My new year goals for 2018

As much of a 'goal setter' I am now, I used to not be. I used to be embarrassed to 'make goals' and thought it was 'tacki' or silly, but that was because I didn't know any better and I grew out of that phase of my life, thankfully hehe. Or maybe I just grew up, right? I find a lot of people are shy/embarrassed to announce or set goals at first, until they realize, yes it is normal to set goals, we all have a few that we strive for on a regular basis whether we want to realize it or not.  One thing I also realized about announcing or properly setting goals is that you'll feel more comfortable with the idea of 'goals' when more people around you are setting and working towards goals. Your goals will feel supported, encouraged and welcomed, which leads me to another important part about setting goals, surround yourself with people who support you. You'll be motivated for the long run with a strong support network. 

Here's what I'm working on for 2018:
  1. Stretch more. Stretching is a big one for me because I have the ability to get tight easily and when I get tight, I ache. So I'm naturally motivated to work on this. However, just like anyone else, I have my ups and down with motivation to stay consistent. I did a great job with my stretching last June for #spreadyjune, but after that ended, I took a break from long stretch sessions because I purely, wore myself out. This year I don't think I'll do too many 30-day in a row stretch challenges (that's what #spreadyjune is about) and I'll focus on long stretch sessions a few times/week but all year round, so that I don't lose my motivation. This year I want to continue stretching out my quads, hip flexors and back as a prime focus. We'll see how I go!
  2. Go camping and hiking more. Yes, camping, with a tent. I've got the gear and I used to go a lot, but over the passed few years it's slowly drizzled away. I'm planning a few camping trips over this beautiful aussie summer to make the most of my camping gear because I miss it and it's about time I prioritize it!
  3. Wake up earlier. Ugh totally easier said then done! But so far I've managed to start the year off waking up earlier, so fingers cross it's not just a phase and I can stick to it. My motivation to keep this up are my very long days and sometimes I don't come home until 9pm or later, which means I don't get to spend much time with my partner. By waking up earlier, I'll not only be able to share a coffee with him in the morning, but I'll hopefully achieve more during the day, so that I can arrive home earlier to spend time with him.

What are you New Year goals? I hope this can be a great example that your goals don't always have to be about health and fitness and that personal goals that make you happy in spirit are just as important! Feel free to share your goals below in the comments, I'd love to know and cheer you on throughout the year!
