Goals for 2010
I decided not to spam my RSS feeds too hard with my 365 stories, so I’ll just post up occasional ones and my journey through 2010.
I wanted to set some goals for this year, things I’d like to achieve and do – I have already done a couple of things on my list so I will mark them down and cross them off. :) Thanks to my friend @edible_hat for the idea :)
Goals for 2010
- Declutter. Even though I started last year with almost nothing, for some reason I still seem to have a lot of junk. It’s all useful, but lots of it I don’t use. I am thinking of donating some of my jewellery supplies to a couple of people, and really thinking twice about what I have in the cupboard. Do I really need it? If I haven’t touched it in the last year I think it should be ditched.
- Worry less about what people not close to me think/say about me. I know everyone has a problem with this and wants to fix it, but you seriously can’t help it sometimes, right? I have done a good job with this over the last year thanks to some help from Michael but there’s still a couple of people that rub me the wrong way.. Have to learn to distance myself from it and not let it bother me.
- Declutter my clothes every two months. I really want to stick with this one – I always seem to have so many clothes I don’t wear. Will sell the good stuff on eBay or things I’ve barely/never worn, and donate the rest to charity.
- Some form of study. I’m working on this – I didn’t make the first TAFE offer round because I changed my preferences too late but I hope to get into the course on the second round. It’s a Cert IV in Hospitality (Patisserie). After reviewing the course units it seems good for me, and it’s only six months. If I don’t make it, I’ll take some short courses through TAFE instead. I need to start studying, I deferred last year which was a huge waste study wise.
- Keep being me. A bit of background: in 2007 I had a breakdown and had to quit my job and have worked on and off for the last two years with some recurring anxiety episodes. Since my last major one in September I have been much better and even the difference to how I acted last time I was in Queensland is huge, which is fantastic.
- Quit my part time job. Not that this is a big deal, but I would like to get to the stage with my business that I can quit and focus on one thing. Even now in the beginning with so much going on it is getting hard, and unfortunately it seems it’s starting to show on my work (not the cupcakes). Even though I’m trying quite hard, it doesn’t seem to be good enough, so I’d like to get C/Treats up to speed quickly. That shouldn’t be too hard, considering the opportunities I have already!
- Be a little bit more comfortable with myself. I am getting loads better at this! Last year I worked to tone up and lose some weight with WiiFit and I will continue doing this when I can. I also eat a lot better… (well, up until Christmas, hahaha).
I should be good to finish most of this but now I can see how I really go over the next 12 months. :)

Good list! Similar to mine a little, at least with decluttering and being more comfortable with myself stuff.
Decluttering in particular reminds me: Damn—I forgot to bring the books in today that I’m going to donate to the library! Damn damn damn!
I think one thing I need to learn to do is to be a little gentle and forgiving on myself. I’m very harsh on myself when I can’t do everything.
Good luck with your goals for the year. At some point I should properly write down mine. :D
