Personal Goals 2019 | Lifestyle | Breakfast at Lilly's

I feel like I say this every single year but man last year feels like it just came and went in the blink of an eye. 2018 was a really great year but I’m so ready for 2019 to be an even better one.

Last year instead of setting to yearly goals I set 27 goals before I turned 27 so I’m going to be recapping that list instead of 2018 personal goals so let’s dive in, shall we?

Become consistent with going to the gym and make it a habit // Unfortunately, this didn’t really happen but what can ya do? This is something I really want to get into this year.
~~Participate in a Whole30 challenge~~
Drink more Water // Nope, I’m really embarassed about this one.
Do a deep clean of my entire life // I did a pretty good job at this but I wouldn’t say I was 100% successful which is why I didn’t cross it off.
Replenish my emergency fund // I have slowly started to build it back up but I’m not happy with how slow the process was so this was half completed too.
~~Get rid of any clothing that I no longer love //~~ I still have a few things to get rid of but I think I did a good job at getting rid of clothes this year.
~~Read 12 Books //~~ I read 17 books before my 27th birthday and I am super happy about that.

~~Get on a better working schedule~~ // I still haven’t perfected this of course, but I have gotten a lot better about how much I work.
~~Collaborate more with online business owners //~~ Yes, I did a lot of this in 2018 and it was amazing.
Travel to a new place // I actually didn’t go anywhere new this year. I did travel but it was to two cities that I had already been to haha.
~~Focus on doing more of the things that I love //~~ I read a lot more this year and did so many more things that I enjoyed. It was nice to not feel like I had to work 24/7.
Stop overthinking everything // Although I didn’t completely quit my habit of overthinking, I feel like I certainly improved it.
~~Say no more often //~~ I totally got better at saying no this year. Its still tough for me to do since I am a people pleaser, but man was it good for my sanity.
