#lavinewyear Lavendaire 10 Days of Growth: Days 1-4
Lavendaire (I have trouble spelling Lavender, and that follows through to Lavendaire, I keep wanting to add a’s instead of e’s) is the first Youtuber to get me motivated to just plan my life. I think it was the end of 2018? She just has such a feminine, calm aesthetic and tone which I love… Continue reading #lavinewyear Lavendaire 10 Days of Growth: Days 1-4

2019 Goals: Financial and Career
My work history isn’t pretty. I’ve been mainly temping and will probably continue to do so for awhile, but is really not enough on it’s own. I’m trying to work on being more proactive and less dependent. I don’t know how to explain this all; I’m very tired of being given stale advice that is… Continue reading 2019 Goals: Financial and Career
2019 Goals: Systems
One of my resolutions this years is to add processes and products into my life to make things easier. Much of these ideas for routines and organization came from MuchelleB’s channel. Since I got my new phone, I finally jumped on the bandwagon to using Evernote. I’m so glad I need. I put my checklists for… Continue reading 2019 Goals: Systems
New Year Resolutions and Planning
I’ve spent a lot of time planning, several drafts of resolutions, goals, etc. I watched tons of YouTube, mostly MuchelleB for ideas and inspiration (last year Lavendaire was the go-to YouTuber) plus lots of AmandaRachLee and others (see my Pinterest board section for more of them) for the practical, physical planner pages. I’d decided on a… Continue reading New Year Resolutions and Planning
The New Year Tag for 2018
What did you do in 2018 that you’d never done before? I’m a hobbit, especially this year. I can’t think of anything major. Did you keep your New Year’s resolutions, and will you make one this year? I made a ton of goals and while I met some parts of the goals, overall I don’t… Continue reading The New Year Tag for 2018
My 2018 Goals
I have nine categories of goals. I’ve already changed some, and I’m sure others will be amended. Some items are hard to set in stone or I have/will learned of better options. Also, I will selectively edit what I choose to show, some of my goals are too personal or to uncertain for me to… Continue reading My 2018 Goals
New Year Plans
I read a couple of posts that mentioned that in order for a person to read his/her goals said person must plan out and break down goals (light bulb). Is this one of the most obvious statements ever? Yes, probably. But I’ve never made goals for anything, I’ve never planned really. I’ve made lists, which… Continue reading New Year Plans

New Years Tag What did you do in 2017 that you’d never done before? Drove downtown. Did you keep your New Years’ resolutions, and will you make one this year? I had four general goals which I wrote down and don’t have access to at this moment. I doubt I reached them. What would you… Continue reading New Year’s Tag and Links
Analyzing Yearly Resolutions or Goals: Conducting a Personal Review
How to conduct your own annual review. I would say this is only interesting if you are someone with a lot of irons in the fire or if you make and can keep specific plans. I do better with more abstraction, but if I get busier, this might be fun. This might work better for… Continue reading Analyzing Yearly Resolutions or Goals: Conducting a Personal Review
