My New Years Goals

Hello and happy Tuesday!  In today’s post, I’m sharing some of my personal goals for the new year.  I’ve never been one to make a big deal out of my yearly goals so I thought maybe publishing them would give me accountability in (hopefully) achieving them.  Let’s get into it!

I’m breaking down my goals for 2018 into three categories: physical health, mental health, and spiritual health.  As far as physical health, I’d like to make myself go to the gym at least four times a week.  Throughout my years in college, I was constantly driving back and forth between Virginia and Maryland, traveling, doing schoolwork, and a million other things so I wasn’t able to make going to the gym a priority.  Now that I have more of a set routine, I’d like to get back into working out!  Another goal that goes hand in hand with going to the gym is eating better.  When I get busy or stressed, I tend to make some unhealthy food choices and that’s not good in the long run so I’ve been thinking about trying meal prepping.  Has anyone had success with it?

Moving onto mental health, I’d like to focus on being positive and consistent this year.  I wouldn’t say I’m a negative person but I definitely let people and situations get to me sometimes and I’d like to stop that this year.  Being positive with yourself and others is so important and my whole life could be affected by making a few small changes.  Being consistent goes along with that as well!  I’d like to be more consistent as far as being positive, going to the gym, eating healthy, things like that.  I’ve learned that I thrive when I’m in a routine so I hope making an effort to be more consistent helps me succeed in the coming year!

As far as my spiritual health, I will make a point to go to church more often.  Throughout college, I went when I could but if I got busy, it was always the first activity I canceled.  Thankfully, I had other religious organizations that poured into me during the week but none of them were the same as a church service and I miss it!  I just moved (moving blogs coming soon!) so I’m in the process of finding a new church to call home and I can’t wait to get more involved.

I’ll keep you updated with my how my goals are playing out as the year progresses!  Did you make any goals of your own?  Let me know in the comments.  Have a great week and I’ll see ya next Tuesday!
