#comebackyear

If the last year felt chaotic, unproductive, or full of false starts, you’re not alone. Many people try to change everything at once and burn out before they see real progress.

The truth is simple: a life reset takes time. And 12 months is enough to build the foundation for a different future 💛

To make 2026 a comeback year, break the year into four clear phases instead of setting random goals. This structure helps you stay focused and consistent even when motivation fades.

Here’s the phase-by-phase roadmap ⬇️

Q1: Stabilize life • improve sleep and routines • reduce digital and mental noise • create space for focus

Q2: Build skills and habits • choose one growth skill • practice daily in small blocks • add 2–3 habits that matter

Q3: Improve income, confidence, and health • apply your skills • build an income stream • take uncomfortable but necessary steps

Q4: Reflect, refine, and expand • review what worked and what didn’t • strengthen routines and systems • plan your next steps from clarity

The magic isn’t in one month of intense effort. It’s in steady progress stacked month after month. That’s how you transform a year into a turning point✨

If you’d like a deeper breakdown of each phase plus practical steps you can apply right now, the full post is available on my blog. It’s written for real people with busy lives, not perfect routines.

So this is a New Year... It happens every year and people, being creatures of habit, will make New Years Resolutions that will be here today and gone tomorrow.  With that being said, a part of me likes it.  To me it's as if it allows people to feel a new sense of hope, a feeling of a fresh start, an allowance of forgiveness and a time to change.  Now we are who we are, but it is always a great thing to want to better yourself an to become a better version of who you are.  

As I reflect back on this past year (2013), I thought of all of my accomplishments, some small and some smaller :P  Let's reflect, shall we.  

My Accomplishments of 2013:

Moved into a new apartment (no roommates) 

Survived the biggest heartbreak of my life

Got my dog back (I love my Beijo!)

Watched 9 seasons of Grey's Anatomy in two months! (yes that is something to be proud of)

Went back to school and actually completed the semester

Changed jobs (from a stable job to a very unstable job)

Cut ties with necessary people 

I have a better sense of self

Those are the only things I could think of.  Like I said, small and smaller, but they are accomplishments nonetheless.  This past year as been rough on me, but it is more of a transitional year.  You need to crawl through the mud some times to know what it's like to be clean.  I have been on an emotional roller coaster.  I am not yet where I want to be, but I'm also not ready to give up.  

I continue to stay hopeful.  I continue to work on becoming the woman I hope to be and find genuine happiness, joy, and serenity in myself, without relying on others.  I am now a personal trainer and I spend my days trying to better the live's of others and I can't think of anything else I'd rather be doing.  It may not be as touching the lives of homeless or helping the families in a third world country (hopefully I'll be able to do that too one day), but it is a start to helping people find self-happiness and working towards a healthier society.  

2014 will be a new year and it will hopefully be a "Comeback" year for me.  I need to embrace the fact that I cannot live forever in a day and that people will always come and go from my life.  I need to not take things so personally at times.   I have been called weird and sensitive a lot over the past couple of weeks and I think it's just because I am not understood... I need to just accept that those are the people I probably shouldn't be around.  Being strong enough to cut ties is impressive and will pay off in the end.  

Stay strong and embrace what you love.  Make changes that not only make you proud, but make others smile.
