It is a chilly winter morning in Delhi today with sunshine playing a peek-a-boo from behind the clouds. While I am busy enjoying Mother Nature caressing all my plants and talking to the huge mango tree in front of my house, I wonder how brilliantly the tree has fulfilled its goals in the last more than 50 years braving all odds and still giving us the yummiest of mangoes every year. It has a purpose in life and it is still fulfilling it and standing tall and strong. Our goals can precisely do this for us, they are magical, and they give us a purpose in life. They give us a reason to get up every day and keep working towards achieving them.
So yes it’s a wrap for 2024 and here I sit setting my personal and creative goals for 2025. Since I primarily identify as a writer, how about going with the creative goals first.
1. Bring out the Hard Copy Versions of my 8 published books so far: Out of my 8 books on Amazon KDP, only 3 are available in print and I feel it is high time to bring out the print versions of all the others too though I am still divided if I must integrate them into one or make them into a box set. I started working on this project last year but will ensure the results are visible this year. I would now like to hold all of them in my hand and revisit my works in the last 8 years. I have been guilty of not promoting them, I want to give all of them a fresh chance again.
2. Launching Brave Inked Emotions Vol2 with a grander deeper purpose: The launch of a very valuable emotional wellness resource, Brave Inked Emotions Vol1 was a very satisfying venture I undertook in 2024 and I will like to bring out a grander every more worthy version of it through putting together BIE Vol2 in 2025. The blueprint is ready and I will make the final, announcements as the dates approach. I wish to let it keep serving both its purposes to perfection, to be an emotional wellness handbook for someone in need and be a Launchpad for budding writers to become authors and see their works in print.
3. Working on the manuscript of my New Novel at length: There is a story which sits in my heart for years, may be its time for me to start working on the first draft this year with a strong discipline and dedicated hours. I now know I am at a point where it is going to be now or never for me because I have some other very significant priorities and I must get into my best balancing act.
Personal goals too are going to be very significant for me this year. Life is short and we must make every moment of it worthwhile. I have great hopes from myself in the year 2025 on personal front and may Baba give me the strength to fulfil them to the best of my abilities.
1. I intend to get disease-free and medicine-free in 2025: For as many years as I can remember I have lived my life between two episodes of acute endometriosis pain which has made me put on pedestal many significant aspirations of my life but this year I wish to break free with the power of prayers and manifestations. I know it is easier said than done but I will try with all my might and I trust I will succeed.
2. Getting back on my earlier fitness and stamina levels: For my own sake I wish to get back to my weight and stamina levels of the post pandemic days. It is extremely vital for me. I am no more smitten by loosing weight abruptly just to look good and rather want to be perfectly healthy and fit and energetic no matter how much is my weight.
My Lord, I hope you are listening to me, please help me align my energies to keep moving in the right direction.
3. Keep living my dream of travelling the world and covering all continents: My jobs in Ikea of Sweden and Honda Cars made me travel the world and I get so overjoyed and overwhelmed in a new country that now I wish to cover the remaining countries of the world and absorb the cultures and soak in the beauty of the world. Travel charges my batteries and I become a new me. Travel remains my most exciting personal goal for 2025 too and my bucket list is more than ready.
Have you set your goals for 2025??
