2024 Intentions

Monday Musing Confession journal diary 2024 intention goals new year resolution progress

Alright! Your girl is back! Took a bit of a break to enjoy the holidays with family and friends. Now I’m back in full swing ready to chat. Happy New Year everyone!

Man the beginning of a new year can be exciting, filled with hope and fresh starts. It’s a great time to get started on projects that have been put to the side or making lifestyle changes. At the same time it can seem daunting, a bit terrifying and cliche to try and set new resolutions for the year. Look I totally get it.

A few years back, I really fell into the trap of the latter. Putting all my ambition and motivation behind the one single factor that the new year would ensure I met my goals for that year. And personally for me, that never worked. I got into the mindset that I shouldn’t need a new year to motivate me to stay on track. Instead, I really should be able to pick up these new habits or goals any day of the year. 

Thus birthed my idea of intentions for the year. I would like to work towards each and if they weren’t completed by the end of the year, any progress was chalked up as a win. This is great and since moving toward this mindset, I have found myself meeting my intentions with much more ease. Guess this girl doesn’t operate well under the NY pressure lol. 

Which brings me to share my intentions for 2024:

Be a physical and mentally healthy example for my family. 

Watch less TV and read more. 

Experiment more with food, hoping to come across new staples in our household. 

Dance – missed her a lot in 2023. Time to go back and rediscover this creative outlet.

There are quite a few more but I think those as a whole capture my main goals. 

Do you have any resolutions or goals for the year? Drop them in the comments and let’s help each other keep progressing this year. 

Thanks for reading. Cheers!!!
