seven things that I hope to accomplish in 2016

1.05.2016 - Leave a Comment
As you read from my 2015 recap, last year really wasn't a bad year. Sure, I lost my best friend, and there was some surgeries, but besides that stuff, we did have alot of fun on family vacays, I accomplished alot on my 30 by 30 list (which is turning into a 35 before 35 list), and I turned the big three oh. But with all of that, I didn't accomplish everything that I had wanted to do. So instead of making a list of my resolutions and goals for the new year, because lets be honest, by Feb 1, they will all be broken, I am going to share seven things I hope to accomplish this year. Personal Wise:

one // land that high paying job so I can afford my gigantic student loan payment
Don't get me wrong, I love my job. I mean, I seriously love my job, and if the money that I had borrowed for my education wasn't coming into repayment in the very very near future, I would be ok with staying for a bit longer. It gets me out of the house, it's not super demanding, it's flexible, I don't come home "mother fucking" everything about it, my co-workers are awesome, and my boss is pretty cool... but the money just isn't there. And when you are looking at a $300+ federal student loan payment, then you gatta do what you gatta do. Even if that means leaving the first job that I have absolutely loved behind.

two // buy a house
Living in a one bedroom apartment that's attached to my Grandmother's house has it's perks... nice neighbors, free utilities, low rent... but that's the problem- it's only one bedroom and it's me, my hubby, and a five year old; plus a few animals. Saying that we are crowded is an understatement.

three // to make a budget and stick to it
I have been talking about this for way too long... seriously way to fucking long. I just need to get off my ass and make it already. Then I need to stick to it. Especially if we are going to buy a house...

four // to focus on one thing at a time and live in the moment
This one is going to be a hard one. As a mom that works a day shift outside of the home, I am constantly having multiple on top of multiple things on my mind at any given moment. Especially being a blogger. My hope is that I can have fun with my son and not think about posting on the blog, or worrying about the laundry/dishes, or be able to go to dinner and have a positive attitude because my family is more important to me than anything else.

five // to remember to take my makeup off at night
This is a super simple goal, I need to do it. I need to remember to take my makeup off at night, because a) my face is horrible right now, and b) I claim to be somewhat of a beauty blogger.

six // to get rid of things that I don't need and stop being a makeup, clothes, hair care, etc, hoarder
I am planning on doing a purge this month, and it's not going to stop there. I spend way too much money on makeup, hair and body care products, and clothes, and I will be going through everything. But unless I am absolutely in love, or out of my FAVORITE product, no more will be coming in. Let's see how long this one lasts...

Blog Wise:

seven // to stop being a douche
I may have to explain a little... whenever anyone asks what is the best advice you can give to someone who is just starting out in the blogging world, I always say that "they need to be social, to comment, to encourage, and to produce good quality content". I have been doing none of those things. I will admit that I have been a hypocrite. Whenever I sponsor anyone, it's like pulling teeth for me to fill out my spotlight posts and forms, and let's face it, my content lately, just hasn't been there since I started working... in March. Yeah... so my goal is to take my own advice and if I wouldn't want to read something, then it won't be published. If it's a tutorial, and can't go viral on Pinterest, then it doesn't need to be out there. Along with this is to produce a blogging schedule. Because not being consistent is a douchey move to my faithful readers, and anyone I choose to sponsor.

I wish I had more goals that I want to accomplish with the blog, but I think that one is enough and is the most important one.

Do you have any goals or anything that you want to accomplish in 2016?
