2022 The Year of Manifesting

With a new year comes new goals and a new purpose. We all strive to start something new and keep at it as long as possible. For 2022 though, I want to have this year be a year of practicing the idea of manifestation. The practice to be in the right mindset every day to reach your goals. I want to have a better attitude and strive to make passions into a career. 
    My first manifestation is to grow my photography business and get my name out there. I want to extend my passion, and I want people to take me seriously. I want to look back at the end of this year and have an established brand. I want customers that reach out to me and find my work excellent. I made a calendar of all my travel photography this year and got so many compliments that it made me want to take it seriously. When I am taking photos, it doesn’t feel like a job. It feels so refreshing to capture special moments in time. If you are reading this, I hope you can help spread the word a browse my portfolio if you have time or check out my Instagram. I would also like to grow my blog alongside my photo journey because it keeps up my writing and helps me share with the world. Whether talking about food, blogging about goals, or even my photo journeys, I hope you come along for the trip. 
    My second manifestation is to find better relationships with friends and God. Throughout Covid, my relationships with people and friends have become quite depressing, and I don’t exactly know what to do to make it better. I just miss a relationship where I am someone’s go-to person for conversations and hanging out. I want to live out my life and not feel like I’m missing out on life. I get so many people asking me why I don’t do certain things in my 20s, and I honestly just don’t have a life. So here’s to meeting people and growing better relationships. 
    My third manifestation is going on more solo traveling or with one other person. This past December, I went on a bit of trip to Joshua Tree, and I enjoyed it so much. I love hiking and exploring, so it was a great getaway. I went to many national parks last year, and I don’t intend to stop anytime soon. I want to go to Oregon by the end of the year and explore the parks in the state. 
    My fourth manifestation is finding a job in media because I’ve come to understand that’s what I love to do. I had three internships last year, and I’ve only realized that I love creating content. I hope to work in sports media or small business media in the future. So here’s to expect someone excepts my application is approved. 
    The fifth manifestation is to try and have a better mindset. I suffer mentally with a lot of self-worth and understanding where I belong in this world. I’m trying to find my place back in faith to keep a genuine outlook on life. I keep seeing people move on in life so fast, and then there’s me trying to figure out what the next month of my life looks like. So here’s to hoping that I can cry less and smile more about the future. 
    The sixth manifestation is what I started in 2021 and still have not finished. That being bartending school. I was passionate when I started it, but the further I got into it, the more I felt put off by the people. I could have finished in December, but many things happened with a loss in my family and trying to plan a funeral. I don’t start something I can’t complete, so I am manifesting that I will finish and have my certification for the future. 
    I hope looking at my manifestations helps you clear some clear goals for yourself and that 2022 can be a year you actually smile and look back on. I would say my biggest surprise of last year was getting back into reading cause I hadn’t picked up a non-textbook since the beginning of college. I want the next surprise of this year to be career-related, so please pray for the journey. Your support can be as simple as commenting below your thoughts or just saying Happy New Year. I hope everyone has a blessed year and knows that this blog is just as its starting phase.
