This year was full of HARD WORK.
I pushed myself and surprisingly my "self" as in my spirit pushed back.
I pushed myself to the brink of insanity with school, and helping my husband grow his business.
For the latter part of the year I had no social life.
I was buried in my books from sun up to sun down.
I was terrified but determined stepping into this field of medicine coming from a business background.
But I would not let my fear or anxiety get the best of me.
I'm happy to look back on this semester and say that all my hard work payed off.
Pulling out my hair, days questioning myself, angry, frustrated, pushing against deadlines, it all paid off.
I had a perfect 4.0 GPA this semester from my course load of 5 classes.
Together, we [hubs and I] grew the business not just by one office as we expected,
but the surprising opportunity came to add a second.
but the surprising opportunity came to add a second.
We are now 4 offices and growing strong.
I put forth the maximum effort towards reaching my goals.
Now I can proudly say I am one step closer and it is all within reach.

5 classes & 4.0? Great job! Going to school & working is hard work!
Congrats to you and Chris, Jan, for ALL of your successes, both individually and collectively, this past year!!! It's WONDERFUL when hard work pays off, isn't it!?! :-D
As for me, I worked even harder at improving my overall health and wellness by making healthier dietary and fitness choices, and striving even harder to maintain these choices. There has been noticeable improvement, but the "work" continues. Indeed, it's a lifestyle! :-)
I wished I had not allowed myself to become frustrated and fed up with my efforts to improve my fluency in French, such that I ceased all things French for a while, refusing to listen to or even utter a word in French because I had become so annoyed, frustrated and impatient with the language and myself. Thankfully, I snapped out of my funk and I'm back at it! :-)
Finally, I'm most proud of earning an A- overall in my Intensive French Language Immersion Program this past Spring/Summer semester. What a relief because I was really beginning to lose steam and heart towards the end of the semester's second session. No cake walk, I tell ya!
