Allow yourself to be a beginner. Allow yourself to be imperfect, because all that striving to look like the person who’s five years deep in their dream is going to keep you stuck. Comparing yourself to someone who has already done the work, someone who has already grown past the beginner stage. You have to allow yourself to be terrible. Give yourself six months of starting and being terrible. Because if there’s one thing I know about 2025, it’s the year of action. It’s the year of saying enough is enough. It’s time to quit dreaming. It’s time to push through the fear of being seen, being heard, being a failure. Push through the discomfort. It’s okay to have 5 views on your first YouTube video. It’s okay to have only 2 sales from family and friends. The point is you’ve started and it’s only up from there. Let go of this idea of being a perfect beginner. You’ll stay wishing and dreaming year in year out with this mindset. Consistency and acceptance of imperfection is how you start and win in 2025.
btw when u get into reading you can read WHATEVER you want. You don't have to read classics, what your family/friends read, what's limited to your local library, don't have to read broad or loved genres. You can also stop reading a book whenever you want. If feel like your forcing yourself to read a book you hate and it's making you read less in general, stop reading that book.

I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year.

Acceptance is peace.
No amount of anxiety will change your future, no amount of regret will change your past.
Peace is found in acceptance:
• Accept imperfection.
• Accept uncertainty.
• Accept the uncontrollable.
You don't have to understand, tolerate or even forget something, but if you want peace, you must accept it.
If you spend your time chasing butterflies, they'll fly away. But if you spend your time making a beautiful garden, the butterflies will come to you.
When you focus on improving yourself, everything you want will come to you.
We attract based on who we are, not what we want.
Don't chase, attract.

I am such an Autumn person. Give me a quiet, cozy spot with a view of the changing trees on a crisp, late September day with a warm drink and a good book and I will be in all my glory.
Bookstores always remind me that there are good things in this world.

Feel into your want. Don't worry about how you are going to get your want, or what you should be doing— just feel deeply into your want.
Contrary to popular opinion, quitting is for winners.
Knowing when to quit, change direction, leave a toxic situation, demand more from life, give up on something that wasn't working and move on, is a very important skill that people who win at life all seem to have.
probably the best advice I've ever got was from my grandpa when I moved from my town and started a university, he told me to leave the house everytime when I start to feel down, just to go to the park, a supermarket, a bookstore, to even drive in a bus or tram, just be around other people because staying at home all the time kills you; and you know he was right
