Reflecting on the best things of 2024, here are my best thoughts and actions from 2024
I love trip planning and making my dreams come true. I planned some good ones in 2024. Places I traveled to: Little Rock, Memphis, Whitefish, Banff, Glacier National Park, Missoula.
Realizing that I’m good at my job and and I’m not here to make people like me.
Realizing that I might just stay here for a while.
Finishing the Philadelphia marathon.
Buying a Wahoo trainer so I can ride inside.
Driving the Cades Cove Loop in Great Smoky Mountains National Park
What am I doing when I am my favorite self? The answer: when I’m on a trail in the woods, whether hiking or running. Most of the time I’m scared and can’t wait to get home, but my favorite self is out there reaching a goal such as getting to the summit, and hiking fast or running to get there, and then get back home safely. I like being an outdoorsy person who knows how to dress in layers to stay warm. I like doing amazing things outdoors. This is my favorite self.
I also really like going to work and I like the work I do. I like doing all the tasks I do from project planning and coordination to strategy and master planning. I like all the things coming at me at once and making a plan from chaos. I just have to remember not everyone likes the same things I do, and they don’t approach problem solving like I do.
