When I look back I realise that even though the goals I set were achievable there are just too many of them. In the 2019 I definitely won't be setting as many.
BLUE = Done RED = Didn't
Me:
- Read more and share my reads on here
(I managed to stick to this one sort of as sharing my reads just started filtering off )
- Sort out my finances ( Didn't really happen)
- Get rid of clutter (Done, but on going)
- Meal plan
- Give blood
- Get a new tattoo (I got a beauty and the beast rose themed one )
- loose at least 2 stone
- Plan Blake's 4th Birthday party ( In December) in advance (Done but we did a holiday rather than party in the end)
- Write in my Happy Journal each day (Did well up until Ocober)
Blog:
- Increase my DA ( highest its been so far is 31) Got up to 35
- Join in with more linkys
- Focus on the Tactical Tuesdays linky I co host
- Grow my social media ( By the end of the year I'd love to have double the amount of followers with any luck) (Grown but definitely not double)
- Grow my views (stayed about the same)
- Get into a better routine of blogging
- Batch blog/ schedule posts
- More blog collaborations
- More sponsored work
- Be more blog organised ( I'm awaiting a planner I have ordered) ( ended up using the planner once and gave up)
Finance:
- Budget
- Put X amount of money away each week and 4 weekly
- Put a % of sponsored post money away into savings each time I'm paid
- skim my bank ( I make sure every week money goes into savings
- Do a weekly or weekend spending ban
- find ways to save more on bills
- find ways to make a bit more money
- save £1 coins into a tin
As a couple:

As you can see it's been very mixed on what I've managed to achieve.
