My resolutions for 2015

So I’ve been reading new year resolution posts all over the place and I’ve been thinking about my own. Should I write another one? Should I just forget about it? Well, after thinking about it for a long time I decided it’s a great way to keep myself accountable by having it all out there and sharing my progress from last year and how I plan to tackle this new year.

So let’s see how I did with last year’s resolutions:

1. Get organised
I’m actually pretty proud of myself on this as it was a biggie. I’m nowhere near being Martha Stewart but I’m doing good.

2.Switch off once a week (or more)
Another big one and although I did not follow through with the once a week goal I did switch off far more than before.

3.Carve out time for music practice every day
Kind of sad about this one. My band is no more and I kind of let myself go with that one. (Insert sad face)

4.Stop being a slob!
Ha! I always laugh when I read this one. I actually did good on this one too, still not perfect but I have established a solid weekly cleaning schedule so I’m super happy about that.

5.Simplify
So happy about this one too! I did a major purge of my belongings around spring and it was so liberating. I plan on doing more this year too.

6.Meditation & Exercise
I had set a goal of daily meditation and sadly I did not follow through with that. I did meditate more often than the year before but not as much as I wanted to. As far as exercise goes I started doing yoga in the middle of the year, three times a week and I’m now at a great point where I’m ready to introduce some other form of exercise too.

extra blogging resolutions:

Don’t be afraid to expose more of my personal life on the blog.
Craft and create more!

I think we’ll all agree I did good on both of these!

So this year my goals are to:

1.Get organised (even more!).
2.Switch off once a week.
3.Practice music three times a week. A bit more realistic than every day.
4.Meditate every day.
5.Get back into drawing/painting and photography.
Extra blog resolutions:

1.Share more.
2.Create more.
3.Cut myself some slack.
I need to remind myself that missing a post every now and then is OK!
