2015

Hey!

So I'm sure you're all aware 2015 is upon us. It's crazy for me, because at the beginning of 2014 I was a completely different person than I am now.

If you haven't already made a new years resolutions list, here's mine. I call my post list New Year's Goals, not because I don't need to change, but because goals for me are something you can achieve.

SO HERE ARE MY GOALS FOR 2015

Drink More Tea
Exercise every day
Eat Healthier (more fruit, more vegetables)
Explore more of Colorado
Find a good place to write
Do something creative every Day
Go on more adventures
Read More good books
Choose to Be Happy, Every Single Day

So there are my goals. I tried to keep it as simple as possible. Feel free to take some, if not all for our own new yea'rs goals. 

I also compiled a list of things to remember in 2015. This year I found myself crying and freaking out over things that simply did not matter. 

 

SO HERE ARE SOME THINGS TO REMEMBER NEXT YEAR

1. Inspiration is everywhere; you just have to look hard enough.

2. You are the author of your own life. If you don’t like your story, change it

3. Everything happens for a reason.

4. Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise. 

5. Live the life you’ve imagined.

6. You’re going to be left out, talked about, lied to and used. You have to decide who is worth your tears and who is not. 

7. Choose to be happy. It drives people crazy. 

8. Let go of who you’re supposed to be and embrace who you really are.

9. Life isn’t always beautiful, but it’s a beautiful ride.

10. Don’t sweat the small stuff. None of this will matter in a few years.

11. Always watch the sunrise, the sunset and always look up at the stars at night. 

12. You don’t need anyone to be happy. If you’re lonely, go hang out with friends.

13.  Go out of your comfort zone.

14.  Life is too short to have everything perfect. 

15. Keep an open mind

16. If someone’s in the past, chances are they deserve to stay there. 

17. Never let your fear decide your fate.

18. Make new memories every day.

19. Stay strong. Make them wonder how you’re still smiling. 

20. You always have a choice. 

21. You are beautiful.

22. Stop worrying about things you can’t change. It’s a waste of energy. 

23.  Time can heal anything. 

24. Seize opportunities when they reveal themselves

25. Always be grateful. Say thank you whenever you can.

26. Be nice to everyone. 

27. Live. You are only in high school once. Do your school work, but don’t forget to enjoy yourself. 

Again, feel free to steal some, if not all. I think its important to have a list of quotes that make you remember it's going to be okay. 

Comment some of your new years goals below, and some good books to read (I haven't exactly read a book since this summer)

Thanks!
