Failure during Thanksgiving


Happy Monday everyone,

I hope everyone had an amazing holiday! There are so many things that I am thankful for this year especially. For all the great, good, and bad, and the terrible fuck-up's I continue to make. If not for all these experiences I would not be who I am.

This year I have learned a lot about myself and what I truly love doing and have made strives in pursing what makes ME happy. I have experienced so many high's and low's, I am thankful for the people that have been there for me! My friends that have become family this year and have given me so much support!

With that being said, I have accomplished more than I could have ever imagined I could with writing, yet, I still fell short of my own personal goal. I had set a personal goal to have my manuscript done by Thanksgiving. I failed at making that deadline, I keep beating myself up for not meeting my own goal. Yes life happens and things get pretty crazy, but, I should've stayed focused and been more disciplined.

So I have set my new goal to be done by Christmas, giving myself another month so I should be able to get everything done! I am nervous and excited. I will have my book published this coming year and have many more goals to accomplish! Although I feel terrible for not meeting my own deadline, I will set a new goal and certainly make them!

Thank you for reading and your continued support!

Stay tuned for more to come! :)

I’m an hour away from this book release. I’m freaking out and all I keep saying is... “You are breathing with purpose” #poetry #bookrelease #love #poem
