We live in a world where trends dictate much of what we do and how we think. Everyone wants to be part of the latest craze, whether it’s the newest tech, style, or even job trends. But what if following the crowd isn’t always the best path? What if, sometimes, being unstylish can actually be more rewarding and fun? This idea hit home during a recent job interview, and it made me reflect on the true value of pursuing what genuinely interests us, rather than just what’s trendy.

This blog explores my challenge in understanding emotions. I compare it to Leonardo da Vinci’s scientific approach. Despite feeling emotions, my analytical brain often takes over, making it hard to grasp them fully. Yet, I remain hopeful. Like Leonardo’s quest for truth, I trust in the brain’s ability to learn. With time, I hope to better understand emotions and find inner peace.

As I jot this down, there’s a mix of sadness and relief. Love isn’t just a chemical reaction or physical attraction; it’s about presence and connection. The women I’ve loved had more than just charm—they had a unique essence. Even when love feels past tense, it never fully leaves. We’re all trying to grasp this feeling, writing and reading about it, but maybe we never quite do. And that’s okay.

As each year concludes, I open my notebook to plan the next, jotting down aspirations, material and emotional alike. This blog delves into my unique goal-setting process, not a guide but a personal perspective. Divided into six facets—Physical Health, Career, Personal Development, Finance, Relationships, and Hobbies—it encapsulates my approach towards life’s journey. Aiming not for a perfect rhythm but perpetual movement, I share thoughts and practices that resonate with my quest for happiness and fulfillment. Happy New Year! 🚀
