What I Want To Accomplish for 2019

Welcome to 2019! Yay! Whoo-hoo! We survived last year, and hopefully we can make this year better. Anyways, I wanted to personally share what I want to accomplish for 2019. I normally don't share these, but I thought, "why not?" So here are the things I want to conquer in 2019!

• To have written over 100 plus short stories / novels (with me an aspiring writer, I would love to accomplish this. It would make me feel even more proud of writing skills).
• To get over my fear of getting a tattoo (really would like one or two- I want one inspired by Demi Lovato's bird tattoo, and the other is inspired by the infinite quote from Perks of Being a Wallflower).
• To walk more with both of my doggies (walking to me is a good way for me to care for my mind / wellbeing and to track my Fitbit steps / do more exercise).
• Discover Tarot Cards + do an at-home proper (non-witchy / psychic) reading (I got inspired by a YouTuber I watch- Kalyn Nicholson- to get some of these; even though I'm a bit iffy about this subject matter, I'm becoming more interested in it).
• Journal a lot more (with writing, I can get things out more; with journaling, it feels like I'm releasing a lot more out of me. Plus journaling is just fun overall).
• To take better care of my sleep pattern / get to bed earlier (I'm bit of a night owl, and I want to do what I can so I can have a proper night's rest). 
• Reduce the amount of plastic I use daily (plastic is in everything; I want to try to bring my reusable bags when I grocery shop, bring my reusable water bottle, buy more foods with more recyclable/reusable packaging, maybe learn to compost, and be less wasteful with my cotton rounds / face wipes when I do my skincare routine. Just be better for the environment which isn't a bad thing if you think about it).
• Experiment with trying new things I find everyday in life (i.e.- music, food, TV shows / movies, etc.)- I always like to try new things everyday but the little things each day is what makes the day even better.
• Practice longer meditations (up to 30 mins?; meditating is the best tool for me, and if I can practice it for even longer that would be fun).
• Zipline (I've always wanted to do this and get over my semi-fear of heights).
• Learn to love more, judge less, and not let other peoples' opinions value mine (I've got a terrible habit sometimes of being judgmental and I want to lessen than down a bit; in the world today we always have an opinion on everything and I don't want it to get to me too much. Have a better outlook from that opinion. With me being single, I want to value the love I recieve daily with those that love me- friends, family, etc. Because love makes the world go around and ultimately makes the world a better place. Without it, the world would suck and we would all be sad. So more love in 2019!)
• Read more books and practice gratitude daily (I'm bit of a book worm, and I love to read so reading more wouldn't be such a bad thing. And learning to take in gratitude daily and to do my daily gratitude journal. Writing things down that make me feel grateful ultitmately have a good impact on  how my day will add up to be).

So, what do you want to accomplish for 2019? Lemme know in the comments.

We will make this year a good one, and we will fill it up with love, peace (which the world so desperately needs right now), and balanced out harmony. And to take the time out this year to better ourselves mentally, physically, and spiritually. 

What are you waiting for? Go out and chase those goals / dreams! 

See you in a future post!

Love all of you wonderful humans!
