New Year’s Resolutions
Happy New Year Everyone!!! I hope you all had a safe and fun New Year’s Eve. Let 2013 bring you fun, love and laughter. I have come up with 5 New Year’s Resolutions for myself. Usually resolutions are a challenge but I believe the things I have selected will be attainable.
My 5 New Year’s Resolutions:
- Drink more water – My skin has been dry and flaky the past few months. I have not been drinking as much water as I should. My goal is to drink at least 7 glasses of water per day (might not be a lot for some but got to start somewhere).
- Exercise – 2012 was a bit of a lazy year for me. I felt like I didn’t have time to exercise but if you really think about it, you can always spare an hour here or there. My goal is to go to the gym at least twice a week.
- Declutter – I’m too scared to throw away anything because there’s a thought in my head that tells me ‘one day I might need this’. I keep everything from beauty packaging to high school text books. My goal is quite small but I will throw out all my empties and packaging.
- Be more social – This is probably the hardest for me. I’m going to work on being more approachable and friendly.
- Post regularly on the blog – My goal is to post 2-3 times a week.
Tips on attaining your New Year’s Resolutions:
- Set small goals – Don’t set goals so high you can’t achieve them.
- Focus on 1 or 2 resolutions at a time.
- Commit to it – Everyone slips up but the important thing is not to give up.
- Reward yourself for goals achieved.
What are your New Year’s Resolutions for 2013?

January 1, 2013 at 9:46 am (170 days ago)I also used to be afraid of throwing things out and became a hoarder! When I was running out of storage room, I decided to do a spring cleaning of all my things. I said to myself ‘get rid of or donate things I have not worn or used in the past 6months’. I ended up having bag fulls of things to give away or throw out! I felt really good after that. You should try! Hehe
Happy New Year!

The first step is always the hardest!! lol So after I posted this, I went into my room and threw away all my shopping bags (yes I hoard shopping bags too). I think the shopping bag hoarding started when I was young, my mum would tell me not to throw out the nicer looking bags so we could use it to carry other stuff.

January 2, 2013 at 5:48 am (169 days ago)i love your goals! i must remember to drink more water also – it is always easiest when i am at work because we are encouraged to do so.
kerker
January 2, 2013 at 7:02 am (169 days ago)Dustyn! I’m the opposite, sometimes it gets so busy at work I don’t drink any water or somethings I get too lazy to walk to the kitchen lol

January 2, 2013 at 1:25 pm (169 days ago)Haha, I had to control my water intake a while ago. I used to drink too much and too often. I need to continue clearing out things and controlling my spending on beauty related things! Happy new year and good luck on your goals!

January 4, 2013 at 4:15 am (167 days ago)Hi Just read for the first time via #TUST at Blogs and PR. I need to drink more water too. I can get through the day and end up with a headache that can be obviously fixed by drinking more water. I aim not to get the headaches and just remember to drink. Look forward to reading more.

January 11, 2013 at 1:30 am (160 days ago)Great goals, I have similar ones especially when it comes to drinking more water and throwing out things. Since mid December I’ve been making time for exercise (I’m usually the laziest person out!) and have been walking a stack every night. It feels so good to be doing something
