Maybe you’ve heard that Facebook rolled out larger images on Facebook – both for their links share posts and ads. Meaning: when you share a link to your Facebook page (or profile), along with the link title and description Facebook will no longer fetch a thumbnail but a nice large image instead.

Don’t Get Stuck in Your Comfort Zone
Just the other week my boyfriend and I were having dinner at a local restaurant in Kamala Beach in Thailand, celebrating Christmas. We were looking back at what an awesome year we had in 2015 and how many more great things we have lined up for 2016. During the conversation though, it became clear that I have been refusing to leave my comfort zone since we left Spain.
Apparently, I really loved the way we set up our life in Santa Pola and actively sabotaged everything that would remotely change any details in it, including working on new business ideas or any planned books. (You know, developing a business or writing a book is too much work and I like being lazy, enjoying my life as it is 🙂
It’s time for New Year’s resolutions and goal setting, but I have blogged about setting smart goals and committing all your resources to hitting your targets, so I won’t repeat myself. Instead, I’ll talk briefly about comfort zones.

My Year 2015 in Photos
You know where I stand when it comes to the meaning of freelance success, right? I don’t fancy myself a successful freelancer because I make a six-figure income (I don’t 😉 ) but because I have absolute freedom what I do with my time and I truly live my life on my own terms.
I am at such a stage in my life that I want to see the world. I want to meet new people, get to know new cultures, experience new things… so it’s only fair to show you what I’ve been up to during 2015 and why I think it was a successful year for me.
Remember that I was broke and jobless back in late 2009. It’s been only 6 years since I started freelancing and look where I got. I hope this post will inspire you to set your goals and free yourself in 2016. The only one standing in your way to freelance success is YOU.
