Cheers To The New Year

As we move into 2021 I'm hoping this year will be much better than the last. 2020 was nothing short of interesting, so I'm hoping to get back to some sort of normalcy. I'm excited to hopefully be able to leave the stressors and uncertainties behind in 2020 and begin moving forward and making better strides towards a beautiful future.

I like to always  start my year off by making goals. I write a detailed list down in my journal of at least 10 things I want to achieve for the year. This allows you to really focus in on what it is that matters to you, and create realistic potential achievements. I then make a fun, captivating visual in the form of a vision board, that get's hung up on my wall. I absolutely LOVE vision boards and I swear they really work. I highly encourage you to look into the law of attraction because I swear, ever since I have begun doing vision boards, I've seen more of my goals and dreams come true. 

So for this blog post I wanted to share some of my goals with you! Keyword... some. Yearly goals are a really personal experience. They should also be really specific; contain exact dollar amounts, incorporate exact people, and essentially just contain measurable outcomes. Basically, there's a lot of precise numbers and outcomes I have on my list that may bore some of you so I'll keep it uncomplicated.​

​1. Travel!
My first goal of the year is to get back into traveling! I had so many trips planned for 2020 but, COVID-19 definitely put a halt to this. When a world wide pandemic strikes traveling for fun just isn't an option. I sat at home for long enough! Now that travel restrictions are letting up, attractions are opening again, and the virus is more under control, I'm getting back out there and seeing more of the world! I already have one trip planned for February. Don't worry...nothing major... I'm not even leaving the state.

​2. Enhance FASHMIRA
Over the past couple of years you've been able to see FASHMIRA  grow and become more than a hobby on Google's Blogger platform. My goal is to continue to enhance FASHMIRA. Blog posts will become much more frequent! I feel like I say this every year but it's happening! This past year I launched a couple of products and by the end of 2021 the goal is to have a whole lot more, so get ready! When it comes to measuring my outcomes I want to increase subscribers, (HOLD ON! are you subscribed? Go ahead and drop you info at the bottom of this post ​don't worry I won't flood your email I swear!) increase overall pageviews, increase my social media presence, and increase sales! I have so many visions for FASHMIRA and the work has begun!
​
3. Develop New Skills
The third goal that I want to share with you is my desire to build up my skills. Despite the negatives of the pandemic, one great thing it gave us was time. I want to use my newly gained free time to learn new skills. One big thing I want to tackle is the art of photoshop. I learned how to do minor editing but now I want to dive deeper into it to really master editing. I also want to learn more about video editing so I can potentially begin to bring you all some video content. Lastly, as I dive deeper into the art of event planning I want to learn some new techniques so I can heighten my event planning offerings. These are just a few of the skills I really want to focus in on this year.

​4. Self-Love
Lastly, I end this blog post with my desire to continue to pour into myself. I'm letting go of things that no longer serve me. I'm only allowing peace and growth to flourish within. One of the quotes that I live by is don't worry be happy. Whenever someone asks me how do I see myself in the future or what do I want out of life. My response to them is always "To be happy." We can make all these goals, achieve all of these things, but if we aren't happy then what are we truly doing everything for? My goal is to always chase and strive for genuine happiness.
I decided to take self love one step further and be a little more intentional. This year I will be celebrating my birthday monthly as opposed to just on June 13th. Out of 365 days so many of us only really celebrate ourselves 1 day out of the year. When everyday truly is a gift to us and the others around who get to experience us. So on the 13th of every month it will be my birthday and I will treat myself to something special and make sure overall is a great day where I treat myself like the princess that I am. However, it doesn't just end there, this whole year will be committed towards heightening the love I have for myself. I will surround myself with people who make me happy, put myself in places that make me happy, and treat myself to things that bring me joy.

​These are just a taste of some of my goals for the year. Remember I said you have to have at least 10 to really make it effective! I encourage you all to come up with some goals! I hope mine have helped you envision some of your own goals for the future. I'd love to hear some of your goals in the comments below. I hope you all are able to redefine your purpose. while you navigate throughout the year. Cheers to 2021 my dears!
