New Year, New Me. How many times do you hear that saying every year? only about a dozen. LOL. Honestly though every year I make new years resolutions and they always fail, so this year I decided to try to change things up a little. This year I decided to make goals because to me they are more obtainable and I have more motivation to work towards them.
Goals for 2016.
1. Take more pictures
When I am out on adventures with friends or am traveling I find that I get caught up in the excitement and forget to take pictures. Yes it is great to get caught up in the moment but having pictures to look back on in a few years is something awesome, and brings back all the amazing memories you made.This year I hope to take more pictures, especially on my exciting travels coming later the year.
2. Read
I was a child that hated reading. When I think back to my childhood, I hated the thought of having silent reading or having reading for homework. I think my hate started because my reading level was lower then the rest of my class, yes it might have hindered me growing up as it takes me way longer to read then all my friends. I have found some books that I enjoy reading and they are by Sarah Dessen, so my goal is to try and read more. I have also read Girl Online and enjoyed it so i'm going to read Girl Online On Tour next.
3. Be Healthier
I have learned you can't just go cold turkey on your habits. So i've decided to take baby steps, I am an avid pepsi/coke drinker so my first goal is to give up soda. So far so good, I haven't completely stopped but testing myself once a week is fine for a while until I don't find myself reaching for it at all. I am also looking for healthier alternatives for my lunches and food i'm drinking. To try and fit in physical activity, I try to so some at home workout once every 2 days. I might even try the squat challenges etc that have been going around.
Let's make these goals happen.
