Thoughts From My Balcony: 2020 — What a year it has been!

Shock Your Potential
2 min readJan 22, 2021

I used to imagine that I could multitask my way to greatness.

The past year we experienced a rollercoaster of emotions where we were thrown out to the wind emotionally, financially and socially. I experienced the highest highs to the lowest lows one could ever encounter, from daily social interaction with loved ones and colleagues, to mandatory self- isolation. I battled with my inner self, challenging myself to learn and understand myself from my own standpoint, and not from the outside perspective, be it friends or family.

To truly know myself, the real me across the mirror, was filled with emotions. I became true and raw as I was surrounded with nothing but silence. My inner self, screaming to get out and be heard, made me realize personal development comes from within. And writing my own script, edited and authored by me, was a true reflection of who I wanted to be.

2021 began with this self-realization of who I want to be and the journey I want to embark on.

My emotions have been marred with fear of the unknown, but I will never know the extent of my ability to become if I do not take that leap of faith.

Now I know that my outcomes are simple:

· This will be the best decision of my life, or

· The greatest lesson to learn from, if it happens to be a mistake.

The deep rooted fear has to be overcome since my full potential was shocked in 2020 by learning about myself.

2021 will be about me answering the question “Who am I?”

I am an achiever and a legend in the making.
