A Much Needed Reset, or Redefining of My Goals In Life and Through This Blog
Do you ever feel like you need a do over, or a reset? A step back to reassess and start again? That is how I am feeling right now with a few things in my life and this blog.
The second post I created for this website was about the goal of the blog and my purpose behind it. I decided to revisit this idea and do a little reset. A reflection of where I’m at, and where I want to go, in comparison to that post back in 2022. If you want to go back and read the original post, feel free to; you can find it here.
So, let’s do some reflection…I started this blog and it has been a daily escape for me, or rather, the world of blogging has been the escape. The goal was always to blog daily on here. That hasn’t happened. One big reason is because I am a perfectionist, and don’t want to release something out of fear it isn’t perfect. Thus I remain motionless, or moving at a snail’s pace. While it is not a race to reach any destination, I envisioned being more consistent by now. I’m just being honest here.
I also, find myself making the same goals, or New Year’s Resolutions every year that I made the year before. Simply meaning, I am not finishing my goals, or meeting my goals. This has to change. I want more for myself, and I want to share more with you, my readers. (Am I the only one this happens to, or are any of you feeling the same way)?
When this blog began, I needed an escape from things in my life that had been sad. This blog was to be the start of something new, something great and positive. Something to help me to keep keeping on. To help me get past the grief and sorrow of the loss I had suffered. And this blog has done that. It is my escape. But I am needing a reset of sorts, to realign to my goals, and identify what’s working and what isn’t, in hopes I can move the needle in my life and actually achieve the goals I set out to do.
Now is the time to embark on a journey to self-growth, and becoming who I truly want to be. Achieve those goals I truly want to achieve. Why wait another day, another year. I should go for what I want right now, and so should you.
Curating My Daily Chic Life
Curate is a word I love because it envokes the idea that you control the outcome. Many people do not like the word curate because it signals that something isn’t authentic maybe, I don’t know. But for me, I want to be in control of my days, and what I choose to do with my time. Curating allows you to decide what outfit, what meal, what journal prompt you are going to do, and just about anything else you are going to do.
I am obsessed with curating and planning out my days. From outfits, to meals, to workouts, to meditations, and anything else I can curate about my days. So when I created this blog, it was about a curated chic lifestyle. It’s time for a reset to get back to that. A daily accountability source on the blog, my substack, and all my socials. I want to use all of my platforms for good and good growth; growing as a person.
It is high time to start doing what you say you are going to do. To become what you desire. So here is what you can expect from me in the coming days and hopefully as long as I possibly can…
A Daily Blog Post
The intent is to post a blog post everyday if possible. I love reading blogs that are able to post everyday. Now that I am a few years into this blog thing, I understand why many bloggers do not post everyday…it’s hard. Not hard as in hard to accomplish but hard as in had hard to get a post out every single day. But I am going to try to do it. My posts may be more personal or more essay but there will be research posts as well where I have done some research on a particular product or habit,etc. let me now what you think in the comments.
Chronicling Life
One of my favorite things to do is chronicle everything I have curated for the day. This is something I want to do right on this blog and my Substack and my socials. I also want to share what you would like to see as well. So share your ideas in the comments below.
Tips/Ideas
Overall, I want this blog to be a hub for tips, ideas, and a lifestyle site you can come to, to find what you are looking for. This hub will grow with time but not only a hub, but a community as well. I want this to become a community where we share ideas, tips, thoughts. A safe space for you to share and connect with other similar minded individuals. I can’t wait to meet all of you and watch this grow.
