MY ACHIEVABLE GOALS FOR 2017

I feel like I really neglected myself in 2016. I barely drunk, I removed my makeup every night but yet I still feel as if I didn't quite love myself as much as I should have. Whilst I've been on a journey of self-love for quite some time, I feel like I haven't put my heart and soul into loving myself and for me, 2017 is going to be different, It is going to be the year I dedicate to myself. I've set a few simple and achievable goals to help better me, to make me a kinder person, a stronger person and most importantly a person who loves themselves.

one: Quit sweating the small stuff.

I'm always guilty of worrying about the small things, the things that are completely irrelevant. Is my Instagram cohesive? Are my photos white enough? are my photos to white? whatever it is quit it.

Lifes to short to worry and waste time on the small things it is ok to post a picture that doesn't fit in with your Instagram feed. (I love a cohesive feed, but I also love in the moment shots)

two: Eat clean and exercise.

In 2016 my healthy eating habits went out the window. I definitely gained a few extra pounds, who am I kidding? I definitely gained a few extra stone and sure some of its down to having a baby, but that is such a lousy excuse to allow yourself to gain unwanted weight. I'm back to eating well and exercising and even after a few days, I feel like a new person, I instantly have more energy and just feel in a positive frame of mind. 

three: Know when to take a break.

Okay, so whenever I set myself goals, I have a nasty habit of literally running myself into the ground.

When I eat clean, I end up completely restricting everything I enjoy from my diet. This isn't healthy, a girl needs some chocolate every now and again. I also obsess over my blog, my Instagram followers, likes and all that jazz, I know it's natural in the blogging community to grow and track your progress, just don't forget to spend time with family and embrace the things that are happening right in front of you.

four: Improve blog photography, scheduling, and knowledge.

I'm always trying to improve my photography, I feel like it's something that you can always improve on. I also want to try and improve on my posting schedule, I don't have set days that I post, I post when I can, but I really want be posting at least twice a week and figure out how and when is best to shoot my photos and write my posts etc. I just want to expand my blogging knowledge in general.

five: Work my arse off.

I'm hard working, always have been and always will be, it's just kind of in my nature. But this year more so than ever, I want to work my arse off in every aspect of my life. My job, My blog, My weight, whatever it is I'm working at it and I'm not giving up. I'm feeling more determined than ever for success, which is probably down to having a child, I want to be able to always support her and for her to grow up with a Mum that has worked for everything she has, for me that's important. I want to be her number one role model.

I hope you all had an amazing Christmas and a fantastic start to the New Year. Thank you for continuing to support me and my blog in 2017! This year I aim to post regularly and create posts that you really want to read. Feel free to leave me any requests in the comments.
