The new year is a time to set focus for the year ahead. Immaterial of historical evidence of ones ability to keep or achieve goals, all of us set new year resolutions. It is the time of the year that we all look ahead and set big lofty goals and resolute to get rid of all our bad habits.
As a freelancer who is looking forward to a full new year for the first time, it is also time for me to set goals as where I would want to be at the end of the year. It is also the first time where I am technically in full control of my destiny.
If I were in employment, I would not be able to set a goal for my income or the type of projects that I want to work on. Those will be in more decisions of the management that i would have reported. But as a freelancer I have a better chance and control of where I want to be by the end of the year.
I am still working on financial and growth targets. But loosely, I have decided on a larger goal or an intention for the year. When I started out freelancing one of the things I wanted to do was to spend some time working on some of the personal projects that interested me. So this year, I want to “just do them”. Not bother of success or failure, but work on all those game changing ideas that I have. Not to over analyze and get bogged down in analysis paralysis.
So I welcome the new year with a new motto- “Just Do It”, be what may be!
