Yes I’m very late with this, but it’s here. Finally… This post is more for me to look back at, as it publicly shames me into actually doing something about it. That’s dramatic; I know, but you get the idea.
Plus it’s nice to be able to set goals and reflect on them later, and it gives me things to focus on throughout the year which I think is important. Again, I know it’s late, but Happy New Year!
These are my 2019 Goals.
Buy Less Makeup
Yep, I’m clearly starting out with the most important one here… In all honesty I have too much and it’s becoming a bit of a joke. I don’t need anymore and I feel like I’m getting out of the hoarders/ collectors mindset of needing everything. Which my bank account is very thankful for. Of course this doesn’t cover necessities, but I don’t need another gold highlighter.
Learn How to Cook
2018 called, it wants it goal back… I’m sorry, that was terrible. You may remember this goal from last year, and if you don’t…. well, this is a goal from last year. I just want to learn how to cook, even if its basic meals. It’s getting embarrassing that I can’t cook. If you have any recipe recommendations then I’d love to hear them!
Exercise
Yes here we go, it’s this one again. The one that’s always on here and probably always will. I really need to start exercising more often, especially after Christmas. I really want to make more of an effort. I got in a good little routine in September last year, and I need to pick it back up. Hopefully 2019 is the year.
Declutter
In a bid to not use all of my goals from last year, I’m re wording. It’s definitely cheating, but we’ll just skip past that bit. I want to have a good clear out as I have too much stuff. I’m a hoarder, so you can imagine that it’s not the best. With last years goal I made a good start, but not as good as I’d have wanted. Hence why it’s here again.
Be More Proactive
This is a new one. By this I mean stop sitting back and letting things happen and take more action to actually do things. Instead of waiting for other people to organise things, I want to try to plan some things myself. This might not sound major, but I’m terrible for sitting back and waiting for things to come to me, when I should be taking steps to make them happen.
Be Active Online
I wasn’t sure how to word this one, as I don’t want a numbers based goal like last year. Numbers aren’t everything and they’re not my main goal. My main goal is to be active and blog regularly and update Twitter and Instagram more than once a week. This is because I enjoy blogging, but I barely did any last year. I also want to use my socials to be social and talk to more bloggers.
Those are my 2019 Goals!
Have you set any goals for the year?
Thank you for reading!
Buying less makeup has been on my goals for the past 5 years or so now!

haha, it’s difficult isn’t it?! Especially when there are so many fab releases xx
I feel like I haven’t fully settled on my goals yet. I need to narrow the list down to make it more realistic! Best of luck with your goals xx
It’s hard to pick isn’t it? I struggled with mine. I hope you’re able to decide on some. Thank you so much and the same to you when you get yours xx
I definitely need to start cooking more! I rely on UberEats and Deliveroo waaaay too much!
Chloe X
I hope you’re able to do it too! I’m so jealous, neither of them deliver to me haha!xx
I feel like cooking is one of those things where it’s hard to bring yourself to start but once you do it’s actually pretty easy. There is such a large number of places to get recipes on these days that I think you can find a fairly easy recipe for just about everything. I have a few goals at the moment but not many, just more general things I’m trying to do.
That is so true! It’s just getting started. I’ll have a google and see what comes up. Good luck with them xx
These are all fantastic goals, Hannah! I really like the fact that you’re being honest with yourself – personally I can’t cook to save my life but that is something I am not even remotely interested in because what I cook is not always edible lol But I hope you make more progress than me! xx

Thank you so much, yeah it’s got to be done. Haha, at least it isn’t just me! Thank you, but I hope you make progress too!xx
I’ve literally read this post like 5 times. Really enjoyed it

Thank you, that means a lot xx
Having a low buy this year and truly focusing and enjoying my already large makeup collection is definitely a goal of mine this year!
Good luck with it, I hope you’re able to achieve it!xx
Hahaha 2018 called and wants its goal back – love it! Your gonna smash this year!
haha thank you! Thank you xx
Great goals! I think you’ll do fab with all of them. I definitely want to be more active on twitter and instagram, I do post but I think I could be better with commenting and interacting more with others xx

Thank you! I hope you’re able to do, I’ve been loving your content xx
Ooh good luck with all of your goals lovely! I only have a couple this year, but mainly I want to achieve some blog goals xx
Gemma Etc. ❤️
Thank you! I hope you’re able to achieve them xx
These are all really great goals! For learning to cook I highly recommend using Pinterest to look up recipes! There are so many easy to make recipes on there that are really good. Best of luck with all of your goals; you got this!

Thank you! I’ll have to have a look, thank you for the recommendation! Thank you xx
Really nice goals and most important achievable! I really need to get on with exercising more this year xx
Much Love,
Elegant Duchess xx
Thank you, I’m glad you think so! I hope you’re able to get into it xx
These sound like great goals! I’m sure you’ll find by buying less that will help with the decluttering too! haha! I’m so bad at getting rid of things, so I find slowing my shopping helps as there is less stuff I’m adding to everything I own and my small little declutters can make more of an impact! 🙂
Hope that you are having a nice weekend 🙂 We spent yesterday on the bay celebrating Australia day – despite the heat! Our heatwave continues!
Away From The Blue Blog
Thank you! That’s true, hopefully with less coming in, it’ll be easier to manage. It’s hard isn’t it?! I hope you’re able to get into it.
Thank you, and the same to you! Ah, I’m so jealous, that sounds like such a great day xx
Great list of goals dear.

Buying less is definitely on my agenda but I don’t think I’ll survive! 🙁

Thank you, I’m glad you think so! Thank you, and you xx
Girll we literally have the same goals! Although I’d love to buy makeup products, I really need to save money. Good luck with your goals, I’m pretty sure you’ll be able to achieve them xx
http://new-lune.com
haha no way! Yeah, saving money has to take priority with me too. Thank you, and the exact same to you too xx
Never too late to set some new and exciting goals! 🙂 Wish you the best of luck with yours!
Paula
That’s so true! Thank you, and good luck with yours too, if you’ve set some xx
Good luck with your goals for this year 🙂

Thank you, good luck if you’ve set any too xx
Aw great goals! I’d love to cook better too 😀 my goal for this year is to get some fresh fruit and veg growing, as I find it difficult to get out and get fresh produce in regularly. I’m hoping it will boost my diet and I may become more adulty, let’s pretend that’s a word haha! Always love your blog and photos 😀 xx
elizabeth ♡
Thank you! I hope you’re able to improve too! Ah that would be so helpful, I hope you’re able to do it. Haha it can be a word now! Thank you so much xx
So many of these are my 2019 goals, as well! I especially want to start exercising, being more productive during the day, and declutter things I don’t need anymore. Best of luck to you in accomplishing your goals this year! Thanks for sharing! 🙂

Good luck with your goals! It’ll all be so helpful and beneficial. Thank you, and no problem, thank you for stopping by xx
I’m so glad to hear that someone else can’t cook because I’m the EXACT same. I just get so anxious that I’m going to undercook or overcook it or that it’s going to taste horrible and that people are going to remember it FOREVER. My boyfriend is the best cook aswell so to be honest that’s just made me a bit lazy haha. I am the exact same with makeup and decluttering, too! I am in desperate need of a massive clear out of everything to be honest, including makeup! I wish you the best of luck with all of it 🙂
Alice Xx
haha I’m glad it isn’t just me too! Yes same, and there’s nothing worse than undercooking something! Aw, at least he can cook, maybe he could teach you? Definitely getting too much stuff, but can imagine it’ll feel so much better afterwards. Thank you so much xx
I’m trying to buy less makeup too! WE GOT THIS GIRL! I’ve decided to go on a no buy for 2/3 months! Good luck with your goals babe!
xxx
Good luck, no buys are always hard! We’ve got this though!! Thank you xx
Sounds like 2019 will be a busy busy year for you! Haha this reminds me that I wanted to learn how to cook a few years ago, but I didn’t. My cooking still tastes so bland and looks gross. But hey, at least it’s all edible!

haha I hope so! That’s true, at least it’s edible!xx
Nice goals. I wish you that you achieve every one of them. I like the “being proactive” goal, if I think about it, it would benefit me as well.
Thank you! It’s definitely a beneficial one, and I hope it is for you too xx
I feel like I have heaps of recipes I could recommend to you, but I can’t write them all in a comment or it would be the longest comment in existence, haha. I like to cook but I also love to bake, and I know some people who are really good bakers but they don’t love cooking that much!
Julia // The Sunday Mode
Ah no way! Haha, imagine! Yes I know what you mean, some people are definitely one or the other. I think I’m average at both haha xx
