Am I happier now, then I was a year ago when I started the project? As I look over my happiness project, here is what I can say. My happiness project forced me to live out what I thought I was and who I thought I was. At times, that worked for the best, at other times it felt like I was wearing a sweater that was too tight. Sometimes when I was walking the talk, I realized that I am not that person. I do not care about the things I thought I cared about. I am not sure if I was always different or the change was more recent. Here are things I learned for better or for worse.
In the end, this challenge gave me permission to be myself. I learned a bit more about who I am and who I am not. I learned strategies for going slowing and giving myself more grace. I did not do everything I planned, but I think I know so much more about myself now than I did a year ago. That knowledge is the gift. By knowing myself better, I am able to do better and feel more confident in doing what I think is right even if it does not meet societal expectations.
