2016 RESOLUTIONS

January 7, 2016 By Kari 15 Comments

Making to-do lists (or any list for that matter) has always been something I love to do. Whether I’m making a grocery list, a Sunday chore list or a  “must see in San Francisco” list – I always feel a sense of accomplishment when I get to mark off a task and see the progress I’m making.

Unless you share an obsessive crazy Type-A personality like me, then you’re probably a little confused and I would be, too. But, needless to say, making New Years Resolutions is something I never seem to forget to do. While it definitely takes more time to create than say a grocery list, I have finally completed my list for 2016 and am excited to share it with you:

PERSONAL:

  • Be more present | less screen time
  • Travel more | 30 miles away or 3,000 miles away
  • Work out at least 3 times per week | #weddingbod
  • Simplify | donate 2 bags of clothing per season and remove any unnecessary “clutter” in the house

BLOGGING:

  • Attend 2 blog conferences this year | network and build lasting relationships with other bloggers
  • Create and stick to an editorial calendar | scheduling is the key to consistency
  • Post more regularly | stick to quality over quantity
  • Film beauty-related content | create a YouTube channel, perhaps?

What are a few of your Resolutions for the New Year? If you’re open to it, please leave a few of them in the comments below – I would love to hear! (Maybe we could hold each other accountable, too!) xo

    Oooooh I love all of your resolutions! Especially attending 2 blogging conferences, as I would love to do the same but I doubt I will have the potential to do it since I travel so much already throughout the year! adaatude.com

    We are on the same page for so many of your resolutions! I have so many clothes I want to donate and just have not done it… definitely working on getting that accomplished soon! I really need to develop an editorial calendar too!!

    One of my 2016 New Year’s resolutions is to strengthen my relationship with Christ and hear his voice. And to also strengthen my relationship with family and friends.
