I bet you didn’t expect to see this post so soon, not from me anyway. I’ve finally gotten my act together to get this post up on time and not in the middle of February. At the beginning of 2020 I set myself some goals for the year, and now that it’s nearly 2021 I thought I would reflect and see how I’ve gotten on with them.
This is 2020 Goals How Did I Get On?
Lose Weight
In simple terms, I’ve made no further progress with this since my update post in June. My weight has fluctuated a lot, but I’ve stayed about the same I was then. Which I’m not upset about, but I definitely want to lose more because I know I can do it. I’ve done it once and I can do it again.
Continue To Learn How to Cook
This has been a major success. There’s still a lot more to learn, but I’ve been making things that I never thought I could. I really enjoy cooking and love making new things. It’s nice to be able to cook something rather than stick a ready meal in the microwave. It’s also a huge bonus that *touch wood* nothing has gone horribly wrong.
Completely Use Up a Powder Product
I wouldn’t exactly call this a fail, because it’s been hard to make progress. With being in lockdown I wasn’t wearing any makeup and because of that I’m yet to using anything up. I have hit pan on a fair few products, but nothing has been finished. This is still something I’m working towards, because I know that I need to downsize.
Drink Less Fizzy Drinks
I’d say I have good days and bad days with this, but it’s definitely improved from this time last year. I’m now drinking more juice instead of Pepsi Max, which I like to call a success. The next mission will be changing the juice to water, but one step at a time for now.
Shop My Stash
This has been a major success, and I’m very happy about it. I’ve barely bought anything new this year, and I’ve been enjoying using the products I have. I rediscovered the Sweet Peach Palette and it’s become one of my favourite palettes of the year. It’s nice to use what I own instead of constantly moving on to the next thing.
There we have it! That was 2020 Goals How Did I Get On?
I’d like to think I did pretty well with it, even with the circumstances.
Did you set yourself goals for 2020?
Thanks for reading!
That’s a great idea to do! I always put goals for myself but never look at the end of it how I did! I’m glad you’re having fun in the kitchen xx
I am so glad you think so! I think it’s so important to look back and reflect. Thank you xx
Sounds like a success to me! Well done Hannah! Xx

Thank you so much!xx
Me too.. I’ve done good at not buying things I don’t need like extra clothes or beauty products. Hope I can kind of keep this up in 2021 as well.
Happy Holidays!

Thank you I’m glad you think so! I hope you’re able to explore different recipes next year xx
These are such great goals for 2020. I have the same one about losing weight. I need to eat healthier in the new year for sure!
I am glad you think so! Good luck, I hope you’re able to do it xx
I didn’t really have any goals for 2020 as some pretty difficult personal stuff has been going on the whole year but I am looking to making some for 2021. I have to think about them a bit more but I hope they will be useful, etc. I think you have done really well with your goals this year, congrats!
I am sorry to hear that, I hope you have an amazing 2021. Thank you so much, I appreciate it xx
I love that you write 2020 goals because on my blog, I also list my monthly goals and it’s great to reflect to see what you’ve accomplished 😉

Oh so nice that you learned How to Cook! Congratulations darling
Merry Christmas!
Thank you! It’s such a great skill to have xx
I never remember to keep track of any goals I set so I always forget if I’ve made any progress. I’ve definitely been shopping my stash more this year and I’ve managed to use up quite a few products which I’m pleased about!

Ah, no way! That’s good to hear, it’s always nice to use what you have xx
Congrats on smashing your goals – it’s been quite the year so you’ve done brilliantly. I don’t set goals any more because I get too downhearted when I don’t meet them but I love hearing about other people’s successes 🙂
Thank you, I’m glad you think so! I know what you mean, I used to be the same xx
I’m looking to losing some weight in 2021, I hope I’ll be able to stick to it! I love these goals you made at the start of 2020! x

Good luck with it! Thank you so much xx
I know sticking to goals can be hard during a pandemic. But more time at home so more time to cook lol! And that is good to get away from drinks like coke and pepsi I NEVER drink this, it is very bad for you.

Thank you so much!xx
I feel your pain with fluctuating weight. It’s always a battle, and not an easy one. But any progress is good progress, and as you keep learning to cook, you’ll be able to do more.
I get what you mean, and totally agree with you! Progress is progress. That is such a good point xx
I love reading posts like this! I need to take some of these into my own life for 2021! xxx
I am so glad you like them! I hope you have an amazing 2021 xx
Well done on reaching some of these goals. I definitely agree lockdown has had an effect on so much, including some of my goals too.
Thank you! It was definitely a strange year xx
Great job on your goals! Well done!

Thank you xx
Thank you for sharing how you got on with your goals this year, using up products and buying less is on mine for next year 🙂
It’s no problem, thank you for stopping by! I hope it goes well for you xx
I love how your goals were such that still completely obtainable despite the pandemic. I didn’t set any goals for my self, but my hopes to travel more and find more steady job in either hospitality or media got kinda push back by the whole situation.

Oh I want to learn how to cook >< have been planning to do it for so long! I definitely have to add this as my goal for next year. Thank you for sharing x
You did a great job working towards your goals this past year! Hitting pan is a major accomplishment – next year I want to shop my stash more and do a better job using up more of my collection, too!
You’ve made some major progress and success, hunn! Good for you xx

I always love reading posts like these! It reminds me (and also thinking at my personal goals for 2020) that it’s okay when things don’t turn out exactly as we planned them so long ago. With the lockdown we must have all improved our cooking skills haha!

It’s always good to reflect on goals!
I think you’ve made great progress considering we didn’t know what the year would hold when you made these goals
Here’s hoping 2021 has something better on the horizon

You should be so proud at all you’ve achieved in 2020! It’s was such a difficult year, and for you to have accomplished quite a bit of your goals is amazing! I hope you’re even more successful with your 2021 goals 🙂 xx

You did really well! I can’t even remember my 2020 goals but Covid wiped most of the year out for me so I don’t care about not achieving them – just being alive is enough for me! x
