I know a lot of people are doing these right now, but hopefully you aren’t too tired of reading these yet! I am going to share some personal goals for 2013, as well as blogging goals. I am sure some these goals will change as the year goes on, but I still want to write them here for me to be able to refer back to and for you guys to see what I am aiming for this year!
Blogging Goals:
- Reach 400 Bloglovin‘ Followers
- Reach 1200 GFC followers
- Reach 600 twitter followers
- Successfully host my first giveaway!
- Include more DIY posts, since I love doing them and most people like reading them
- Add a signature to the end of my posts
- Add a blog button that others can grab on the side of my blog
- Add categories at the top of my blog to make different posts easier to find
- Create a newsletter
- Create a survey to help me know what YOU want to see more of
- Update my media kit
- Blog at least twice a week every week (gonna be hard some weeks!)
- Try GIF’s on my blog for something different
Personal Goals:
- Keep my room cleaner and more organized
- Work harder this semester to get better grades
- Get an actual job, even if it does take away from blogging
- Keep an open mind
- Exercise every day. Not because I need to lose weight, but so I can gain strength and muscle
- Run at least twice a week in the summer even though I hate running
- Make at least 1 healthy decision every day
- Finally get a car!
- Have quiet time for 15 minutes every day
- Take shorter showers (yes, I take FOREVER in there, especially when it‘s cold outside!)
- Quit watching pointless shows on TV
- Continue doing at least 1 random act on kindness everyday
- Start playing the piano again and become better at it!
I also do want to share with you guys about something I am doing this year. Starting January 1, every time something good or funny happens, I am going to write it down on a piece of paper, fold it up, and put it in a jar. Then at the end of 2013, I am going to reread all the tiny slips and be amazed at what a wonderful year I had and how blessed I was throughout it. Sometimes we forget the little things that helped us get through the year, but this year I don’t want to forget a single thing.
Don’t forget to tell me in the comments some of your resolutions, or link a post you did about your goals!
And guess what?! I already completed one of my goals… at least part way. Here is a preview of what I believe my new signature will be!
