As of Sunday, I am officially 26 and unlike many people who begin the journey into the late twenties, I have no anxiety about it. I think that’s the case for several reason, the first being that I’ve already accomplished a lot in my first 25 years. Secondly, because I have a lot more to accomplish in the next 25 years and I don’t have time to waste on the extra stress.
“Do not count the candles but notice the light they give. Do not count the years; look at the life you live”.
In the spirit of my birthday, I have created a list of 26 things I would like to accomplish in the next year to ensure that I live it to the fullest.
Here starts many accomplishments to make the best year yet!
