Nothing fancy or overly aggressive, just the things that will make me feel better!
I’m starting the year with all of my kids at home. Unfortunately but fortunately, they will be returning to college soon so they can finish their academic year strong.
My husband, my 13-year-old, and I have had a blast with the older two being home. We ate and ate and adventured out quite a bit, but most of all, we soaked up alone time with just the five of us, well, six, because we must include Larry (our chihuahua).
But now that we are easing back into post Holiday life, I have to make sense of things and write out goals for 2023.
Now I’m not that certain about a few of these, but I’ll throw it out with a question mark behind it. The question mark represents the side of me that I want to do away with. I’m so damn indecisive, so maybe that should be on the list of things that must change about me. But I’m just not sure (see what I mean).
Goals for 2023
- Read 50 Books; I have ten on my nightstand waiting to be read.
- Blog every day; I’m on a 173 day streak
- Upload on my podcast once a week, maybe two
- Save 20% more than last year
- Lose 10 pounds of muscles on my legs; I lifted HEAVY last year
- Do Yoga two times a week
- Finish writing 1 of 4 books
- Put myself out there to meet like-minded friends (?)
- Read my Bible every night and listen to scriptures as I meditate in the morning.
- Be more adventurous
- Start training ten new clients (?)
- Schedule two vacations, one in the country and one out of the country
- Rip up the carpet on my stairs and get dark wood
- Give my kids a little more space (?)
- Make it to 2024; healthy, motivated, and ready to rock out another year.
My long-term path is unclear, so I’ll settle for taking it one year at a time!
Please share your main goal with me. I love reading what others are planning to do for the year.
You could have chosen any blog to read but you chose mine, and I’m honored!

Grat list, Belladonna. I share #8 and #10 with you.💕
Thank you! 8 and 10 are a little scary!
Yes they sure are.💕🙏💕
An inspiring list, Belladonna. Best wishes to you! How do we get to your podcast?
Thank you Michele. Happy New Year.
I will post it as soon as I finish my firsts podcast.
👍🏻😁
Wonderful! You can do it! Thank’s for share! Have a lovely time!
Thank you for believing in me!
Always a pleasure. You are amazing!
My main goal is simply a continuation of last year’s: be kinder to myself 🙂
Amen to that! That’s more than enough!
It sounds like you have some great goals to shoot for this year. Please have a great adventure while you achieve them.
Thank you Molly! This year I’m looking to feel the joy in everything I do.
Wishing you the best for the New Year!
Thank you so much! Happy New Year
Small steps…
Amen!
I always struggle with new years, this doesn’t look good. I’m a new addict, and I do speak out, write, post….but this year, what can I do?….Ukraine, Iran, Afghanistan, OMG, Afghanistan…I have connections to those there, NGOs, a group called right to play, I know people there that were trying to make lives better for women, for women that want to run….it’s beautiful place, but a horrible place….I think 2023, I want to become more active, writing, raising, donating for what I know is right….don’t know if I can help make changes, but it’s hard not to cry…Iran, killed for the way they dress..it makes any issues we have here nothing…..Lennon had it right, give peace a chance, but is there any place on this planet that is at peace?
Girlfriend, you sure are ambitious! I applaud you my dear friend. All I can say is go for it! What do you have to lose? 🤗🤜🏼🤛🏼😘
15 pounds! LOLOLOL
But seriously Thank you my beautiful sista friend, your support and encouragement is appreciated more than you know!
Oh my sweet Belladonna, you are so very welcome, as I appreciate your treasured support too. Keep soaring sistah! 😍🐱🏍🥰

Hi. Happy New Year. Wish you well. This year I decided to focus on 4 goals.
1. Completing both manuscripts
2. Complete my masters
3. Savings
4. Produce my play.
Oh WOW! This list is a list of a BOSS!
I love it.d
Great goals. Hope you accomplish them.
Thank you Sadje!
You’re welcome
Happy & Healthy New Year to you and yours! 🎊🥂🍾
Thank you Cindy! Happy New Year.
We have similar goals. I have an ever-growing pile of books to read so I want to make some progress this year. A writing streak also sounds great too but we’ll see. 😂
Can’t wait to see how well you do. Please goo on a huge writing streak and share it with us. Good Luck to you and Happy New Year.
This list is relaxing. My goals are kinda stressful, especially since I’m still young with a ton of things to do.
But I’m doing all of those things to achieve one bigger goal – life success. Hopefully, I’ll get to something this year.
Thank you for your post 🙂
Take one step at a time. I have teenagers and they are focusing on one major goal per year.
I’m trying to do so. The thing is adulthood is kinda hard, especially when you’re already responsible for a family and studying at university and working as well.
You have said A LOT!!!! Make sure you take time to close your eyes and just breathe. You have a lot going on!!!
I will try! Thank you 🙂
I should write a blog on what I did last year and will do this year……your blog is my inspiration. Nice post.
Thank you so much! I would love to read your blog of past and future events.
Those are all great goals – best of luck with them 🙂
My goal is to be better…
Thank you Simon!
That’s such a great goal and I’m striving for the same.
You’ll do it!!
Thanks for sharing your goals! It takes a lot of dedication to blog everyday. I haven’t got the time or energy to blog frequently.
Vanya it was difficult at first now it’s like working out, I don’t feel complete unless I do it. Plus it’s therapy and I love chatting with y’all so much. Thank you for being part of this awesome community 🤍♥️
Thank you for your wonderful posts.
🤍😍😍🤍
I’m so excited for you to achieve your goals! You don’t need to give me anymore space though <3
Yayyyyy!!! I wasn’t going to 🤣🤣
Oh my God! I loved the motivation and your vibe. The idea of 2024 preparation filled me with energy. Thanks for sharing your 1 year Goals 😊
You have made my night!!! Thank you so much for saying that. Your energy is awesome!
