2025 will be the best year of my life.

2024 wrapped

  • ran my first half-marathon

  • felt lost

  • graduated highschool, won tennis state champtionship with my brothers

  • lived with my relatives in hawaii for a month

  • watched the sunrise from the top of koko crator

  • began a new chapter of life at Swarthmore

4 things I'll be working on increasing in 2025

speed

  • closing mental loops faster

  • not waiting to do things that can be accomplished quickly

  • working, getting feedback, iterating quicker

agency

  • upskilling and doing quality work that i'm proud of

  • taking responsibility for everything in my control

  • planting my feet and building with what i have

luck

  • being maximally prepared for opportunity

  • more focused effort

faith

  • understanding that i am nothing without God's love

  • having true fear of disobedience and life without God

thoughts/lessons from 2024

  • my actions determine my feelings, not the other way around

  • inspiration is impermanent

  • whatever you aren't changing you're choosing

  • don't settle

i hope all of us have the best year of our lives.
