If you have been reading my blog since the beginning, I want to thank you for sticking around. It has been great having this time off to figure things out in my life. This new year, I want to make sure to stick out around every week and connect with you more.
There will be more connection through the different social media apps, so make sure to follow! Also, I will be posting twice a week, so make sure to look it up in the notifications!
As the start of a new year, I want to reinforce my three main goals (or resolutions, but I dont really like that word) - not only for this new year - for the rest of my life. My three goals are:
1) To step outside of my comfort zone and explore new opportunities
2) To be good, to be useful, and to be grateful
3) To master the art of communication
I have talked about the first two in my blog various times, but not so much about the thrid one. The reason I want to make this a lifetime goal is because it is so important in every aspect of life.
Every aspect of life requires that you connect with the exterior world (unles you want to be a hermit, no argument there. Unless...well, you do have to connect with nature in a way to survive?). How many fights, misunderstandings, and what-not could we avoid, if we were just a little more attentive to our words and how we say them? How many ideas, innovations, and what-not could we implement, if we could simply persuade and talk to the general population in a manner that reaches them?
Good communication leads to good connection. I went to an act by the Blue Man Group one time (look up Blue Man Group, if you've never heard about them), and the thing that stuck with me the most was the first slide of their presentation which is the slide in this post. The magic word in this quote is: Connection.
When we communicate well, whether through words, art, research, music, you name it, we are able to form and create a bond that is difficult to break. This is the essense of life. Life's purpose is to connect. Connect to serve and enjoy. Connect to invent and explore. Connect to save lives and be happy. Connect to care and preserve.
If you want to connect, you need to communicate. So, I will be exploring this idea further in my blog and communicating it to you :) As such, feel free to also form a discussion with me and other people. Let's share our ideas.
Have a great weekend beautiful you!!! And remember:
Be strong, be unique, and step outside of your comfort zone!
