SETTING GOALS FOR THE FUTURE...

I think it’s a good idea to have something to work towards, which up until recently I didn’t have. I just went with the flow, which seemed to work for a while but as I ~find myself~ more, I realise that sometimes it's good to have more of a plan in place – if only to inspire us to be better and do more! Here are a few things to consider...

"I TRY TO DO THINGS

THAT WILL HELP ME

OUT IN A WEEK, A

YEAR OR EVEN FIVE

​YEARS...

THINK OF THE BIGGER PICTURE
​
It’s so easy to live in the moment, but I think we can definitely be better at planning for the years ahead too.
I like the idea of always trying to look after our future self, as well as our current self! I 'try' to do things that will help me out in a week, a year, or five years – and I can apply this to so many areas of my life, such as exercising and wearing SPF, to saving money and being better with my taxes.

Setting smaller goals could definitely be beneficial here, the kind of goals that add up over time and before you know it, you’ve made some progress without even realising. A lot of this for me is being smarter with my money (time to delete the ASOS app), challenging myself to take some risks and being able to delegate tasks so I can get more done!

WHERE DO I SEE MYSELF?
This is a hard one because I have days where I want to do something completely different, or to up and move to New York with a moment's notice.

Realistically though, I remind myself that I’m happy where I am right now, but what should I work towards in order to achieve my future goals?

It’s these “where do I want to be in five years?” moments that not only help us make decisions a lot of the time, but also know when it’s time to sit tight and wait things out when we're being impatient.
There’s a time when you realise you have to take action, and other times where you have to ride it out.

STAYING MOTIVATED
Figuring out what motivates you will help you to really think about what you want from life. Personally, I’m not really motivated by money or success, but I do want a nice life that is fruitful in other ways.
I have the tendency to get bored easily (Sagittarius, yo) and start and stop projects without committing to one fully. As long as I'm aware of that, it helps me to keep myself in check.


KEEPING BUSY WITH OTHER PROJECTS
I’d love to consider other projects alongside my blog. One thing that I find frustrating about it is that it feels like after a few weeks, the posts that I worked so hard on are gone. I would love to write a book or develop a range of homewares in the future, something tangible. It's important to be open to exploring other avenues.


FITTING IN THE FUN STUFF
In the last year or two I’ve definitely come out of my shell a lot. I’m saying yes to a lot more opportunities that come my way, which I never would have done before. I know I’ll always be a homebody, but having a reasonably full diary is something I’m learning to love!

These changes in my mindset have definitely given me a kick up the butt, I’m feeling so much more inspired and motivated to make a difference now I’ve really thought about what I want and broken it down a little. Everything seems a lot more achievable now I have some smaller goals in place too.
