Monthly Goals: January 2017

Monthly Goals, , , , , , 19 Comments

I’ve mentioned before that I’m not a fan of new year’s resolutions. I feel like devoting an entire year to a handful of goals makes it easy to forget them or push them aside. Instead I prefer to set monthly goals for myself. I think this helps me keep track of what I hope to accomplish and actually go through with it.

This month I decided I would share my goals in the hope that it will keep pace with them. Depending on how successful I am, this may become a monthly ritual on my blog.

Write at least four blog posts a week: Having done a daily post for Blogmas, I feel like I should be able to accomplish this without much difficulty. I love creating posts and want to start off the new year with a lot of them.

Workout 4-5 nights a week: Working out has always distressed me, so hopefully I’ll be able to stick to a schedule.

Read at least five books: This one is pretty self-explanatory. I love reading and I believe this is a reasonable amount of novels to go through in the month of January.

Eat healthier: This is such a cliche goal to have for the first month of a new year, but I promise it’s been a plan of mine for awhile. I really want to make healthy eating a priority of mine.

Write in my agenda: Pictured in this post in my gorgeous new agenda for 2017! I hope I end up using it, but I can see myself forgetting about it in the coming weeks.

Thank you for reading. I wish you all a happy new year!

What are your goals for the month? 

Sincerely,

Paige

  1. I love this idea! If I had to set monthly goals, it would be to read 1 new fiction and 1 new nonfiction book this month (I already bought them), get in 3 glasses of water a day, and put more money into savings than I spend on makeup this month. 😀

  3. Great job with the goals! I think people who give up on their resolutions think too long-term and broad without any shorter goals/checkpoints. I hope you accomplish these goals! I want to develop a more consistent posting schedule, drink more water and less coffee, and floss.

    I am fascinated by the marvels our tiny planets offers as well as the antics of its inhabitants so you can be sure I’ll catch up with what you’re doing as often as I can.

    I look forward to our next encounter.
