Your time is now. It may not seem like it, but the only way you will find out is if you make it your time.
2017 might have been a crummy year where you lost your job, got your heart broken, lost your way, got bad grades, or maybe didn’t get the internship that you dreamed about.
Think about your own life for a second—what are some things that may not have gone the way you wanted them to go this past year? It sucked. You may have been hurt and it changed the way you lived for a while.
Now look at those examples in your life and think about them in a completely different way. A positive way. Yes, this may be hard for you, but those hard times can push you to work harder on your grades, push you to get more involved, push you into a whole new direction in your career.
These situations can put you into a whole new world that you never dreamed of—an even better world that you never imagined.
2018 will be my year. Yes, this is my new year’s resolution, and yes I know that new year’s resolutions are typically broken within the first month or even first two weeks. But I am here to tell ya: 2018 will be my year.
Do you want to know why?
Because my 2017 was a great year for me, although it did have some hard times. Those hard times pushed me to get to the place I am at right now. I felt that those times made me struggle, and I do think I was lazy in the way I was living my life. I wasn’t as positive as I would have liked to be, but it also made me learn what I should be doing differently.
I am starting 2018 with a clean slate. I am excited about this year because I went through huge situations in 2017 that made me grow up and realize what I need to be doing in order to make 2018 my year.
Now think again about those situations in your life that may have held you back from what you thought you wanted. What can you do in order to reach something better this year?
Learn from those things, work hard for what you truly want in life, think positively, and make 2018 your year.
