5 Lifestyle Changes I NEED To Make This Year

Some things in my life, and maybe yours too, are not how I want them to be and they need to be changed and thrown in the bin never to come back again. I want some major lifestyle changes this year and to go back to my healthier and happier self.

February Round Up & March Goals

So that was a pretty crazy start to welcome the new season, right?! It's funny how this country reacts to a storm like storm Emma, some places it's understandable but others it's a little bit of an overreaction. Although it is amazing that yesterday it was -1 degree and we were wrapped up in our gloves and scarves, and today it's nearly 10 degrees and I'm wearing just a light jumper. Does that mean spring is around the corner? I am so ready for spring, warmer weather, less layering up and the pretty nature (especially all the bluebells!!)

Self-Care Blog Posts You NEED To Be Reading

Lately I've been on a blog post marathon, reading so many different posts from some of my favourite bloggers, many of which I have been following for a few years now. And you know what I thought? Why not share some of these incredible reads in a blog post because they're what I think everyone needs to have a read of. 

January Round Up & February Goals

Well, January is finally over - dragged on a bit didn't it? It felt like it lasted for months and months. If each month will be as slow as January then we're in for a long ride this year. 

6 Habits Every Blogger Should Adopt in 2018

I have been wanting to make a post like this for a while and since it's a new year what better time to start putting a few of these into place.
Us bloggers are guilty of missing a few things out, comparing our success to others and complaining about many factors in this industry. It is a tough industry to be a part of but there are a few ways around it and they are a lot more simple than you think. There have been so many posts lately about the blogging drama that has been happening and the best thing I choose to do is ignore all the hate because it will only cause myself to get angry and I feel I could end up falling out of love with blogging if I keep letting it mess with my head. I admire all of those bloggers speaking out about issues and the determination they have to fight against those who don't quite agree with the blogging industry and I back them 100%.

4 Skills You Develop as a Blogger

Blogging can come across as quite a straight forward job; you write about something of your interest, take photos and then publish - if only if was that simple. So much goes into a single blog post but you don't necessarily see behind the scenes. You're constantly having to come up with fresh content, create and edit photographs, newsletters and emails, staying connected with the online world through various social medias; it really is a lot of work which people don't tend to realise. Through doing this all you gain numerous skills and develop these as your blog grows.

December Round Up & January Goals

And that's a wrap 2017. Happy new year everyone and hellooooooo 2018! Wow it's already 2018? Is it me or does it still feel like it was 2012 yesterday? Crazy how time is flying by.

December Goals

Hello all, it's been a while but I'm back and ready to get things going again on here. A break is always needed when you're having a bit of a hard time and no need to feel pressured to get back to it until you're 100% positive you're ready. It's taken me a few weeks to properly feel like I'm getting back on track and can sit down again and write away. Although saying that, I only have about 4 or 5 ideas for blog posts so it's going well.

10 Happy Things

There's a few things that can lift my mood in minutes and I'm so grateful for them. I need that boost every now and then to realise what I have around me and how lucky I am.

I'm happy to be back at university, I'm ready to get back into work mode, I've returned to my normal blogging schedule and happy with the posts I'm writing. Sticking to this positivity state, I thought I'd mention a few things that have made me happy recently or that always make me happy.

Spending Quality Time with Yourself

Freeing up time to sort yourself out, focus on yourself, laze around, or perhaps doing some other work is very important as it allows you to have a 'time out' from your family and friends and also your 9-5 working life.

Things that keep me Inspired

Finding inspiration is a topic which has often popped up now and then on social media between bloggers, discussing how we stay inspired, where we find our inspiration and who inspires us. There were so many answers being thrown around that it gave me more ways to help myself out. I thought I'd share with you how I get inspired and where my inspiration comes from.

August Round Up & September Goals

Can this year just take a break and slow down please? As soon as we know it it'll be Christmas. I am soon to be returning back to university for my final year *deep breathing* and it will be time to knuckle down and kick final year in the ass!

Unmotivated and Frustrated

It's been roughly two weeks since I blogged. I'm not saying that is a good thing or a bad thing; a break is always needed from time to time. However, I say to myself that it is a bad thing because I don't really have any excuses to why I haven't been drawn to the blogging scene.

July Round Up & August Goals

Can someone explain to me how it's August already? You know what that means though...my birthday's coming up! July has been a hectic month to say the least, but it definitely went past like a rocket. Over July I returned back to the UK, went back to work, then quit work, started to properly focus on my health, caught up with all my friends and family and had zero time to relax...no change there then.
I'm so looking forward to August just because I have lots of exciting things to look forward to as well as taking some time to properly relax and enjoy some quality home time before the hustle and bustle starts again from my return to university life.

July Goals

Looking back at my post on why it is important to set yourself goals to reach, I thought I would start sharing my goals that I occasionally set myself. I'm going to try (it may not last) to set myself goals each month to either improve on, not necessarily achieve, or hit the target, maybe even past it. I have set myself goals in the past but not the proper way. I would say to myself "I'm going to save money for this specific thing" and then I end up spending that money on something utterly irrelevant to what I intended on buying. So this is it. I'm going to motivate myself to achieve these positive things and hopefully get a good response from them.

The Importance of Setting Self-Goals

Having time in life to focus on yourself and you're achievements should take priority over most things. These goals will motivate you to keep going and produce great outcomes in life. Doing this will boost your confidence and allow you to continue believing in yourself that you can still do it.
