At the end of every “Year in Review” mega-post, I compile a list of all the major Life Lessons I’ve learned that year. A couple years ago, I started the tradition of separating this into a separate post from the main 2021 Year In Review post.
In compiling these lessons, I noticed they fell into 4 major categories. I have grouped them accordingly:
People & Relationships
Career & Success
Health & Well-Being
Social Media & Content Creation
Feel free to skip to the sections most interesting or relevant to you. Or just go through them all if you’re feeling in the mood.
Blessings, achievements, goals, and life lessons of the past year

Why Am I Writing This?
Hello friends, followers/subscribers, and various people on the internet. It’s that time of the year again! I’m always excited to do this yearly recap. It allows me the space to take a step back and review everything that has happened in the last 12 months.
This post allows me to simultaneously:
Self-reflect on my past year
Share personal highlights with those who are curious or interested
I’ve been doing these year-end reviews where I recap memorable events, express gratitude, compile my personal statistics, and examine how much progress I made on my personal goals.
A Tradition Since 2016
Since 2016, I’ve been doing these posts mainly for my own records. However, these reflections may also be beneficial to others, so I write them with the intention of a public audience reading them.
For those who don’t know, I do 3 other types of journal reflections: daily, weekly, and monthly. This yearly reflection is somewhat a compilation of those reflections but formatted in a more digestible way for the public.
In a separate post, I’ve compiled all of the life lessons I’ve learned this year. My hope is that sharing my own hard-earned lessons will benefit those who may encounter similar challenges. I also wish to compile these into a book one day.
