What I'd Like to Achieve this year



Happy New Year to you all, I hope all your hopes and dreams come true this year. I know I am a bit late in wishing you all a Happy New Year, but I took a bit of a break whilst I was off work to spend with my boys. We had a great time together and I will blog more about our Christmas and birthday festivities over the next week or so. Today I thought I would concentrate on my New Year’s Resolutions or should that be goals?

I am not one for setting goals for myself. I mainly just write to do lists, but I thought I’d give it a go.

  1. Be positive about myself. In both my appearance and mentally. Hoping one day, I feel like I am a good person, friend, wife and mother.
  2. Spend more time just playing and being with the boys and not feeling like we have to be doing something together or going somewhere. I hope that realising it’s my time that is precious to them and not what we are doing. Moreover, I would be with them always if I could.
  3. I am usually a much-organised person but I feel I have taken on too much and instead of completing one thing well, I am all over the place and done bits and pieces everywhere. I would like to streamline things like the blog, book reviews, etc and try to be more organised.
  4. Complete the decoration work that needs done in the house, left over from getting the new double-glazing fitted.
  5. Write more of my novels concentrate more on writing and actually complete my work in progress.
I am sure there are more I would like to be doing but that list is starting to get a bit big and a bit daunting so I’ll stop here. I feel I let my family and myself down a little last year with taking on too much and I want to fix that this year. I don’t want to give anything up, but I just need to prioritise better. My writing fell by the way side and I love to write, if I ever want to achieve my long-term goal of being a published author then I need to write.

I hope to take my blog to the next level whatever that means. I hope you all join me for the ride as I couldn’t get through or have done all of this without you.

Do you have any resolutions, goals or something else for 2012?
