I got a great response on one of my other posts and thought I’d drop it here for the larger group to see.

What’s one thing you look to leave behind in 2024? That’s a question I haven’t had to tackle before and it piqued my interest.

For me, it’s the inner critic. I’ve been working on it in therapy and it’s time to get serious about taking the power back. How about you?

Great question. I've really like to leave behind my time-wasting ways. Even though I had a productive year, when I look back I can see times when I really should have been more efficient and more productive. I mean, it's good to stop now and then for perspective, but I just tend to get distracted too much and I need to focus and really work on my time management.

That’s a strong start. Recognizing ways you could be better, even in the face of success is big deal.

Huh. That really is an excellent question. I want to leave behind my people-pleasing side. I'm always far more concerned about keeping the peace rather than standing up for myself in both my personal and professional life. It's time I start taking up space and looking out for myself.

Oh that’s a big one. No more people-pleasing in 2025. Standing up for yourself is freeing and goes a long way.

I am leaving behind anyone who drains me or has negative energy. For too long I have been a people pleaser afraid of making people mad and that leads to me having friends who only drain me. They are getting left in 2024 because this girl is tired.

ALL OF THIS! I wish you the best success in leaving these draining folks and situations behind!!!

I’m 25 and have found a duplex I’m considering purchasing as a rental property. Planning on renting both units and have the cash to make the down payment without an issue. My cash flow analysis has a payback period of 3 years for my down payment and a 13 year payback period for the whole investment. I think financially it makes sense. My question is, is it realistic for a 25 year old young professional to handle dealing with all the extra curricular’s that come with owning a rental property ?
