NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS | 2017

Keeping up with my wrapping up the year posts today I want to share my resolutions for next year, you know we all make lists every year, then as the year goes on we stop keeping these resolutions (most likely this will happen by the second week of the year), and then we are dragging our list around for the remainder of the year as a reminder of how much of a failure we were this year, and that turns into tons of memes about how much this year sucked, cue 2016, and I don’t blame you or anyone else for that matter, the thing is we’ve all been taught to make this ridiculous lists that no one would be able to keep up with.

Siguiendo con mis posts para cerrar el año, hoy quiero compartir mis metas para el próximo año, obvio todos hacemos listas cada año, y con forme avanza el año dejamos de seguirlas (ésto probablemente ocurre durante la segunda semana del año) y luego vamos arrastrando nuestras listas durante el resto de año como un recordatorio de lo mucho que fallamos éste año, y eso se convierte en un montón de memes de lo malo que estuvo el año, como con éste, y no te culpo ni a nadie más por eso, la cosa es que nos han enseñado a hacer éstas listas ridículas con las que nadie puede cumplir.

Lose 5 pounds every month, stop eating carbs for the rest of the year, reading 2 books a week, running a marathon, never watching Netflix again, find prince charming and having the perfect wedding all in the same year. Seriously? How about more achievable and real goals? Lose some weight in a healthy way over the course of the year, eating healthier, reading more, exercising regularly, avoid staying in front of the screen every weekend, making responsible choices about my love life. These sound better huh?

Bajar dos kilos cada mes, dejar de comer carbohidratos el resto del año, leer dos libros a la semana, correr un maratón, nunca volver a ver Netflix, encontrar al príncipe encantador y tener una boda perfecta ese mismo año. ¿Neta? ¿Qué tal si pensamos en metas más reales y alcanzables? Perder peso de un modo saludable durante todo el año, comer más sano, leer más, ejercitarme regularmente, evitar quedarme pegada frente a la televisión todos los fines de semana, tomar decisiones responsables sobre mi vida sentimental. ¿Suenan mejor no?

So that’s why in 2017 I’ll try to do the next things, but I won’t beat myself up if I can’t do them as planned, and I’ll try to see the silver lining in case I can’t keep up with them, but ideally, this is what I’d love to achieve during 2017.

Es por eso que en 2017 intentaré hacer las siguientes cosas, pero no me sentiré mal si no puedo lograrlas como planeé, e intentaré ver el lado positivo si no puedo mantenerlas, pero idealmente, ésto es lo que me gustaría lograr en 2017.

Keeping up my healthy path, no smoking, drinking enough water, working out twice a week.

Seguir con mi vida saludable, no fumar, tomar suficiente agua, hacer ejercicio dos veces a la semana.

Read at least 1 book a month.

Leer al menos un libro al mes.

Being financially responsible, save more, spend less, keep track of it.

Ser financieramente responsable, ahorrar más, gastar menos, llevar un registro.

Try to always look my best, invest enough time planning my outfits.

Intentar siempre verme bien, invertir suficiente tiempo en planear mis outfits.

Spending at least 4 days a month without any make-up on (weekends not included). I’m beautiful with or without it.

Pasar al menos 4 días del mes sin maquillaje (no valen los fines de semana). Soy bonita con o sin él.

Make an effort to be more sociable and independent, hanging out with people on my own more often, no need to drag bae around everywhere.

Hacer un esfuerzo para ser más sociable e independiente, salir con amigos más seguido.

Getting off my meds and space out my therapy sessions.

Dejar de tomar mis medicamentos y espaciar mis sesiones de terapia.

Support my fellow women, keep reminding that I stand with them, not against them, find love and support and sistership in them.

Apoyar a las mujeres, seguir recordando que estoy con ellas y no contra ellas, encontrar amor, apoyo y hermandad en ellas.

Keep working on my blog, always staying true to myself and my work ethics.

Seguir trabajando en el blog, siempre siendo yo y apegándome a mi ética de trabajo.

Take at least 1 weekend getaway with bae, keep working on our relationship and showing how much this matters to me on a daily basis with the little things.

Ir de viaje de fin de semana con bae, seguir trabajando en nuestra relación y demostrarle lo mucho que lo quiero a diario con los pequeños detalles.
