At the end of last year I made my goal for 2018 to “Be Extraordinary”. I was looking back recently, and as I usually do, I over analyzed. I thought and thought and then thought some more...was I extraordinary? I don’t feel like I made the year as a whole EXTRAORDINARY.
Then I broke my year down and really thought about what I did this year. -I had weight loss surgery, and since then I’ve lost over 100lbs! -I turned 25 -I flew across the country on my own and back again. -I did Campout, Universal, and Disneyland all within two weeks. -I’ve made so many new connections, all of which I love! -I started a new job -I began volunteering at Edison elementary. -I flew to Georgia on a whim and got Zumba Kid certified! -I’ve finished my last class before student teaching. The negative Nancy that lives in my head is telling me that’s not enough. That’s all I did? What did that accomplish? Well, I’d say that’s the most extraordinary I’ve ever lived. I lost ONE HUNDRED POUNDS. I flew on not one, but FOUR different planes. I saw the ocean! I danced with Tigger! I completely stepped out of my comfort zone with doing Zumba! In fact, everything I listed above is completely out of my comfort zone! I’m just realizing this as I’m writing. This whole year was WAY out of my comfort zone! That’s huge stuff because my anxiety is no joke! This year may not have panned out like I thought, but I did live this year extraordinarily! So what will my goal be for 2019? Be fierce! I want to be the strongest, bravest, fearless version of myself yet! I want to believe in myself more than I ever have. I want to make a difference, be the change, and I want God to use the passion He has placed in my heart to be fiercely successful and reach my goals! I want every part of me to be fierce! Whatever comes my way I want to tackle it. I don’t want to forget, even for a minute, that I am a daughter of the one true King and nobody can take my crown! I am the best version of myself I have ever been! If there was ever a time that I could reach this level of fierceness and be an even better me, a more confident, unstoppable me, it’d be this year approaching! The limit does not exist for the possibilities of 2019! Because I am His, I am fierce. And because I am Fierce, I will change the world! Or at least, my world. Be fierce with me this new year! Much love and God bless, -X
