New Year New Me

Doesn't the title just make you wanna roll your eyes? 👀 Suuuuper cliche. #Basic😜

Lol I promise to try and make the rest worth your read! 

Enjoy

Growing up, my family and I would sit down and write out our New Year's resolutions every year. "This year I'm going to do this and that and it's going to be awesome!"  But let's be real, it lasted MAYBE a month?

As an adult (not sure how I feel about it, but I'm #TotesAdulting and it's weird, but I'm loving it!) (And as an adult I should probs stop saying things like: probs, totes, adulting..... and hash-tagging in blogs. But I need something to make me feel young and hip 😜)(I'm making myself sound like a geezer! lol 25 and feeling alive! (Probs shouldn't use lol in blogs either)) (Sorry for all the bunny trails, let's get back to life↪.)

As a human being, it is my goal to actively better myself everyday. And that means no more January resolutions! You know, like when you get a gym membership in early January and stop going early February. ;) (it happens to the best of us)  Let's make a commitment to ourselves and to the rest of the world to simply |be better|

I want to share a couple of my resolutions with you in hopes of giving you some ideas and/or inspiring you to make your own list!

1. Know the Bible.

This will require me to start reading the Bible more but I don't just want to read the words on the page. I want to know the Bible. I want to memorize the Word of God. (Yes, memorizing the ENTIRE Bible would be pretty radical but let's pump the breaks..) I am going to start by choosing a verse every week or 2 and memorize it, study it, and ask God what He's teaching me through it.

2. "I be up in the gym just workin on my fitness 🏋"

I want to be HEALTHY! Not stick skinny, not Kylie Jenner... Healthy. This will look like work outs on the reg. and yummy, nutritious meals in good portions :) (If you know me or follow me on SnapChat/IG (@BrittneyNicol3) you know I have a LOOOOOVE😍 for tacos.. but they will now only be consumed in moderation 😓)

3. Confidence! 💃

I want to be so secure in who I am in every single aspect of my life. And I will! 😁

I'll be a little vulnerable here. I love to sing!🎝🎤 But one day (probably a series of events, tbh) I decided I was too afraid of what people will think and rejection and I stopped singing. But this year, I will sing and I will not care what people think because I'm living for me! 

Now this is for all the people!

 NO MORE LETTING FEARING CONTROL YOU! 🚫

and

NO MORE COMPARING YOURSELF! 🚫 🎤

because

YOU'RE AMAZING 💕

4. Travel. ✈

I loveee ❥ to travel and I love to experience new cultures. #Cliche

But I really do. I don't want to go to Mexico and stay in an all inclusive (Don't get me wrong, I do love that too) but I want to explore the little villages and play kickball with all the village kids.⚽💜 I want to eat the delicious authentic tacos that you pray are safe because they came from a cart. I like to meet the locals and experience life in someone else's shoes when I travel, even if it's just for a week. Traveling is eye opening and adventurous! I always love an adventure. You don't have to leave the state or country to travel, go explore a new part of your own state! Learn something new. 

5. Read 📖

I want to start reading more. I don't hate reading but if given the choice, I'll watch Netflix or take a snooze before picking up a book. 📺💤 A couple months ago I actually got a library card, so this year I'm going to (try to) put it to good use! So if you have book recommendations.. slide them in my dms 😉 hah!

 Okie dokie, there you have it! Here are 5 of my own New Year's resolutions. 

I want to encourage you to actually write/type out a list. When I write things down and post them for the world to see, it helps keep me accountable. Like "I told everyone I would do this.. I should actually do it and keep doing it!" 😊 That, and writing things out is a great way for me to process things and express myself!📣

I wish you all a beautiful day and be blessed💜💖 

That's it!
