When you ask somebody what they have accomplished in an entire year, some might get a little intimidated to answer that question. When we think of ‘accomplishments’, we might think about the big things like getting a car, or a 6-figure job, or starting one’s own business, or going for a foreign trip. But little wins are also significant and worthy of celebration.
A woman named Jacy, a mental health advocate, took to X to ask people to brag about the things they are proud to accomplish in 2023.

Taking accountability of how bad some of my habits really are/were. Where I am now mentally is where I’d like to stay. Objective, hopeful, and the most inspired version of myself yet.

Being there for my partner when he had surgery. Doesn’t sound like a big deal but it brought us together and made me realize I’m not as helpless.
