A Look Back and a Look Forward

Happy holidays!

I haven’t done any year-end reviews ever, not even personally. I never really set any specific goals beforehand, and reviewing the year without setting any goals would make one think of only the things that didn’t kind of go well because, well, even if we don’t put it on paper, we do have some intrinsic goals that we wish to achieve. We realise that only when we either achieve them or fall short.

But this year was different. I kind of had a few things I wanted to focus on, and hence, this year-end review.

But more than a year-end review, this is also a plan for the next year. I want to look forward more than look back.

Here are a couple of things I referred to in the video:

• Books:

  • What’s Our Problem

  • The Song of the Cell

  • When Einstein Walked With Gödel

  • The Gene: An Intimate History

  • What Is Real?

  • The Handmaid’s Tale

  • Ruskin Bond: Collected Short Stories

• My Goodreads page, in case you want to know what I’m reading, what all I’ve read

• iOS Apps:

  • InstaNotes: Email Me

  • InstaConvert: Travel Currency Converter

  • InstaReflect: Give Words to Feelings
