January 1st is always the start of a magical time, isn't it? It's a time to refocus on what is most important and to make new goals for the coming year. It's a clean slate. My life changed in 2014 and I've spent a lot of time recently reflecting on the past year. At this time last year I was preparing to move to a new city, and both scared out of my mind and excitedly awaiting the future. There were difficult moments, no doubt about that, but I'm proud of myself for taking a risk. Now I have memories in this amazing city I wouldn't trade for anything. I have learned so much about being independent and I have a better understanding of what I want and who I am. I can only hope 2015 will be as exhilarating and fulfilling as the last, and just as packed with new experiences and healthy challenges. Here are the resolutions I'm making this January, to ensure this 2015 lives up to the hype. They are greatly inspired by a post on setting positive intentions that can be found on Free People's blog here.
- I will be inspired by knowledge, and continue to pursue my interests (art, blogging, web design, knitting) and to learn as much as I can about each.
- I will strengthen my body through exercise and yoga at least three times a week.
- I will be content in my own skin and not judge others, but instead focus on my own self improvement.
- I will search for a more satisfying career, one that will allow me to be financially independent.
- I will connect with and be open to new people, while nourishing my current friendships.
Cheers dear reader, here's to wishing you a beautiful year full of laughter, happiness, and love. Let me know your new year resolutions in the comments below.
