Embracing the Journey
Posted by Literary-Titan
2024…Your Year of More is an inspirational and practical guide to help readers learn how to set goals and follow through with small, actionable steps. What inspired you to write this thought-provoking book?
I thrived academically in school and university because I firmly believe that knowledge is power. But honestly, I’ve always felt that formal education didn’t teach me enough about myself and the people around me. Don’t get me wrong – learning facts is great, but I always wanted to understand what makes people tick and what they’re feeling.
That’s why I wrote this book! It’s a conversation-style and insightful read that shares tips on how to make your life better. I think almost everyone can find it helpful and relatable!
What is a common misconception you feel people have about goal setting and achieving their goals without “luck”?
There are two important misconceptions. Firstly, everyone must work very hard and consistently prepare to achieve their desired outcomes. No one has it easy, so do not believe it when people make things look easy!
Secondly, life is not just about reaching a set of achievements. Life is a marathon filled with both successes and disappointments. Embracing the journey can help you achieve inner contentment and maturity.
What is one piece of advice you wish someone had given you when you were younger?
Don’t wait for anyone to open a door for you. Learn the necessary skills and techniques to create your own success.
What is one thing you hope readers take away from your book?
I hope a reader finds a more joyful and energized perspective when they think about their life.
