Reflections, Regrets and Resolutions

Over the past couple of months, I have been doing a lot of reflecting, regretting and resolving

On reflecting

2019 started with a drag. I no longer felt that thrill for work that ended my 2019 and I started to feel inadequate all over again. God must have seen this as an opportunity to teach me some valuable lessons which he did and even gave me some form of validation through the job offers I received.

I am more aware of the existence of a relationship with God and I am willing to nurture it and see where it leads.

On regretting

I had a lot of ideas for Ibadan. I wanted to build a brand around getting young people together and executing some exciting events. I dealt with a lot of self doubt and feeling of inadequacy and eventually gave up. When my time in the city was coming to an end, my failed dreams came haunting .

On resolving

I am doing things afraid now, I don’t care if I suck. I am making plans and sticking to them. I am more consistent and more confident in myself more.

In the spirit of resolutions, I am committing to;

  • Write something everyday (could be a blog/LinkedIn post, a twitter thread, an Instagram caption)
  • No Soda

If you care about me enough to want to keep me accountable, here is how you can help:

  • Do not offer me soda
  • Ask to read what I have written for the day and share ideas on topics I can write about.
  • React to my writings and give feedback in form of encouragement and/or constructive criticism.
  • Join me

Looking forward to #30dayswriting and #30daysnosoda.
