The Journey begins....

To begin this blog - which I am determined to keep updated this time!- it seems wise to start with the question that I have been asking myself. "Where do I want to be in 5 years". At first the answer was simple, "I want to be successful, have a lot of money, drive a nice car", you know the whole luxury deal...

let me interupt myself right here and tell you a bit more about myself. I'm a girl, from the caribbean, living in the Netherlands and I just turned 19 two days ago. I know what you are thinking "why is a 19 year old girl already planning her future"... well yeah that's just me I guess, with plans as big as mine the earlier you start the better right. I mean since failure is a part of the whole road to success  -or so all the books say- I figured if I start early I can do all the failing now and get to the success right in time to be able to enjoy it. 

But to get back on track. I know what I want, but now comes the big red stoplight that made me think. After reading this article with 18 steps on how to become successful I had to regroup and restrategize. the 2nd point in the article after "imagine yourself successful" was to know what you want to be successful in. Now that is something I never really thought about. I mean everyone wants to be successful right, but how often have we really stopped and asked ourselves what we want to become successful doing?

Well this blog is a documentary of my journey, to discover exactly that. And hey maybe someone else could get inspired by it. In any case welcome on my journey, to discover who I am and what I want in life. 

p.s.  just in case you were wondering what the article/blog is with the 18 steps here is the link!:
