2025 Goals
January 1, 2025
Holy cow! How is it already 2025?! I feel like we just entered 2024. Time moves by so quickly!
Like last year, I am not wanting to see resolutions as much as I would like to set goals. The word goal feels like a lot less pressure than the word resolution, so that is the one I am using.
Here is a list of things I would like to accomplish ( or get better at ) in the coming year:
have the first draft of a book finished - this feels really scary and vulnerable to admit, but since there is little to no one reading my blog at this point, I feel like I can tell you, my reader, that I am really wanting to make writing a career, or at bare minimum, a more intense hobby
get better about stretching more and having more regular movement - I go through phases where I move a lot, and my body feels good, but then there are times when I move very little and stretch very little, and I dread getting back into movement because it seems so daunting, even though my body feels so much better when it is more active
eat seasonally - I would love to eat mostly from farmers markets and local marts, which means that I would be more likely to be leaning into what is in season and yummiest during that time
spend more time outside - being outside brings me life and I always feel so much better after I have spent a lot of time outdoors, even in colder months
read 40 books - in 2024 I blew my goal of 24 books out of the water, and I want to at least meet it this year - if not double it
get connected - for the past number of years, I have felt like nothing was really set in stone, or that I would be here ( or there ) terribly long, so I put very little effort in creating a community, and it is not helping me in any way shape or form; I deeply crave deep and lasting friendships
make clothes for myself - before it gets cold again, I want to crochet myself a sweater and, before that still, I want to make myself a sundress for the summer; two items of clothing are very doable
spend less time scrolling - while I have curated my instagram to be pretty uplifting, it is a time suck and I often feel like it was a waste when I could have been reading or writing or making something
I have created a mood board or a manifestation board - whatever you want to call it - on Pinterest.
2024 was a wild ride, and I have a feeling 2025 will be as well, so here is to another beautiful, wonderful, wild year filled with beautiful moments!
