Another year and another time to think about setting goals for yourself. 2018 was actually the very first year I wrote down or set any goals for myself and I am so glad that I did – so of course I’m not going to let this year go without any!
2018 was undoubtedly a great year compared to others as it gave me a lot, watching my baby grow into a little girl, a new career and a new home.
So what do I want from this year?
Organisation
Going back to work, blogging, being a mum and everything else has shown me that I really need to start being better organised. So I’m on a mission to be organised whether that’s got to do with my blog or personal life – I’ve got my hands on the positivity planner and so far it has been helping me to plan and get things done!
Read
Mid 2018 I got so excited about getting back into reading, I bought several books but only managed to finish one and a half! This year I want to at least get through the books I bought and if possible get tucked into more.
Make my Bed
Yes, I have been one of those that sometimes just cannot be bothered! But since the new year, I’ve made a pact with myself that I will not step out of my bedroom until my bed is made!
Clean and Tidy before going to bed!
This is with regards to our kitchen/lounge area. Waking up to a nice and tidy kitchen and room in the morning just gives you that lovely feeling doesn’t it? I’ve started making more of an effort towards the end of the year and I hope to continue. Honestly speaking, I don’t want to be dealing with extra mess when I want to be getting ready for work!
Self Care
The one that got away!
So this was that one goal on my 2018 list that I did not get round too! Sad but true! I want to have a set routine after A goes to sleep whether that includes winding down, reading a book or some skincare – here’s hoping that 2019 will be the year I take care of myself!
Blogging
To keep on blogging but also not to put myself under pressure. Whether that means cutting down the number of posts I post in a week, taking a break when need be and anything! Blogging is my escape, I don’t want it to become a chore as then it’s no longer fun and I’m not here for that.
Social Media
This is in terms of Instagram in particular, I want to make some effort in the pictures I take and post – I like a bit of a challenge and want to see what I can do.
Additionally, I need to stop being so lazy and actually promote my blog and posts more on social media!

So these are my goals, what are yours?
My husband I have made a New Years resolution to not go to bed without tidying the kitchen. So far we’ve only not done it a few times �� thanks for your honesty with these. I’ve only just started to blog so you’re very inspirational x
