23 was quite a year so I wanted to share a few life lessons I learned this past year.
1. Most people are good.
2. You have to stand up for yourself.
3. You’re allowed to leave a job.
4. You can learn something in every situation.
5. Don’t buy expensive work clothes because the tiny humans will ruin them.
6. Set an alarm, and then another alarm, and then another alarm.
7. Pack lighter.
8. There’s no shame in moving back in with your family.
9. Never say no to a weekend trip.
10. You are allowed to buy something just because you want it sometimes.
11. Don’t turn down free dessert.
12. Good things can happen when you leave your comfort zone.
13. Cheap wine is the best wine.
14. Who cares if yoga pants aren’t in style, they’re comfy, wear them.
15. Sometimes doors close because a better door is going to open soon.
16. Snuggle with your pets every chance you get.
17. Cooking can be kind of fun.
18. Say yes to things that scare you (like dates)!
19. If you always shop at the same stores and don’t have a rewards card, you’re losing money.
20. Make time to read!
21. But also always have an audiobook downloaded.
22. Put away your laundry.
23. Coffee is good. I don’t know why it took me so long to realize it.
24. Making a to do list is no good if you lose it.
Things I hope to learn this coming year: making your bed takes 1 minute and makes for a great start to the day.
