I am being more conscious about my daily decisions which is gradually producing results. Im trying to learn to embrace the process. Thanks for asking!

My spiritual goals were to pray more intentionally, be bold in my faith encouraging others, and to read the Bible by the end of the year. Last month I ran into so many people that needed prayer and I prayed with more folks (strangers, family/friends) last month than I did all last year. I'm also almost finished w the 2nd book of the Bible, 64 to go!
Health and budget goals are slacking but still doin better than expected ☺

I am already on the point of finally giving up that New Year resolution. I promised that I will start living a healthy life because I have been eating junks my entire life and I am starting to feel the consequences.

Pros:
- astounding financial benefits, great healthcare

Cons:

- too many cultists
- closed culture with extremely compartmentalized information, working on a small piece of the puzzle, with reduced ability to demonstrate true value, unless already high up. 
- collaboration across teams is made unusually difficult and doesn’t seem encouraged.
- not remote friendly -- making everyone go back
