An open letter to all the hustlers. Content Warning.
To be or not to be, to go all in or to unwind and relax, we question our dreams, running in constant chase of our quests to come true, we are the ones who never sleep. Dreamers we are called, the ones who passionately strive in the endeavours of the best they could ever be, here is a letter to me, a letter to you. In the stride of embracing the best you have ever been, nurture your soul before the onset of the abundance in you that lies unseen.

This is the Year
It’s been two years since I published my first story on Vocal. I should start by saying that I have a bittersweet relationship with writing. I have always loved writing, but I guess you could say I have commitment issues- apologies to my very patient fiancé- because for a long time I was never able to finish anything. I thought that maybe it was because I was trying to write novels and that was just too much for me. So, I thought short stories might be a good idea. But they all sucked. They felt dull and boring. I became someone with scraps of paper overfilling a box in my closet with half formed ideas and wandering thoughts. Folders of chapters that abruptly end. Approximately 100 notes on my phones that could go somewhere, but who knows?

There's Only One Thing Worse Than an Author That Doesn't Stop Talking About Their Novel
Never does. I have a small problem when it comes to certain quick form constant scrolling media sites on my phone. I can open the app to simply kill a few minutes here and there and somehow the next thing I know it's been almost twelve hours later, dinner is burning, the house is on fire, aliens have invaded, and my partner has run away with a circus clown - that's how suckered into it I can get.

This Crazy Tumble
“Only connect", the novelist EM Forster wrote. His character (Margaret in Howard's End) was suggesting a union of "passion and prose" (or the inner and outer life), but those two words - only connect - have become a rallying cry for the 21st century, expressing the importance of people relating to one another in an increasingly fragmented world.

2024
I don’t expect to achieve greatness in the next year. “Shoot for the moon, and you’ll land among the stars,” they say. But they never mention the fall. The shattering, devastating plummet into the self-criticizing abyss of failure. Forever tumbling and smashing into the nightmares of your shortcomings, the descent to the stars is a crash landing when all hope for achieving the dream is lost.

2024: Putting Myself Out There and Clearing My Plate
Happy New Year! 2023 is now behind us, and I can’t help but say “good riddance”. It was a rough year for me, and I know I’m not the only one who felt that way. Mentally, emotionally, financially, and creatively 2023 felt like the year I hit several new low points. I’m all too happy to close that book and look toward 2024 with more motivation and optimism (especially after finally taking a proper and much-needed vacation last month).

Aspirations for 2024
Vocal asked and I'm providing. I find it almost therapeutic to sit down and consider exactly what I'm aspiring towards in 2024. I love writing on Vocal and I love being a creator. I love the opportunity to slow down for a moment and truly think about my aspirations as a creator on Vocal this year.

Part 2 of my Vocal Investment journey
I have finally invested with the great hope that I am still around in five years to see where this is all leading; tomorrow, after all, is promised to no one. On the flip side, I am also hoping that I will be very rich. Written with a smile.
