I will be eating tons of food and drink a beer or two tomorrow this time around, as I have been invited by some friends to celebrate the new years eve with them. I usually didn't do that, for a few years or so, because I became grumpy and I didn't see the meaning of such celebrations anymore.

Being at the doorstep and preparing to jump high in 2020 I can't hold myself from throwing a glance at what 2019 was about, what meant for me, and most important what I learned from it, because that's what I consider matters the most. Yes, I might be thinking limited and that's why I am not getting too far in judging/praising 2019.

It was an interesting year, for me, and a pretty active one, although I haven't changed my residence...yet. Somehow better than 2018 and I am thankful for that. To whom? To whoever deserves my appreciation...

So, one thing that I learned in 2019 and wish to master in 2020 is simply embracing the unforeseen. I am too tight/stiff sometimes and I am planning too much of too many details, although not being good at math all. I add and subtract too much as well, and sometimes forget to simply just jump on the horse and kick ass. I am planning to change that for 2020.

Another thing that I wish to accomplish is to talk less about my plans and do more about them, and not just career or important life plans am referring to, but even quite small tasks. I've noticed that whenever I reveal what I want to accomplish I don't get the expected result and I get frustrated afterwards. I assume it's thanks to my big mouth that needs to share too much... Wow how many times I said too much in just one paragraph.

I also have become too friendly, outside the screen of my laptop or my phone, and that didn't brought too much joy to my life. I was quite a weirdo a few years ago and since I moved back to my hometown I kind of made too many friends. Some of which I realized, don't deserve my attention, and wisdom.. anymore. I have plenty of it, you know what I mean...

The most important thing that I learned though, on my own, is that health is your friend, and I'm not in my 20's anymore to abuse it. I'm not old either, I am sure of, but for the next year I will have to be more careful on how I treat myself physically and mentally. My body and mind are my walking temple and I wish to have a shinny and healthy one. It is possible to accomplish that at any age, so why not in my 30's.

Ohhh, I almost forgot crypto. What have I learned and swear to put into practice? Dollar cost averaging. My gambling style of flipping cryptos has to come to an end and I have to learn to take profits and buy on the rise of prices, not just dump and buy with both of my pockets. Going always all in and simply holding for ages is not worthy, at least not the way the crypto markets behave nowadays.

Last but not least I learned that time doesn't heal anything, but a healthy mindset and and a clear mind do that. Seeing things as they are, not giving a fuck on things that I can't control, and focusing more on the positive is definitely a must for 2020. Overall 2019 has been a nice year, something like a spring in my life, and now I'm ready for 2020 and whatever it has to throw at me.

What about you, how do you feel about 2019, what have you learned from it, and what do you think you should change for 2020?

Thanks for attention,
Adrian
