Bismillah.
With 2014 looming around the corner, I decided to reflect upon the year of 2013 and what I’ve learned. Turning 22 years old next year on 2014 was a big one for me, and with it came a lot of personal growth and learning experiences. I would like to share them dengan anda semua. It allows me to pause and note any changes, progress, setbacks, and lessons i’ve experienced so far.
So here it goes — 20 things I learned the year of 2013:
1. That learning to fully love myself doesn’t equate to selfish or arrogant. It means being patient with myself, being kind to myself, and embracing self-compassion.
2. That traveling is the best. I’ve always traveled every year dalam & luar negara. 2013 was the year I traveled for me. I went with family, friends, Herbalife Team and alone. I drove two hours to places, 7 hours to some, and flew 3 hours to others. I stayed within the Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand& Singapore( HERBALIFE TRAININGS purpose). Traveling expands my mind with each new experience, and fills my life with memories and beautiful moments. With each new place I see, the world seems to get bigger.
3. I learned more about what my interests are, without judgments. I let myself be, enjoy, see, hear, taste, smell, and feel without worry of what others might think or say.
4. That being alone is more than fine. And by alone, I mean not only in the ‘single’ sense, but alone in having no other humans around. This one took a bit, but I finally find solace in moments I can just be alone. I look forward to them. Masa untuk menrefleksi diri.
5. People aren’t always who you think they are. And that’s okay.
6. How to let go. This was a big year in learning that I can only control what I say, do, feel, or think. I cannot control anything anyone else does.
7. Friendships are important. And maintaining them is not a difficult task. It takes one minute to reach out in a letter, a call, or a quick message to let someone know I am missing them.
8. That family will always be there and can often surprise you by how much so. I continue to appreciate more and more the support and love that I get from mine.
9. There’s no limit to what we can do as people. I have learned that hard work, perseverance, and optimism help me find what I seek.
10. Intuition is a powerful thing. Listen.
11. That I am accountable for all of my past, present, and future mistakes. Blaming others will only stunt my own growth.
12. I’ve learned that some people will amaze you. Some people will disappoint you. Some people will shatter you. Some people will appreciate you. Some people will inspire you. Some people will love you. Some people will dislike you. And they can be complete strangers. Or they can be people you love or know very well.
13. Even if people break your heart, it doesn’t mean you should stop searching for the one who won’t.
14. Eating right and exercising actually begins.
15. That being in the moment allows you to fully understand what it means to live. Moments that I allowed myself to be fully present are the ones that are most vivid in my memory.
16. That we can get a lot done in a day. Even in an hour. So get up, get out and go.WORK! WORK! WORK!
17. To stop second-guessing myself. To make a decision and walk away and trust that I made the right one.
18. That there’s a perfect balance between being prepared and being spontaneous. I basically belajar utk overprepare and plan so that all is covered and then go with the flow. I plan so I can relax.
19. Do what works for you, what speaks to you, what comforts you, what inspires you, what amazes you, what amuses you, what lights you, what guides you. And do it completely without any judgments, worries, or self-doubts.
"Take big bold steps, take baby steps — do whatever works for you to begin to turn these into positives in your life. Do this, and you will soar! Your greatness is waiting to be released."
Semoga 2014 menjadi permulaan yang Terbaik untuk kita semua. Amin
