My Intentions For 2020


Admittedly I am not together with thus great on novel twelvemonth resolutions. Knowing that I made some "half-year" resolutions for 2019 and I was 3 for five for personal together with 2(ish) for 3 for the blog. Which isn't that bad but since it was exclusively one-half a twelvemonth together with I never followed upward on them, I'm non chalking it upward every bit a win. 

So this twelvemonth I'm calling these my intentions. My intention is to produce something. If I don't, that's ok too! Just a small-scale alter of the give-and-take tin actually alter everything. So I experience less pressure level (by myself) but I direct maintain already started committing to some of these below together with I'm pretty excited close it! 

And btw, I turned off weblog comments for this year. I together with thus dear an appreciate everyone who has taken fourth dimension out of their busy lives to comment but the spam comments were merely getting to live on every bit good much for me to handle. It was all day, every day, multiple times a 24-hour interval together with ain't nobody got fourth dimension for that. 

Personal:

1. Flossing (and no, non the dance) -- I merely had my outset dentist appointment inwards years (I know, I KNOW) together with 1 thing nosotros learned: I demand to start flossing. BUT I HATE FLOSSING. I form of empathise why it's of import but I merely don't desire to produce it. I don't similar to produce it together with it's merely non fun. So my Dr. recommended getting a H2O flosser and I form of sort of splurged on 1 that night. 

H5N1 lot of the systems out at that topographic point were pretty large together with bulky together with I'm already running out of infinite inwards my New York City bath together with thus I decided to pay a piddling to a greater extent than together with acquire a wireless 1 without the huge tank attached. Plus it came inwards navy together with thus I thought it would live on real "me."

2. Church -- This is awkward to utter close every bit I don't actually utter close politics, religious belief or electrical current events much on here, but it's constituent of my plans for 2020 together with I gauge it deserves a mention. I've never been a large church building go-er inwards my life until college when I establish an amazing pastor together with congregation that was to a greater extent than my style. I recall it's considered a megachurch, but it was real new-aged, it spoke to me, together with something I could follow together with relate to. 

I attended their college service (Sunday nights) until I left schoolhouse together with haven't actually been dorsum to whatsoever church building since. I don't necessarily missy going to church building because when I recall of the give-and-take "church" I recall of all the places I've been that I haven't liked. But I missy this place. So I've decided to scout online together with follow their services from New York inwards hopes of filling that void.

3.  Podcasts -- I've establish when I am abode together with demand to produce tasks (like cleaning), Podcasts are really helpful inwards doing so. Ideally, I volition halt watching together with thus many YouTube videos (which I acquire distracted by, no affair how much I tell myself I don't) together with start listening to to a greater extent than podcasts together with maybe audiobooks. I'm on the hunt forthwith to discovery educational podcasts close finance, self-help or business. And the excogitation is to assistance portion what I larn every bit well!

4. Getting Dressed -- Ok this sounds weird, I KNOW! But hear me out... Since working from abode I've establish myself merely wearing my PJs (not actual PJs but similar Nike shorts or travail pants/shirts that I also have on to bed) or workout clothes all day. I mean... it's so comfortable. But it mightiness live on messing amongst my productivity during the 24-hour interval AND I direct maintain this entire cupboard total of amazing items, I should have on them more. I'm getting the hang of it but I direct maintain to tell you, I'm non a fan of wearing jeans unopen to the house! It's foreign but I should pretend I'm a normal soul inwards today's society!


Blog:

1. Daily Outfits -- I desire to portion to a greater extent than of my daily outfits amongst y'all guys on hither together with on Instagram. I would tell close one-half of my weblog posts are "real life" ones that I've worn together with one-half are styled for the post or for something specific (like dressing for the office, wedding, appointment night). I promise that this volition live on something y'all guys like!

2. YouTube/Videos -- I am very hot together with mutual frigidness amongst uploading to YouTube (I direct maintain similar 10 videos I recorded together with never posted) because I loathe editing! My MacBook Air merely can't accept the storage or processer to edit together with and thus this weekend I am off to merchandise inwards my desktop for a Pro! Then hopefully I tin commit to a 1x calendar week video uploading schedule. I promise to also portion some to a greater extent than on IGTV together with TikTok every bit good over time!

3. Changing Up Where I Shop -- I wasn't really sure what to telephone phone this but the thought is that I'm going to mensuration exterior my norm of Nordstrom, Lilly, J.Crew together with expand mine (and perchance yours) horizon amongst clothing. Ideally finding to a greater extent than budget-friendly items without compromising together with buying fast fashion. I never actually made a large annunciation but I stopped shopping at the actually bad guys inwards fast fashion similar Gap, Zara, H&M, Forever21, together with Old Navy concluding twelvemonth (only bought 3 things all year, including my Zara transcend that I merely bought secondhand).

I love to purchase longer-term investment pieces, store at local/US-made together with eco-friendly stores but those come upward amongst a higher toll tag together with I'm merely trying to live on to a greater extent than witting of it. So I volition attempt together with show/wear/find improve stores amongst lower prices when I can!

4. Reviews -- Judging yesteryear concluding year's analytics, y'all guys love reviews (you tin banking firm check them all out here). Either production or brands you're all close them -- plus, they are evergreen which is non bad for SEO. I'm hoping to direct maintain some close affordable workout clothes, best every 24-hour interval flats, my Mott together with Bow jeans, best white t-shirt, AirPod pros, best bras + workout bras together with things similar that! I would dear to hear whatsoever suggestions y'all direct maintain or desire to see! Feel gratuitous to electronic mail or DM!

5. Lifestyle -- I actually desire to acquire into to a greater extent than lifestyle together with my day-to-day products on here. Like I LOVE Tide laundry detergent. Did y'all know that? Do y'all care? I direct maintain together with thus many wonderful products that create upward my life that I want to portion amongst the basis together with what improve house than this weblog lol. I will, of course, live on sharing fashion + beauty every bit good but I'm hoping to expand my verticals into to a greater extent than lifestyle content this year. 


I promise y'all are every bit excited every bit I am for the twelvemonth ahead!
