Remember in December: Lessons from the Final quarter of 2022

This month, I am reflecting on the lessons I learned during each quarter of 2022. During the fourth quarter of 2022, I quit a job, started a new one, made more edits to my novel, got Covid, and, for the first time since this blog’s inception, I failed to post on a Friday.

 

I think the main take away from this quarter has been for me to take care of myself and give myself grace. I hope that all of us can take that lesson into the new year.

What was the most important thing you’ve learned in 2022? Leave me a comment and let me know.

Remember in December: Lessons From Quarter Three of 2022

Throughout this month, I am reflecting on what I learned in 2022, quarter by quarter. In the third quarter in 2022, I took time off to visit a friend, planned my first fundraising event, and added a few more chapters to my novel.


in that quarter, I learned that it is important to take things at the pace that they need to happen. In planning the event, I did what needed to be done at the time that it needed to be done. I hadn’t been aware that more chapters needed to go into my novel until they needed to happen. And in terms of taking time off to visit a friend, it was important to take the vacation time when it arose and fully utilize the opportunity when it presented itself.

 

When have you done things in the time that they needed to happen? Have you made the decision to stop accusing yourself of laziness or poor planning and taking life as it has come? What have been the results? I’d love to know, so feel free to leave me a comment.

Remember in December: Lessons from Quarter 2 of 2022

This month, I am reflecting on lessons I learned throughout each of the quarters in 2022. In the second quarter, I was offered a new job, worked a lot (sometimes three jobs at once), and started writing my novel again.

 

I think the biggest take away is that no matter how busy you are, make time for things that are fun. If I hadn’t been working on my novel during that time, I don’t know that I would have been able to accomplish all of the things I wanted to accomplish. It was a wonderful, creative outlet, and I am excited to be , working on it again. (I originally started it when I was in college, and have written several iterations since then; now I feel like it is finally coming together.)

 

What creative hobbies sustain you during times of busyness and stress? Leave me a comment and let me know.

Remember in December: Lessons from the First Quarter of 2022

As the year comes to a close, I will reflect on what I have learned in each quarter. During quarter one of 2022, I went on a work trip for two weeks with my coworkers, lead a focus group for the first time, Did a lot of reading and meditation, and landed some unexpected clients in my business.

 

I think the most valuable lesson I learned in that quarter was to keep discovering more about myself. I found it helpful to sit in the quiet and reflect on who I am as a person.

 

What did you do in the first quarter of 2022? I’d love to hear how it went and what you learned.
