Lesson.
Actions Speak Louder Than Words
At the beginning of 2024, I penned down a few goals. One of them was to record new podcast episodes.
My actions, however, led me to create and focus on The Big 3 Newsletter and successfully send 38 consecutive editions. Eye-opening.
While doing my year-end audit, it became clear that certain goals I thought were a priority had taken the backseat.
Our actions, and where we put our energy will always reveal what matters most to us, good and bad.
Actions always speak louder than words we speak.
Lucky for me, this newsletter is a joy to produce and I am open to seeing it unfold.
Knowing my joy in sparking thought-provoking conversations, I wouldn't be surprised to see it evolve into a round table chat with a few interesting folks.
The lesson: Watch what you do vs what you say. No judging, just observing. Then, either stay the course or change direction based on your goals.

The Last Three Titles I Bought in 2024
It Was You All Along - by Russ
The Shiny cover and intriguing title caught my attention. By the first page, I was sold.
The book addresses the question posed by the subtitle—what if you’re the one you’ve been waiting for? Success comes from loving and believing in yourself and working hard regardless of obstacles and naysayers.
LifeStyled - by Shira Gill
The cover is aesthetically pleasing and the tagline felt like the guidance I need right now, as I restructure my focus.
Applying the tools found in LifeStyled, you can transform your life, mindset, and schedule with accessible tips and quick wins—little things you can integrate or practice for quick, transformative results.
The Artist’s Way - By Julia Cameron
The interactive nature of this guide made it difficult to follow the audiobook. So I decided to get the physical copy after all.
A revolutionary program for personal renewal, The Artist's Way will help get you back on track, rediscover your passions, and take the steps you need to change your life.
I am always on the lookout for a good read. What books made it to your 2025 reading list? Let me know.
