Resolve This – A toast to 2015

1st January 2015 By Jonelle

Hey Ho it’s 2015!
I think that people make new years resolutions with the best intentions but often they can end up just being a way to let yourself down. It’s not always easy to get to gym 5 times a week. Sometimes, life gets in the way of the best laid plans. I’ve tried it but I honestly can’t remember the last time I set resolutions for myself. I’m generally just not the kind of person who makes them. This is for a number of reasons.

  1. I don’t like to fail
  2. I’d rather not live with letting myself down. 

Okay so it’s for two reasons but that counts for something right. I can’t quite remember the last time I made any anyway. I suspect that the list might have included get to the gym more or exercise more or lose weight. I’ve since decided that it’s easier to just accept that I hate the gym and I love a glass or two of wine more than watching my weight so that’s one to cross off the list. Honestly, I don’t miss having those resolutions anyway. I like my life the way it is. This year I decided to set myself some goals. Not things I won’t do or silly promises to clean my house more but genuine goals that I strive to achieve this year. I feel deep down inside that 2015 is going to be the year for me. So these are my goals. Not for 2015 but for my future.

  1. Blog religiously and make something out of this blog. 
  2. Get my business off the ground. I mean really make it work. 
  3. Develop a working curriculum for my workshops.
  4. Get certified as a trainer. 
  5. Find clients. 
  6. Make it happen (What do I mean by it? Well life. Everything it takes to be happy in my life).

So those are my goals/challenges for myself for the future. I’ve put them out into the world because I’m a little nervous about my business and whether or not people are ready for Diversity Management here in Cape Town. Mostly the reaction I get when people ask what I do is “hmm soooo what is that exactly?”. This is going to be the year I let people know exactly what that is.

Hello, I’m Jonelle and this is my story.

Wow! This was a moment. Turning 40 when I almost d Wow! This was a moment.
Turning 40 when I almost didn’t live past 32. 
Grateful for every day of every year since then! 
Life is so precious and life is everything you make it. 

Thankful for all the opportunities I’ve had along the way. Thankful for all the people I’ve met and the leaps I’ve taken! 

Grateful to live where we do. 
Grateful for my family and friends. 
Grateful to live comfortably and never have to worry about being without. Such privilege in a world with so much struggle. 

Thankful for my pets who drive me nuts and love me endlessly. 

I’m looking forward to the next decade. Stepping more into myself and knowing who I am and what my boundaries are. The things I will not tolerate or accept. 

Just grateful for my life. 
The end. #HBD to me!
