New Year Resolutions 2025

My word this year is going to be "potential". Last year, I "embraced" what came my way and tried to accept that. This year, I was to know my worth, strive for excellence and rise up to be the best I can be. Having completed my Master's degree, I know there are professional achievements that are within reach, as well as a focus on business opportunities with both my blog, YouTube and beauty business. Most importantly, with myself as I have started to feel more optimistic about my future. 

After another difficult year, albeit better than the previous, I've chosen to make my New Year Resolutions for the year a little simpler. I have also decided I'm going to have some annual goals.

  1. Read 12 books. I really liked this goal previously and I think I'll try to keep this a regular goal with one book a month. I really want to get through some of my books in the TBR pile, as well as The Wish and The 7 Year Slip. 
  2. Have an official spa day. I think I want to make this an annual resolution with a luxury spa day and overnight hotel stay every year. 
  3. Travel somewhere new. Whilst I don't plan on a big trip this year, I still want to tick off another country on my list of places I've visited. 

  4. Build up stamina. After being so poorly and already being unfit before then, the long Covid-19 diagnosis has definitely recognised I need to be kinder to myself, however I do hope to get slightly fitter and healthier, with less breathlessness on simple movement. 
  5. Save money. After overspending last year on my travels and having some unexpected costs, I need to save up some money again for both more travels and for maternity leave. I was planning on going to Australia and New Zealand this year, but I think it will be the year after now, which will still be within the goal of before 30. 
  6. Complete the garden. I feel like I keep saying this but I still have a few things to do around the garden. I need to sort out the additional land, and make it pretty, then also paint the fence and pebbles.
  7. Sell old clothes. This was a goal I had last year which I failed to achieve but as I'm running out of space, I really want to sell them as a priority. 
  8. Donate my hair. This was planned to be for last year but after the company wanted a longer length, I had to wait a little longer. 
  9. Explore my sensuality. I may do a whole post on this soon but I've really started to enjoy feeling sexy and after my boudoir photoshoot, I definitively don't want that to be the peak. 
  10. Invest in myself. Like with my word of the year, I want to focus on myself and my potential in both work, life and extracurricular.
