I realized that I have to make my own happiness. I shouldn&#x27;t wait for something to change by itself or for opportunities to show up, because it won&#x27;t happen.<p>I worked a lot on myself this year and I have achieved far more than I would ever hope for. I am now transitioning. I also found a job that I love, that is well paid, have growth opportunities and where everyone knows and accepts that I am transgender. All those 2 things required a lot of work (and really a lot of work) but damn was it worth it.<p>I am now happier than I have ever been and looking forward to 2016!
