Get ready 2016, here I come

Along with the post “my life list“, I collaborated with Juni Desirée on our New Year Resolutions as well(check out her post). Before we start with my list, I´d love to know what your New Years Resolutions are! Leave me a comment down below or write a post and link it back to me, so I can see! Yay for 2016!
This is your year.
This is our year!
Let´s make it great!
Who´s excited?!?
ME!

A few tips beforehand for really realizing your resolutions:

• be as specific as possible (once a week/…)
• set a date (have the project done by the 2/31…)
• print your list out and hang it where you see it often (the fridge is a great spot;-))
• don´t go overboard like me, keep the list simple
• set aside a specific time each week or each day to work toward your resolutions, e.g. 30 min every Sunday
• lastly, don´t pressure yourself to hard, be disciplined, but also understanding with yourself and kind
