2026

It’s 2026?

It’s weird that the older i’ve gotten, that time flies by that much quicker. This year i’m starting out on a slow pace. Choosing the people I keep close wisely, where I spend my time more intentionally, and working projects and places that I enjoy.

Reflecting back on 2025, I was a bit more optimistic that I found my place. I found a ‘great job’ on paper. I figured I was set for a bit of time but boy oh boy, that took a hard right turn fast. And when it did I had the support of people who understood where I was coming from, along with the people who told me this is just the way it is…

I just cant accept that people have to be miserable in their day to day work. Spending every day like this? Why? What is the outcome or purpose of living in misery every day? When I realized that’s where I decided to commit my time 40 Hrs a week, I chose this environment where people come to work dreading it, and knowing the way there going to be treated. I realized I needed to get out. Its shocking that this environment exists so many places. I had so many big questions about what I want my life to look like, and the people I want to include in it moving forward.

Towards the end of year, I took time to reflect, declutter our environment and people, and have been catching back up on sleep. Because why is it that corporate life also takes your soul, sleep and dreams over?

In 2026 i’m focusing on Rest. All seven kinds of rest. Physical, mental, emotional, social, sensory, creative, and spiritual rest. Taking weekly no screen days, and practicing being bored again. I want to keep my circle small and close, as the year goes. Spending all my main time outside, and working on projects that feel like they spark creativity, change and bring good and positive into the world.

I have this weird feeling that this year is going to be a big year for a lot of people in my life. I don’t know why or what or how to explain it, but I just feel like it’s going to be a gooder'. I feel like it’s the year to quietly show up for yourself, and shock everyone, it’s the time to focus on your mental and switch things up if they’re not longer serving you. It’s time to chose yourself. I just have a good feeling.

What ever goals you set for yourself this year, what ever you want to accomplish, I really hope your working towards it to be that person for future self.
Happy New Year.
