It's Been a Year

My dear beloved readers,

the time has come to wrap it up, to wrap up this year, twenty-thirteen, a year of hard-work-paid-off for me, and a year of just about the same for you, right? It is about the time to look back at your New Year resolutions, your goals for 2013 that were set a year ago, the annual journey you started on the 1st of January.

What I can say about my year is that I have learned a lot about myself and my ambitious mind, my determination, my drive, and my personal pursuit of happiness; and I made the one goal I had for this year come true: to make the previous year look like a joke. It is nothing but interesting, how we can all step it up even more every time we go for something, for I thought twenty-twelve was going to be it, the year in which I accomplished most, in which I worked most efficiently to make my dreams come true and live this life for a living. But one thing I realized during this year: that there is always more I can give. And I will give more next year, for I will move on, have more experience, know myself better, and ultimately know my life better.

I therefore am looking forward to a quiet and blessed Christmas and a nice little vacation to smooth out this year, twenty-thirteen, a year—indeed—in the palm of my hand, because one thing I know after this tremendous and wild year: I earned these days off.

To conclude this year, and this blog, I again want to thank you all for reading, for your feedback, and for sharing your personal thoughts on each post with me, because after all it is you whom I write it for, and it is you whom I want to encourage to bring meaning to this life, to live it to the fullest, to pursue your dreams, and to make your dreams come true at last.

I wish you all blessed holidays and nice and calm days to end this year, and I further want to encourage you to take any momentum, passion, any ambition, any dream and thought you had this year and drag it into twenty-fourteen and see, how you can make this new year a special and epic one.

See you all next year for the 2014 Elixir @ Momentum to Go Hard…and always bear in mind: “Be different, stand out, and work your butt off” (Reba McEntire).
