WOW!!! How fast has January gone?!?! Does any one else feel like it has gone by so fast??
If you guys follow me you will know that this year I am making a huge change in my life and trying to make a bigger commitment to my blogging and hitting my goals. If you haven't seen my post yet you can find that here if you want to have a read.
Month of Jan
As this was my first month of really making a bigger commitment to my blog and trying to achieve my goals I wasn't to sure what to expect in regards to my time and how hard it was going to be - all those kind of things.
I did break my goals down into mini goals for the month into separate categories and into goals that I thought were tangible so that I could actually measure against them for example how many blog posts I wanted to publish and how many times I wanted to get to the gym in the week.
Having these tangible goals really did make a difference this month and has made my goals a lot more realistic so I can see where I am headed and where I am wanting to get too.
With regards to how I did, I actually did much better than I thought I would, I didnt achieve everything that I set out but I am fine with that because I made a good dent into all of them and have learnt along the way of how to manage my time a little better - where I can allocated my time more efficiently and for that I actually feel very good about it.
Coming up....
Month of Feb...
I am going to be breaking my goals down into the same categories as I did for January being Blog, Fitness and other but just tweaking and refining the details a little more.
So for February I am going to aim to publish 7 posts, as last month I aimed for 10 which I didn't quite make as I had spent so much time working I could not fit it in. Hopefully now that I have lowered this slightly if I make this number it will be great and if I exceed this then that will give me more motivation to continue.
I will still be aiming to be posting on Social Media on Instagram and Twitter everyday - I have managed to keep up with this for the most part. My Instagram was lacking slightly as I did not post every day but managed to get something up for most of the month.
I am creating a Instagram schedule for myself so I can try and get a little more organised, so hopefully this will help. I will keep you posted on that.
On the fitness side I was ill for the most part of January so I couldn't get to the gym for the first few weeks, but managed to get back into it at the end of January. So I will be keeping my goals of going to the gym twice a week.
Other areas I included were reading 2 books per month which I did achieve in January which I was very pleased about so will certainly be keeping this on the list for February.
Hope this helped you guy and just give an idea of what I am doing to achieve my goals and the steps I am putting in place to achieve this. Bring on February and lets see what happens....
