I love doing these posts at the beginning of each month as it gives me something to check back on whenever I hit a bit of a slump. It's good for me to set a few goals that I hope to achieve because otherwise I tend to slack & tell myself I can do it tomorrow instead.
One - Be more creative. You may know from Twitter/Instagram that I've been hanging out with Becca & Jodes this week, they've been staying at mine & seeing them both work so hard on their content has really inspired me to get going again. This afternoon I had a huge photo session with them & absolutely loved working around other creative people. It was such fun to bounce ideas off each other & see what the outcome was!
Two - Look after myself. I've been feeling very low about my appearance for a long, long time & I'm so fed up of feeling this way. I am desperate to get my teeth fixed so that I can smile with confidence, it's been on my mind for years but I never get round to booking a consultation because I'm so ashamed of the state of them. I also could do with changing my diet, not in a drastic way but less sugar & perhaps a bit more exercise would probably make a difference to my energy levels.
Three - Read a new book. Reading is one of my favourite pastimes & I definitely need to take more time out to curl up with a book. I have a huge stash of unread books that I need to work my way through!
Four - Finish our bedroom. It's so close to being complete now it just needs a few final touches & then I'll be happy. I'm having a little makeup station built into the alcove this weekend & our floors could do with another layer of paint. Our bedroom is even better than I imagined it to be so I can't wait for it to all be done, I might even do a bedroom tour if anyone wants to see!
I loved starting last month with a goals post, (May Goals) it gave me something to look back on when I was feeling demotivated so I thought I would continue it for the month of June. June is going to be an extremely busy month for me & when I think about everything that is going on I feel overwhelmed. It's all exciting stuff though, I just need to be extra organised to pull it all off!
One - Continue working as much as possible on my blog. Last month didn't go to plan at all & I've now got a broken MacBook but I am powering through & using Doms Windows laptop to get some posts finished. I'm one of those people that is never happy with their own work which is why my blog posts are so sporadic, I am trying to stop being so hard on myself though & let of those feelings. We will see...
Two - Make more of an effort to eat healthier. I'm not going to suddenly switch up my diet completely but I am feeling more sluggish than ever recently & I know one reason is down to my diet. We get lazy & order takeaway too much or I'll snack on huge chocolate bars throughout the day & never want to eat a proper meal.
Three - Improve my photography. I love taking photos but it also stresses me out at the same time. I'm a big believer of practice makes perfect so I'm going to stop freaking out over photo taking sessions & concentrate on what I'm doing instead.
Short but sweet, those are my goals for June. Now I'm off to pack my suitcase for a fun mid week trip away with the Pugs!
