. I woke up to my birthday feeling unhappy about my situation. I was 23, didn't finish college yet, and all the above factors I mentioned. Everything was straight up miserable.
A year later, I woke up on my birthday feeling happy- the first time in years that I felt this way.
Throughout 23, I started going out from my comfort zone. I started socializing a bit more, opening myself up to more opportunities, being more confident about my skills and venturing on a crazy journey, building a business.
Who would have thought that I am closed to one of my dreams!
I wanted to have a cafe, a bakery, also a b2b service. Now, I am one more step closer to my own bakery. I started bootstrapping late last month and now I got 2 customers already. I know it's small but it's something 😄
I also made new acquaintances and friends this year from a mutual interest, nootropics. I finally had the courage to meet different kinds of crowd. I also finally had the courage letting go the toxic people in my life.
I finally had the courage to say no to toxic friends, family, and things that waste my time.
I also learned to take life a bit less seriously too.I choose to focus on myself, seek adventure, and enjoy this ride called life.
I also don't care what people say about me, my background, or family anymore. I simply put up a huge I don't give a fuck sign. It's my life and I get to spend how I want it to be.
Throughout 23, I also learned to take more responsibility of my actions instead of running away from my problems. Now, I have less problem and less worry.
And finally, I would like to thank my hive family.
It's almost my 4th year here and I really would love to say thank you for everyone who has been supporting me. I joined when I was recently turning 20 and since then, I never look back to my job my main job as a tutor and translator. I went freelancing full time and remote working, it was the best decision I made. Back then, I was doing 70% freelancing and 30% hive but since I joined @ocd team, my life is 80% hive and 20% freelancing. Perhaps I don't say this enough but I am always grateful to be part of the team since 2017. So thank you everyone, hive and @ocd team.
And now, my final wish and hope; I hope throughout this 24, I can expand my business and finally finish my first pc master race build 😂 so I can start streaming.
