New Year is just around the corner (or, for some of you, it has already arrived), and it’s time to prepare for new beginnings. While I believe we don’t have to wait for the new year to start something, I understand the appeal of fresh starts and the blank canvas that a new year brings.
This time, I’ve decided to keep things simple by focusing on three core areas of my life that I want to improve in 2024.
📚 Reading 30 Books
My personal best is 45 books in a year, and while I aspire to read 50 books, I don’t want to put unnecessary pressure on myself. I’ve realized that I can become overly competitive with myself, and setting a goal of 50 books might distract me from enjoying the reading experience. So, for now, I’ll stick to a more attainable goal of 30 books.
🏋🏽♀️ Exercising Thrice a Week
I love swimming and would ideally do it every day, but it’s not always feasible. As someone who is naturally thin, I should focus more on resistance training. In 2024, I plan to be more mindful of my exercise routine. While I do exercise sporadically, there are times when I skip for various reasons. To start, I’ll commit to exercising three times a week, and I’ll adjust as needed. Taking action is more important than relying on motivation when it comes to developing a consistent exercise routine.
✍🏽 Blogging Weekly
My blogging routine has suffered greatly, and I want to change that in 2024. I used to post once a week, but since taking a break in May, I’ve only been posting once a month. While breaks are necessary, I’ve realized that blogging brings me true happiness. So, in 2024, I want to be more intentional with my time and prioritize my desires. For now, I’ll commit to posting once a week, every Sunday. Stay tuned for new blog posts!
That’s it! This year, my focus is on being proactive and taking action. I tend to overthink and be more theoretical, so I want to develop my practical side. In 2024, I’m embracing the motto of “outcome over intention.”
Thank you for reading, and I wish you a happy new year! May 2024 be a prosperous year for all. I’ll be back in the new year with a new post, and I’m excited for what’s to come.
See you on the other side! 👋🏽
Do you set New Year goals?

Happy New Year! I love your goals, and I have similar ones when it comes to exercising. I’m trying to make it into a habit so I don’t have to think (and rely on motivation) about working out… Let’s see how it works ahah! I wish you all the best for this New Year!
