Mid-Year NYE

Blog, , , , ,

The 4th of July celebration feels for me like a mid-year NYE. Technically we reach the first half of the year and celebrate with fireworks. The first half of this year has been very exciting and busy, so much it feels like a full year just passed. The second half of the year looks busy already but moreover it is going to be full of changes, challenges, new routines to get used to, new vocabulary to master, and agendas to put together as one.

With the new school year upon us we have to combine several agendas: university, school, homeschooling, and work. I get asked a lot how do I do so many things and still have time to share with family and friends. I don’t have a straight answer for that but I believe it is about having your priorities in order. Whatever is more important to you will always take the most important part of your agenda and everything else will find a place or not.

The Mid-Year NYE is also a good opportunity to assess the goals set at the beginning of the year. Small victories are victories too. Even more, those small victories help increase self-efficacy and engagement to continue trying and working hard to finish the year strong. Not only that but it gives a chance to re-evaluate and change goals if necessary. Exploring new possibilities is a good thing sometimes. It is possible that we need to pursue different goals before going back and continue others.
