Happy New Year – 2019!

Happy, Happy New Year! And just like that, it is the beginning of a brand new year!

Houston Rodeo is practically tomorrow…well no, not really, but the lineup is released tomorrow!!! And for some reason, I cannot wait! I convinced (or did I?) Jose to take me this year. Here is to hoping Drake is performing.

I think this is year #7 of writing down my goals. I do this to help me remember the promises I made to myself.

I highly recommend you to try it. There is something so powerful about writing your goals on paper.

Yes, I believe there is a lot more that goes into actually reaching your goals, but I think it is a good first step.

To hold myself accountable, I do weekly, monthly, and quarterly checks. It also helps me whenever I am feeling uninspired or unmotivated. That said, to give you glimpse of my goals this year, here is my list:

My 2019 Goals

  1. As of January 7th, I will give up alcohol for 62 days. I hope this does not make me sound like an alcoholic!
  2. This year, I will work on my best beach body yet.
  3. This year, I am focused on my blog more than ever before.
  4. This year, I am determined on spending more time in Houston.
  5. This year, I am eating less cheese – I will only make the exception of eating it on the weekends.
  6. This year, I am reading one book per month minimum.
  7. This year, I will push for more Texas road trips.
  8. This year, I am determined on reading the bible.
  9. This year, I am becoming more present and intentional.
  10. This year, I am traveling to South America.

That said, I am working on my vision board. I will hang it on the back of my closet door to serve as a daily reminder to kick ass every single day. I am pretty excited since I have not done one since college!!!

If I could choose one thing for you to take away from this post is, write down your goals. You will not regret it.

I wish you a year full of grace, happiness, prosperity, growth, and an abundance of LOVE! Thank you so much for reading and once again, happy new year!
