2012 in Review
Source: Uploaded by user via Attila on Pinterest
It has come to that time of year when we are about to farewell the current year and welcome in another. With the farewell we celebrate the achievements, learn from the mistakes and be grateful for what we have. The new year however is another story, it is an unwritten story. A story that we get to write, it is full of opportunity and excitement.
So what are you grateful for from 2012?
So what lessons did you learn in 2012?
What is the story you are going to write for yourself in 2013?
For our family 2012 has been full of adventure and changes. We moved back to Canberra, three of the children returned to Australia, two of the children started at new schools and we got married….. What a perfect year.
Workwise, Kim’s business is doing well. She is meeting revenue targets, while allowing time for the children. I changed my full time job at the end of the year and after a month in the new role I am looking forward to the challenges ahead in 2013. Business wise I have also supported Kim in addition to delivering some leadership coaching, training and consulting. Within my role in the Army Reserve we have wrapped a year with some quality training and support to a number of domestic and overseas operations from our Squadron.
Scouting wise the family has also been busy…. In addition to my current role on the ACT Branch International team Kim has lodged the paperwork to be a leader. Kim and myself also had an awesome opportunity to travel to Timor Leste with a group of teenagers for an International Scouting Community Service Project.
So what about 2013….. It is a story that we are to write, that said we have plans to build on the successes of 2012 and to learn from the mistakes of 2012…. Stay tuned for more.

What a fulfilling 2012 for you attila! And i find balance in there — work, family, marriage, kids, travel. You are blessed! Here’s wishing you an equally wonderful 2013.
One of my life goals is to visit Australia with my four kids. Looking forward to seeing more of it through your eyes!
Australia is a great place to visit. It is so diverse and there is so much to see…. I am sure you and your kids will enjoy it…
I really like this blog. Thanks for connecting with me, Attila. Happy, Prosperous New Year to you and your family.
Thank you for your well wishes. I wish you and your family the best for 2013
In some cultures, they start the new year with eating foods with combination of all flavours- bitter, sweet, sour and savoury. Here’s wishing you a new year with new experiences. Thanks for stopping by my blog and for following me.
That is an awesome story, I like the reminder to have new experiences for the new year.
I have a lot to learn from my mistakes. I hope I won’t repeat them in 2013. I must remind myself about this. Wish you a better 2013. You’re a very positive guy!
Thank you fro your comments…. Mistakes are good it means that we are moving along new ground and developing…. As you rightfully say it is important that we do not repeat them.
Attila, sounds like 2012 was a great year for you — here’s to a fantastic 2013! Thank you for stopping by and following Travel Oops! Steph

I enjoyed very much your 2012-review post. I’m glad your career change has worked out for you. I also enjoyed very much your posts earlier this year from Timor Leste, and many of your other posts. Happy 2013 – /ljw
Loren, I am glad that my posts have proved value…. I hope to continue doing so into the future…. Wishing you the best of years for 2013.
grateful to be alive!
That is something worthwhile to be grateful for….
It sounds like you’ve had a rich and eventful year! I remember a great quote (but not who said it): “The best way to predict the future is to create it yourself.” I’ll second that!
That is a great quote…. There is power in the quote when we understand that we create our future…
Blessings for the New Year Attila to you and your family. I have enjoyed your posts and following your adventure.
