Wow Maggie! Is that an exam you have to take online or is that in person? I was always so bad at test taking. I wish that the tests I took could have been verbal conversations.

My goal for 2020 is to follow good feelings. I want to feel good about the choices I make and will be stepping back to figure out what I truly need.

That's an awesome goal Kimberly! Have you made any choices that you're proud of so far?

Yes Andy- I have switched to an 80% plant based diet which has helped greatly with my energy and I also have less food related symptoms like bloating.

That's amazing! I did the plant based diet stuff for a long time. It's really great how amazing and full of energy / life. Keep me posted on awesome stuff you're doing! Sounds like you're off to an epic start.

Speak more positively about myself and my abilities. Control my anxiety, land a job by end of month and just get back to my true, happy self.

I always find it cool that when you speak positively about others, you begin to speak more positively about yourself. My mind is my biggest competitor on the planet, and I've learned that while not always easy....speaking positively does a lot of good for the heart, mind, and soul. With anxiety, I've found that taking control over my sleep schedule along with CBD oil has really helped my overall anxiety spurts. Now is a great time to be looking! I know that a lot of companies are starting their hiring initiatives for this year and you chose a great time to be looking for that company that inspires and encourages your true self. Life is easier and way more beautiful when you have the autonomy and the ability to be your true self. You can do it!

Nice Melanie! Will you use courses through like Lynda or Lessonly for that or are there better platforms for conversational learning?

Not sure yet. I was thinking about an audiobook. Also via networking just meet someone who is an interpreter! Jackpot and the stars have aligned!

Check out an app called Babbel! I just heard about it on the radio this morning on my way to the gym and thought of you immediately! It references conversational translation and such. Seems pretty neat!

Nice Laura! Congrats to your daughter as well. She's certainly growing a huge following and that is for sure something to be proud of. I think it's really cool in how you related it to a high school sport of sorts. Wish my parents thought of some of those creative endeavors that way. Keep writing! You got this.

I'm a new ( as of July, 2019) Government employee, hired in at the GS15 level. My goal is to complete my required Level III certification in IT Management before the end of 2020 (you have 2 years to complete it, but I'm more than half way through, so I think it's a manageable goal).
