... Resolutions ...
I think it is important to set goals in our lives and challenge
ourselves. And as Sean Connery said,
That right there, is why.
Why we give ourselves new tasks and tick boxes, why we constantly
keep challenging ourselves with new goals and resolutions.
My goals change a lot and my resolutions shift from month to month
but that’s ok, because what I found out about me, is that by doing this I don’t
stay put and get comfortable in my life, but I keep myself motivated to go and
be the best version of me.
Below are my resolutions for the year of 2018.
· Improve my time management.
I have made a bunch of lists
already as well as detailed planners that section my life and you can find more
details about them in the Plan Your Life post on the blog.
· Be vegetarian.
Now this is something that has
been troubling me in the year of 2017 quite a lot. I aim to gradually reduce the amount of meat
products that I consume and replace that with soya meat and tofu so expect more
cooking posts in the near future.
The reason behind this decision is
quite extensive and I will be making a full post about the reasons that guided
me to this life choice.
· Spend time with my family and my friends.
For those of you that doesn’t know
it I only moved in UK in 2016 January 8.
It’s been two years and although I
am not regretting my decision at all, I do find myself to be left out at times
and it is easy to lose touch with people when everyday life strikes.
So, this year my goal is to get
one day of the week and call all my close friends and family and catch up with
them.
· Travel.
I believe my life purpose is to
travel the world. It has been something I have been wanting to do since I was a
kid and I have always been curious of other cultures and lifestyles. So, travel
is always in my mind and my heart.
· Be optimistic.
Now although I tried my best to
stay as much positive as I could in 2017, this year has been so rough on me
that I often found myself broken and in need to recalibrate myself and my
feelings.
I had to make a lot of changes in
my life and I can say with safety that I’m not done yet, but I really feel that
in 2018 I need to settle down and gather myself together again, so I can be
prepared for my future adventures.
· Workout three times a week.
I was never too much into exercising,
not even as a kid. I never liked running and despite my fathers attempts to
push me towards sports – aka basketball and volleyball- I persistently refused
to take initiative.
So, this is a new thing for me and
the last 7 months I’ve been into the whole fit lifestyle kind of thing I have
seen my body changing in ways I didn’t expect. I feel much better in myself and
that’s why it is something I want to do more on a regular basis.
· Read one book per month.
I am looking at my bookshelf and I
see about a dozen books that I bought and really want to read but I just never
made the time to read them. With my time management resolution, I am hoping to
get one book every month, twelve books in a year so that will then leave me with
no books left to read, bought in the year of 2017.
These where my resolutions for
2018 or until I update my list.
I hope that this year will be
beneficial for all of you and that you will have a lot of moments in your year and remember as Jim Elliot quoted,
“Wherever you are, be all there”
Happy new year!
