This year was another rollercoaster but for different reasons than the 2020 dumpster fire year. For us, it was a year of big changes. We were expecting our second child, we moved across the country and added two more houses to our real estate portfolio. With a bigger family, a new home, a new state and more properties, where we expected to be and where we wound up were very different. Here\u2019s the year in review:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Good Stuff (In No Particular Order)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Bad Stuff<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 2021 Goal Results<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n At first glance, we didn\u2019t really achieve many of our goals. However, we did make some big changes and adjusted our plans based on new situations. We had items to strive for and it helped create momentum.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Real Estate Investing<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Our team in Oklahoma City changed and we tried a cost-plus model for construction that will be reviewed in another post as it did have an impact on our investing activity. For 2022, we will reinstate the goal to expand to other markets to increase our cash flow and our investment portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Networking<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Personal<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Setting goals helps me understand myself better. For one, the reason I didn\u2019t achieve some of my personal goals is because I made my family the priority and did not set boundaries or space for me to work on other things. It’s up to me to define what space and time I need. And then ask for it. This will be at the top of my list for 2022 goals. This should help me keep up with my blog, improve my relationship with my daughter and make some room for self-care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
