If you haven’t already, I’d probably break these down into smaller goals, so they’re more achievable. Ask yourself “How can I achieve this?” and then set practical milestones so you can see your progress. :)My new years resolutions1) Stop Procastinating 2) Be more kinder/generous 3) Focus on improving mental health 4) Get sleep schedule together
in 2021, I’d like to:(These goals are broken down into smaller goals elsewhere.)Spoiler- get more exercise
- learn more things at work
- continue to improve the quality of my work (which I did a lot of in 2020)
- read more books
- continue the same self care that I did in 2020 (Recovery was a big thing, as I had a break up and a family member pass away.)
- reconnect with friends in person, taking into account COVID restrictions
- get better at my foreign languages (particularly both dialects of Chinese that I currently know)
- learn Vietnamese
- organise my sleep regime (I’m better than I was in uni, but still need to increase my hours asleep.)
- make it a habit to have less screen time each day where possible
- cook more
On New Year’s Day, I usually make a bingo card filled with small goals that I colour code according to larger, more nebulous goals e.g. “go for a walk” (colour coded a certain colour to indicate the more general goal of “exercise more”). However, I stopped using it midway through last year since the pandemic meant I couldn’t achieve quite a number of my goals e.g. purchase a dish from a restaurant I haven’t been to before to “try something new”. Despite this, I made a new bingo card that I hope to start today, with goals that have COVID restrictions in mind.
