What I Wish I Knew Then: 15 Lessons I’ve Learned Over the Years
I did a big thing this year and published my very first book. I acted on a seed planted in 2017 and I didn’t stop until the work was finished. I did it.
And now, being on the other side of the hard work, love, and dedication I poured into such a project, I’ve been reflecting on the last few years and everything I’ve learned. Some lessons are silly, while others have set the foundation of my life, giving me the confidence to go after and achieve my dream of writing and publishing a book.
It’s true that we are always learning, however, similar to when God speaks to us, we must be aware and willing if we are to absorb the knowledge given from our experiences, relationships, and conversations with ourself and others.
I hope you, dear friend, find comfort in “the 15 lessons I’ve learned over the years.” Perhaps it will inspire you to write your own.
