2017 goals from blogging to budgeting

I’ve been thinking of what goals to set myself for 2017 and I have come to the conclusion that I don’t want to set any that are completely measurable. That way I am not pressuring myself and I can feel satisfied with whatever I achieve. So here are my 2017 new year’s resolutions: 

 I said this in 2016 but I am really setting my focus on blogging more regularly this year. I have been devising a schedule in my diary for how many to write a week, and how many to post a week. I’ve found writing a few at a time really helps me and means I can schedule them more efficiently. So I will see how this plan goes!

I’m going to be 27 at the end of this month and I honestly admit, I am terrible at financially budgeting myself. So I would really like to get to grips with my money saving skills this year. There isn’t a set amount I’d like to save, but I just want to feel a bit more of an adult and start saving for important future purchases.

I managed to visit Bruges and Amsterdam last year but I would really love to see at least one new city or country this year, even if it is a small city break.

I’ve noticed a lot over the last couple of years, I’ve shied away from the camera. It saddens me that when I look back there will be chunks of time missing because I thought I looked gross that day or I felt embarrassed to take a quick photo. Mostly it was because of my face acne and now that has pretty much cleared up, I really want to try and take more photos of myself and the places I visit.

My last goal for 2017 is to see more friends. I felt pretty isolated last year. To some part it was my anxieties that nobody wanted to see me, but when I opened up to a few friends about how lonely I was; I realised I’m not the only one feeling that way. It is super important to me to try and not feel like that again, but also to suggest to do things so that my friends never have to feel that way too. Whether it’s for a quick coffee or a fun event, I want to be ready to go out and have fun with those who mean a lot to me.

What are some of your goals for 2017? I’d love to hear them in the comments below. Maybe we can achieve some of these together!

TTFN!
