🎊 As we approach the end of another year, as professionals, learners, and citizens of the world; we must look back at what we have accomplished in 2025 and what we hope to accomplish in 2026.

📖 By the time 2026 rolls around, I would have completed a total of 35 books read. This is a personal record for me, and something I’m personally proud of. I’ve learned a lot in the fields of technology, business, economics, international relations (and even threw in some autobiographies for good measure!)

✍ The fact you’re reading this now means I’ve followed through on writing more. Earlier this year, I created a new blog at my website and attempted to post as frequently as I can. While I’ve wavered a bit at this, I believe that I’ve written the most words in one year than I ever have since attending college.

💼 What do I hope to accomplish in 2026? That’s more complicated. I will continue my push for gainful employment that not only teaches me new skills, but an entity where I can bring my own skillset to the table. (Despite being dealt many blows, I have not given up!)

↗️ I will continue to work on my own health by maintaining a healthy weight, stress-levels, mental and financial health. All of the above work hand-in-hand to improving one’s life. Lastly, I’ve slacked a bit since I moved to Jersey City, but I’d love to get back into volunteering for the community — whether it be poverty alleviation, environmental, or political. When inspiration strikes or opportunities rise, I’ll keep you apprised.
