Oh the classic goals lists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
I probably have notebooks<\/a> upon notebooks<\/a> full of goals; short-term, long-term, daily, weekly, monthly, etc. But, no surprise \u2014 the goals that are written down do not often get accomplished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the past year goal setting has not been a priority in my life. I’m just trying to get through the day and make it to the next one alive. So in 2021, that’s going to change!<\/p>\n\n\n\n So there you have it, five short-term goals, all helping me live my life and supporting my long-term goal. Make sure to follow my two Instagram accounts to continue to follow my journey on these goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Suggestions on how to achieve these goals are also appreciated!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Read all my 32 Day Blog Challenge<\/a> posts by click here<\/a> & don’t forget to subscribe below.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Day 27 of my 32 Day Blog Challenge; 5 short-term goals I’d like to achieve. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"Day 27 of my 32 Day Blog Challenge; 5 short-term goals I'd like to achieve.

<\/strong>In the past I’ve used Trello<\/a> to set goals & tasks for myself; it has worked great since it does sync with my Google calendar & Alexa<\/a>. Also, the mobile app is easy and real-time updates, so I can hop on my Mac at the end of the day to see any tasks I’ve made on the go.
I want to do a little more research; because I want to make sure whatever platform I decided it integrates with; Google calendar; Alexa<\/a>, Slack<\/a>, etc. Also, has to have a great app for me being on the go.

This one is a daily struggle; that does keep me up at night & is a continuous conversation in therapy. For the most part, my house is sustainable; we have biodegradable trash bags<\/a>, we recycle EVERYTHING<\/strong>, we reuse containers from other food, we use reusable containers, we do not use single-use items, family cloth<\/a>, etc. We upgraded our compost bin<\/a> this year to help lower food waste. Before fruits and vegetables turn rotten, I turn them into cubes to add to sauces or smoothies.
However, I struggle with product packaging! Why does everything come in packaging you cannot recycle. Sometimes I really do just want a bag of bad chips, and the worst part I don’t feel guilty about eating the chips after it’s the bag.
I also, found out that we have to switch our Quip<\/a> toothbrushes because the heads are not recyclable. This one REALLY<\/strong> bumbed me out.
My goal for this is to continue with what is working; while trying to change packaging buying and find a new toothbrush.

Over the past year, I’ve been good about boxing up items that we do not use, we’ve outgrown, or just no longer want. I want to continue on this path.
To help declutter I’ve purchased clear bins, of different sizes, from IKEA. Each bin is labeled, for example; Christmas, and only Christmas items can go in this bin, and if the bin cannot shut I have to pick what to remove and sell to have the bin shut.
Facebook Market Place now offers to ship with listings; which has helped with decluttering. Also, still going strong selling on Mercari<\/a>.

In Day 17: A Long Term Goal<\/a>, I mentioned my long-term goal was; Stepping away from those who do not celebrate my wins<\/strong>.<\/em>
To help achieve my long goal I must first take a step back, take a deep breath and ask myself \u2014 do I really need this or them in my life<\/em><\/strong>?

<\/strong>Every day with my coffee I make a daily to-do list; usually in my head, but I want to expand on that. I want to do a 15-20 minute daily brainstorm and write things down. I use to do this with blog post ideas. I stopped because the majority of posts never went anywhere, and I felt defeated. With that blog posts stoped being posted, and I just gave up.
I purchased two new notebooks just for ideas; one for blog posts & another for items for my Etsy shop. I want to expand on both. More DIY projects and recipes for the blog. Not only more cards for my Etsy shop, but stickers and digital downloads.
I love offering digital downloads for free<\/strong> on my blog, but I’m to the point I want to start charging at least a dollar or two.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
