Hello October! This is my ‘get shit done’ month; I’ve resurrected my bullet journal, planned a thorough to-do list and I plan on tying up some loose ends and picking myself up after such a busy year of travelling, wedding and celebrations!
01. Find my groove. As I said above (ALLOW ME TO ELABORATE), this year has been crazy. When 2017 arrived, I did not expect to get married, sign to management, visit New Zealand again and do a couple of US trips too! I’m still trying to get to grips with everything, especially because I seem to really fall behind when I travel a lot.
I’m excited to say I don’t have anything big planned for the rest of the year, which also means it’ll be my first Christmas in the UK in a few years (and as a married gal too!) and my first ever Christmas without my parents! Mixed feelings about that last one.
If there’s anything you’d like to see more of, maybe not so much here but definitely more on YouTube, do let me know. This is my month to get that channel of mine sorted once and for all!
02. A little relaunch. My blog has been in dire need of a new design for… well, ever really. I’ve drafted up mock design after mock design trying to find the perfect one for me, and I think it’s almost taking shape. I’m being such a perfectionist with it, which I guess is a good thing – but it does mean it’s a long, slow process! Again, any feedback or anything you’d think would work, let me know.
03. Rest up & relax. I’m going to treat this month to get my mind and body in order, I hopefully won’t have too much on, so I really want to embrace this quiet period and really find myself a little.
I usually would just snuggle up in the evenings with a book as my relaxation time, but I’m thinking of trying something else. Maybe a class or something… what do you guys do when you need some time out? I’d love to take up a new project that I can do at home, but one that doesn’t require much thought or effort!
I’ve promised myself that October is going to be a quiet month, so that’s it from me in terms of goals! Sometimes you just have to take a step back and go with the flow.
Do you have any plans for this month?
