Rather than wait for January 1st to set my goals for the coming year... I'm getting started now. No time like the present, right?
Some of my goals are blog oriented, while others are more about improving myself in one way or another.
I also want to continue to work on improving my photos... food and family photos. I've got a food photo book that I started reading, but haven't finished yet. I know that if I just break out my camera manual and begin playing with the different options, I can definitely create some fabulous photos. I've always loved the way photos tell a story, and that's what I'm shooting for in 2013.
Now, for the hardest goals to stick to... self improvement. Everyone can use a little improvement, right? I'm starting off 2013 a few pounds lighter than I started 2012, and I plan to continue the downward trend as the year progresses.
Eating healthy the majority of the time... I'm not perfect, so I'm not going to pretend that I can be 100% healthy... I do love my chocolate and other treats, but I will limit them so that they will be more special when I do indulge.
Exercise... yeah, this one I was off to a fabulous start last January all the way through most of March... then, I fizzled and just couldn't get my motivation back. I don't want to lose that motivation this year and having hit the treadmill the last 2 days, I know I'm headed in the right direction. To start, my goal is to exercise at least 5-6 days a week for a minimum of 45 minutes. I don't have to do it all at once, but I do have to do it. I feel better when I exercise regularly... and not so much when I don't. There is definitely some truth to just getting up and doing it.
Me time... another one that I've let slip. In a home surrounded by the male species can lead a girl to overlook things that she needs... like reconnecting with girlfriends for an evening. I haven't done as much of that in 2012, but I do have a girl's night out planned for later this week to kick this one off early for 2013. I'm also thinking we need to get a regularly scheduled date night in each month... not just me alone time, but also me alone with My Husband time!
So, there it is... my pre-New Year's Eve resolutions! I'm going to be sharing the healthy living and self-improvement goals on Wednesdays along with jump-starting the Eat.Live.Be. posts that I've done in the past.
Hopefully, you will stick around and share your tips and what you might be trying to do in the coming year.
