2023, the warm up year.

Wow, what a year!

I can honestly say that 2023 was an extremely interesting one for me in terms of both my work and how I have changed as a person.

Highlights

• Travelling, I got the privilege to visit 7 new countries and terrorities throughout 2023, this is mainly due to my amazing partner but wow, what a beautiful planet we live on!
• In April, I started heading to a local gym just down my street whenever I am staying in the apartment. This has helped with gaining muscle and taught me that the key to success is both commitment and consistency.
• This was my first full year working at Google, I am proud of how much I learned and grown... this only showed me that there is so much to learn.

Downlights

• Watching a previous company I worked for close their doors in Sweden was painful to see for me. I can only hope for everyone to land on their feet during this tough time.
• Cost of living has hit hard this year, anywhere ranging from 7% - 25% increases on monthly prices.

I cannot wait for what 2024 has in store for me. While on vacation these holidays, I reflected on my 2023 goals and wrote down some things that I will aim for in 2024, for example:

• Kicking ass in the gym and cleaning up my diet
• Challenging myself more at work
• Travelling to another 7 new countries (1 already down!)
• Read more and in general, work on myself

Cheers to you and yours, and I hope everyone has a safe and outstanding New Year's!
