As we all know, 2020 has been a crazy year. However, 2021 is here now and it’s time to make some changes. We may not be able to change everything but we can start with ourselves. One thing that I started doing for the past few years was writing down my list of goals for the year. Most of the time, my goals are small which make them easy to achieve. My list is usually short and sweet. After writing them down, I put my list away but always refer back to it throughout the year. That way, I’m able to cross a goal off that I have achieved or remind myself of what I want to do. Goals aren’t always easy to accomplish, whether they’re big or small. It’s all about having the time and dedication (and sometimes the finances) to achieve them.

What’s some of your goals for the year? If you have not written anything down, take 10 minutes to yourself and try to think of something that you’ve been wanting to do. By the end of the year, you can reflect on the changes that you’ve made. Trust me, it’ll make you feel so good to know that you dedicated some time to yourself. Also, don’t get discouraged if you did not achieve your goals by the end of the year. You may look back and notice that you didn’t complete a goal but you did start working towards it. This may be something that you transfer over to the next year. Just remember that change comes gradually. Looking at how far you’ve come, is a great result into becoming someone better.
