Resolutions for 2012

Uncategorized

3 Jan

I’m not normally big on New Year’s Resolutions.  But this year, I feel like they are really important.  Most of what I hope to achieve is only going to happen if I am self-motivated.  I made a page of these resolutions so that I can go back to it and cross off my goals as I achieve them (check out the button on the sidebar, too!)  I’m also hoping that you guys will help hold me accountable.  Here is a little bit of what I’m hoping to achieve in 2012!

Personal

  • Workout 3 days a week
  • Run in a race
  • Get a library card in Lexington
  • Read 8 books
  • Eat a salad every day during the week for a month (inspired by this post)
  • Visit 3+ people Spring 2012 semester
  • Leave the the state of Virginia 3+ times
  • De-clutter our apartment and live simply
  • Continue to explore my camera
  • Be more spontaneous
Blog
  • Reach 100 followers by February
  • Reach 300 followers by the end of the year (we’ll see- that sounds crazy to me!)
  • Get into the habit of scheduling posts at least 3 days in advance
  • Edit layout
  • Start sponsorship program
  • Reach out to other bloggers
  • Attend a blogger meet-up (Alt 2013 is my DREAM!)
What our your resolutions for this year?

      I love your goals! I really like your goal of setting out blog posts 3 days in advance. I really need to get up on that!! And, I love the idea of getting out of the state at least 3 times. It's easy for me because my family lives in a different state, but I'm going to exempt Kentucky too. Great idea!! :)

      I think these are great goals! I'm crossing my fingers that I can leave VA a few times too.

      One of my goals is to also eat a salad every day!! We are blessed with a daughter that loves her veg…but she also has her father's mega sweet tooth.

      Great resolutions, and I think you easily can achieve that 300 followers by the end of the year :)

      I'm putting healthy eating and more water drinking on my list, and less time in front of the computer! I will try to accomplish it with a little help from my
      Day Zero list. Good luck with everything! Can't wait to see how this blog will turn out by the end of the year :D
