Hi there! I took another hiatus for personal reasons at the end of February and all of March but I am back for April with fresh new content and a new posting schedule! My new schedule will be every Monday and Friday and I hope, an increase in some Insta-content in between!

Back in February, I set myself three attainable goals for the month. They were simple and I was able to achieve them by making small changes to my routine and I would consider the month a success! I enjoyed myself so much I decided to set 3 more goals for April!

1. JOURNAL AT LEAST 4 TIMES PER WEEK

When I was a kid I filled diaries and journals with my thoughts, hopes, and dreams. As I got older I spent less and less time filling the pages. I used to carry a small notebook with me everywhere I went and would use it to make lists and plan blog content and every now and then I would go on a brain dump spree where I would write down anything that came to my mind. These little sessions always left me feeling more relaxed with a little more room in my brain to process the things that were going on in my life at the time. I’ve had a lot on my mind in recent months and I know that adding journaling to my routine will help to clear my head.

2. TAKE A PHOTO OF SOMETHING I LOVE EVERYDAY

In an attempt to practice gratitude in a different way that writing a list and to capture more memories, I want to take a photo of something I love or something that brings me joy everyday for the month of April.

3. READ FOR 30 MINUTES AT LUNCH TIME

I am trying to find more time to do things that I enjoy and using at least 30 minutes of my hour lunch to read seems like a great place to start!

Do you set goals for yourself every month or do you just do yearly goals?
