2025 Goals


Another year, another set of goals that I’m finally going to crush. Last year was an odd year for me, but I did manage to cross several goals off my ‘to-do’ list and I know this year I’ll be able to tackle most, if not all, my 2025 goals.

Blog Goals

 

-Be Consistent With Content

-Post More Creative Content

-Finish Updating Graphics

-Create/Update Lists

 

 

Reading/Bookish Goals

 

Tackle My TBR Pile—this is an ongoing operation. I’m still in the process of decluttering and organizing my books. I’m also being a bit more selective in the physical books I’m bringing in for review.

Limit Book Purchases—while I’m not giving up buying books, I am being more selective about the books I’m adding to my collection. I plan to use KU, Audible, and Libby then decide if I want to buy the book.

Read more non-fiction—I’ve been missing reading non-fiction and this is something I really want to focus on this year.

Return To The Classics

Branch Out

 

 

House

 

Declutter—I’m still in the process of decluttering but this is the year to get it done. I will never be a minimalist but I do want to get a bit more organized and, let’s be honest, no one needs an entire kitchen drawer of random utensils they’ll never use.   

Landscape The Front Yard—I wanted to tackle this last year but the drought made it impossible. Finger’s crossed, this is the year.

Replace Bookshelves—I still haven’t tackled this one and now I’m leaning towards having customized, built-in shelves installed.

 

Personal

 

Create a Work/Life Balance—this is my number one goal this year. Because I work from, it’s so easy for me to get caught up and work until the wee hours of the morning. For my physical and mental health, I must keep to a set schedule.

Unplug more—this is something I need to do for at least 30 minutes a day. My ultimate goal is to have a device free day once a week.

Get Out More—I need to get outside more and take more walks (weather permitting).

Remember to take my vitamins—I’ve been using the habit tracker in my Happy Planner for the last few years and it’s been working to remind me to take my vitamins.

Learn something new—I’d like to learn/do/make something new at least once a week.

Drink more water—I’ve been doing a decent job with this but I this year I aim to do better.

Be More Creative—my goal this year is to draw or paint daily. I’ve also picked up a few daily writing prompts and I plan to complete a prompt each day.


Feel free to share your goals so we can root each other on!
