It Isn’t Over Yet

By Jasmine Kelly

I don’t know about you, but 2019 was a very dynamic year for me. I started a new job in January and realized that it was okay to change my mind about a lot of things that I use to be very fixed on. This year is not over (despite what social media may say) so anything that you may not have done and want to do, there is still time.

Peer pressure for the new year can be very tough. I understand completely if you feel like you have not accomplished anything so far in 2019. I also want to let you know that those thoughts are not true. You are still here, you are still trying and you are manifesting. Yes, manifesting. I won’t lie to you. I believe that nothing will work unless you do. However, good intentions for your life have to start somewhere and that’s your mind, your imagination. I do believe that it is important to visualize the direction in which you want to go in life. How else will you know where you want to be?

Don’t daydream too long though. It is time to put your hopes, dreams and plans into action. There is still time! If you want to start a business, begin planning. If you want to mend a broken relationship (one that isn’t toxic) jot down what you want to say. Just start!
