tripsq is a fun tool that turns your foursquare checkins into a neat data visualization. it’s a good reminder of what i actually did last year, because i spent so much of it busy and stressed that i never had a chance to sit down and reflect on it.
i made last year’s resolutions on the assumption that i would have lots of down time. instead, i had my most intense and challenging year to date. it was a time of learning, of surprises. and goodbyes. in the process i learned a lot about myself—the way i work, my strengths and even more weaknesses, what drives and fulfills me, how i relate to people. it’s the first time i’ve truly felt like an adult—building two businesses, living bicontinentally, and growing out of childhood relationships. it hasn’t been easy, but i’m incredibly grateful for the people who’ve given me the opportunities i have.
no resolutions this year. just going to attempt a bit more balance. a little more of prioritizing and simplifying. a little more quietness.
