This is year brought crazy changes in my life. Things that I never could imagine myself doing happened so suddenly that I haven’t had time to catch my breath yet. Out of all the adventure that 2018 brought the 3 major ones were:

1) Getting Married

This one is super weird, I always thought that marriage is just about two people deciding to spend the rest of their lives together, but NO!, it is much more. A wedding brings each bit of insecurity and anxiety that you may have, to life. Guests, families, people taking a sudden interest in your life, outfits, and Makeup! (for a person like me, who used to just get by in this area, I had to brush myself up a lot). Coping with the change in address and house was scary for the first few weeks. Eventually, my nervousness found peace in Green Teas and Hot Chocolates made by my partner.

2) Changing my Job Domain

I worked for more than 5 years in capacity management, and I was pretty confident with all the things I learned so far. I loved my work in this domain. But, I felt like switching my profile and learning a new skill. Therefore, I shifted to Project Management. For those of you who are new to these IT jargons, these two profiles are quite different from each other. This change was long overdue, I always wanted to work in project management. Therefore, 2018 gifted me this change as well.

3) Becoming an Author

I waited for this the longest; to make this shift and add the word ‘Author’ to my profile. So yay! Here I am and Live More is finally out.

More than anything, I consider these changes to be the greatest gifts I received in 2018. Now, I will be stepping in 2019 with hope and will be anticipating miracles that this new year will bring.

What are the gifts that you received in 2018? Let me know in the comments below. I wish you a Happy New Year!
