Our goals for the year ahead

As the new year feeling settles in, Louise and I thought it would be fun to share some of the goals we’ve set for 2022. While we have similar goals, we also have different ones too – like I’m sure you do too.

This post is just a little fun, but it’s also around in case you’re thinking of setting your own. Anyway, let’s get straight into our goals.

1. To write a poem every day (a shared goal with Lexie)
2. To finally write the book I have been planning for the past two years
3. To reduce my phone time
4. To increase time spent with those I love
5. To learn to live without the constant need of distractions
6. To get better at responding to messages
7. To learn to accept myself
8. To be okay with not being perfect or what people expect me to be
9. To get out of the house more and create small adventures for myself
10. To learn how to make a really good loaf of bread
11. As well as some other foods
12. To continue my yoga and exercise practices
13. To create a healthy night time routine
14. To prioritise things that make me feel fulfilled and content
15. To create a balance between university and the rest of my life
16. To get to the end of 2022 and feel proud of myself
17. And to accept that it is okay not to be able to practice these goals 100% of the time, that they can ebb and flow throughout the year and do not come with a time limit

1. To train for an ironman (and hopefully compete in one)
2. To write a poem every day (the shared one with Louise)
3. To stretch/do yoga every day – even if it’s just for five minutes
4. To read 2 books a month
5. To create a healthy relationship with food + start cooking more
6. To create a money-saving routine and actually start saving
7. To create a flexible exercise routine that works for me
8. To create and stick to morning and night routines that benefit me
9. To write more often and freely
10. To do as best as I can with uni – creating a study routine, achieving the highest possible grades I can
11. To do something new every month
12. To work living more sustainably
13. To camp/hike/explore more often
14. To become consistent with blogging/youtube
15. To learn shorthand
16. To enjoy life more
17. To swim 100km in Feb for the Starlight Super Swim

Just a short little post, hopefully, to help inspire a better year ahead – for ourselves and for you.

If you set goals, what are some of the goals you’ve set?
