Looking back at 2013, it was an incredible year! If I had to highlighted it:
- I got fired for the first time in my life- my position was eliminated, and the feeling was worse than a bad break up, thankfully it had a happy ending.
- I got a job at Coca-Cola, a company that I had dreamed of working at forever.
- Left everything behind and moved to the middle of the country with my husband in Kansas City.
- Got a job at one of the biggest companies in the world, Google.
- After many years of prayers, I got 2 new little cousins. Miracles exist!
- I reached my goal weight for the year. Still have a lot left though.
- I happily turned 26!
I don't believe much on the typical new year resolutions. It's almost like setting yourself up for failure when you promise yourself that you would lose a lot of weight and become the person you have never been. What I do believe in, is taking baby steps to make changes in your life towards what you really want, and having fun! After some thinking, this is what I want to accomplish in year 2014:
Since I will be turning 27 this year, I wanted to go with the theme:
- 27 volunteering hours - it's good for the soul and the community
- 27 new things to try: foods, activities, sports, experiences... - working on my goal to get old and say "Been there, done that!"
- 27 pictures of yoga poses I can accomplish - a fun challenge that promotes health too
- 27 videos on my YouTube site - will work to practice my accountability and time management
- 13.5 pounds less - of course I have to keep working on my mission to get "sexy hot"! (divided that 27 in half, to be realistic on my goal)
- 1 trip out of the country - this is a no-brainer for the past couple of years already
- Become a US Citizen! This is the year!!
I'll be blogging on my experience... here we go 2014. Bring it on!!
Eat, Love, Adventure Out,
