Wrapping Up: 2024 Highlights

Time to wrap up another year. The year has been full of opportunities, new projects, and adventures, and it was quite difficult for me to choose my favorites. But for the purpose of closure, let’s say that here are the year’s highlights:

 

Top 5 Achievements

… as seen from my personal perspective…

🏆 I changed my perspective on how I viewed a recently acquired hobby – knitting – and completely transformed my entire life. (This will also most likely be my first accomplishment in 2025 in view of my second book: Cross-Referencing Creativity.)

🏆 With the newly gained insights, I finally published my first book, The Essential 52: 52 Time Management Techniques for 52 Tightly Packed Weeks. This isn’t the first book I wrote – just the first one I finally mustered up the courage to publish.

🏆 Christmas came early this year for me, as PREXcoaching® became an officially registered trademark in the US, providing a sense of closure to all my trademark applications.

🏆 I collected a bunch of my favorite games and activities I use in PREXcoaching® sessions and created a pool of digital products to be sold in 2025. This includes The Great Pen Challenge, The 12 Days of Joy to the Teams, Aligned & Abundant Affirmations, Scintillating Storytelling, Captivating Conversations, and several other compilations.

🏆 I deepened my knowledge of video editing and learned to work in Affinity Designer, Photo and Publisher tools, as well as with several AI tools. There’s still a lot to learn, but I look forward to it very, very much.

 

Top 10 Lessons

… as concluded through some of my blog posts, book(s), and sessions…

💡 Every day is a Monday, if you’re lucky enough.

💡 Baby steps make the longest journeys.

💡 If you’re on the right path, the mountains will move out of your way on their own.

💡 People will always tell you everything; you just need to listen.

💡 Instead of embracing your “flaws,” embrace your Charisma – that sh*t will take you places.

💡 It’s difficult to be who you want to be when all you are allowed to be is who you are. Accept yourself, and everything else is pretty straightforward from that point on.

💡 Every moment is right if you want it to be.

💡 Patience is more than a virtue, a skill, or an ability – it’s a morsel of ether.

💡 If you can’t get it right now, wait until it comes to you. No one can take it if it’s yours anyway.

💡 Creativity is a lifestyle.

 

And a Random Bonus Thought

I didn’t include PREXcoaching® sessions in my achievements and lessons of 2024 as they constitute my everyday life. I am surrounded by amazing people, and I simply love what I do. That’s not an achievement or a lesson – it’s a blessing.

 

Well, there it is – 2024 all wrapped up. 2025, here I come! I’m looking forward to it! 🥂🥳🎉🎊
