As the year 2019 comes to a close, many of us are reflecting on the lessons we've learned and the experiences we've had. For the author, 2019 was a year of growth, perseverance, and self-discovery.

Published on December 28, 2019, the author shares their story of how they went from feeling hopeless and jobless in 2018 to landing their first consulting job and getting accepted into a Master's program at NYU in 2019.

One of the key lessons the author learned in 2019 is that 'it does get better.' Despite facing rejection and heartbreak, the author persevered and eventually saw their hard work pay off. They also learned the importance of 'letting yourself heal' after a major heartbreak, and how taking time to focus on themselves helped them bounce back stronger.

Another important lesson the author learned is the power of 'trying it out.' They realized that taking small steps, such as making an application or sending an email, can lead to big opportunities and growth. The author encourages readers to take risks and be audacious, just like they did.

As the author looks to 2020, they are filled with motivation and hope. They encourage readers to use the motto 'the world is at my feet' to boost their confidence and take on new challenges.
