My improved journey

Waking up every single day gives me thousands of reasons why I should be grateful, being grateful for both the good and the bad times of life.

The most important thing I'm always grateful for in 2024 is "Life". Though I have other things I'm always grateful about, but I see life as an anchor that holds all others. Having LIFE gives me an assurance that everyday is a blessing and it's always a new beginning and a new opportunity to maximize for a positive impact and change. It's often said that "when there is life, there is hope". Hence, having life is a second chance for me which builds hope in me. Another reason why life is an anchor for me is because many started the journey with me in 2024, but couldn't make it till date, but God has been merciful to me, giving life and good health both for myself, friends as well as family. That's enough reason for me to be grateful.

I often say that everything we are faced with comes to us as a lesson, not for us to grumble or remain in the same position, but it comes to spurred us up so as to move forward and become better. 2024 has taught me so many things as far as life is concerned because in life we get to learn everyday either the hard way or the easy way which ever way we so desire. We might say that 2024 was tough and rough, but out of that toughness and roughness lies a sweet and a smooth landing, only if we see the other side of it.

This year has taught me so many things and I can boldly say that this year I've learnt is more than the previous years, although I learnt in the previous years but this year I got a better understanding of many things about life, starting from patience, perseverance, taking responsibilities, self-control, empathy, commitment etc. and I'm grateful that I get to experience those things to become better.

The key things I have really learnt is perseverance, and patience which has become a vital key in my life's journey, I came to the understanding that patience and perseverance are essential qualities for achieving success and overcoming challenges in life and it has really worked out, though it was always painful but enduring to the ends brought excitement. Though patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet, it's also the companion of wisdom, fostering empathy and deeper connections and understanding about so many things. Patience has helped me to be mindful about things of impact yielding self-control, which helped in managing my emotions and other life factors.

Another is perseverance, though it's not a long race; rather a short race one, I may fail many times, but it's in my place to persevere and stand up from that point rather than looking for faults and who to blame, bouncing back from failures and using them as opportunities for growth is often a way out and that has been my experience in 2024.

Determination and commitment, I've learnt that being determined is not enough in achieving a goal , rather determination must be accompanied with commitment for success to manifest, staying committed to a goal and finding ways to overcome challenges is a powerful tool to growth. Though I'm still found wanted in this aspect of commitment, but I've got to learn so much from it in this race.

I can't exhaust these lessons, but there are more which would have been discussed, but I choose to stop, though every lesson comes with unforgettable memories, both pleasant and unpleasant, but the exciting factor is that I've got to learn from them and I've become a better version of myself compared to previous years, although I'm still in the learning process, I've not graduated.
Thus I'm grateful for every second chance life gives me, the good and bad ones memories I'm also grateful about them because it comes for my betterment.

Thank you for reading to the end.
I still remain @pricelessudy.
