Hello 2017!
Saturday, January 07, 2017
2017 is truly here and what a whirlwind of a year it has
been. I finished university, graduated - which lets face it was a challenge -
and started my first full time ‘proper’ job. It has been a huge transition
moving from student mode to full time adulating but I feel like I am finally
getting to grips with it, maybe.
Alas, the start of a new year means no more looking back but
lots of looking to the future. Usually I don’t make any resolutions, but this
year is different, it is the year of me and I have a few steps to help me along
the way.
1. I am going to sort out my eating and get back on
track. This time last year I was a successful member of slimming world having
lost around one and a half stone. I never got to my target weight so before Christmas
I re-joined and am going back to it with even more determination! Target weight
here I come
2.
As always the next step after eating healthy is
to get my ass moving. I am have never been a massive fan of sports but I am
going to start small with evening walks to get the blood pumping, actually using
the gym membership which I have brought last year to go to classes and maybe
joining my local park run. I am under no illusion that I will be amazing right
off the bat but it will be a slow process of becoming fitter.
3.
I want to embrace my hobbies this year and
rediscover my passions. Photography, sewing and dance are the key areas I want
to do more of this year. It is so important for everyone to find something which
makes them happy outside of work and friends. Something which you can sit down
on your own and have some calm time doing. I have somethings which I got
brought for Christmas which could help me on my way to becoming more accomplished
at these hobbies, if you’re lucky I might even post about them on here! Who knows!
4.
My final point is that I want to travel more! This
is both in the UK and abroad. I haven’t really traveled much in the UK as I grew
up in Kent, meaning any holidays we hopped over the English Channel into
France. This is the year I want to learn more about the country I live in while
experiencing all of the amazing places there are further afield.
Do you have any tips or tricks to help me on my way? Because
I might need them! So leave them in the comments below. Also I would love to
know all about your plans for 2017!
