Good day, amazing people of the Hive Blockchain. Welcome back to my blog. It is another edition in the #hiveghana community. I am so delighted to participate in this week's prompts: postponed dreams.

At the beginning of every year, I always pen down things I would like to achieve before the year ends. I was always hoping that before the year's end I will achieve every single thing I pen down. I make out a plan on how to achieve those goals of mine, and I work towards achieving those goals. I will not lie; this year ran too fast. Before I knew what was happening, we were at the end of the month.

Looking at the calendar, I just realised that there is no time; the year will end in a few days. I just realised that some certain goals I planned to achieve before the year's end are now unachievable because there is no time. I just tell myself that it is now a carryover project that will be achieved next year. One part of my heart is pained that I was unable to achieve all my goals.

I will not lie. Just like yesterday, we enter 2025, and now we are at the end of the year. I always tell myself that there is still time. Before I know what is happening, we have only a month and some weeks to wrap up the year. I was able to learn that procrastination is bad. Probably I could have achieved all my goals, but I keep telling myself there is still enough time. At the end, I find out that there are a lot of goals I didn’t achieve.

It pains me that I have to carry this project over to next year. Coming this year, I told myself I was going to get myself a new phone and laptop for work and study. This year happens to be a very challenging year for me. I saved up the money to buy the laptop, and I received a call from my sister that my mom was sick. I had to send the money I saved for my laptop and phone for my mom's treatment.

As the year is rounding up, I don’t think I will be able to achieve this goal because there are few months to wrap up for me – no pressure at all. I am so optimistic that whatever I didn’t achieve this year, I will do that next year.

One thing about life is we can’t predict it. One sweet thing is I am alive, and I am hopeful that any goal I didn’t achieve this year I will do better at next year. All hope is not lost. In all, I am grateful for the opportunity and lessons this year taught me.

This is my entry on the ongoing weekly prompts #hiveghana topic postponed dreams.
