2014 Tay-Do List!

My Anti New Year’s Resolutions

I’ve said before that I no longer do New Year’s Resolutions. Every day, I’m striving to be a healthier, smarter, all around better person and I don’t need a new year to put unrealistic pressures on myself.  I really want to do everything on my list, but I don’t always get to complete everything. That doesn’t mean that I’m a failure–it just means that life got in the way. From my 2013 To-Do List,  I attended a Blogger Conference, I attended 3 professional conferences ( 2more than I planned on), I had my first alcoholic drink (I waited until I was 21), I spoke at 4 different events, I visited 4 states ( 2more than I planned on), I had a fantastic 21st birthday party, I submitted photos for Jet Beauty of The Week, I did karaoke in public (twice), took a boxing class, ran a 10K, selected as one of Tastemaker Magazine influencers under 40, and and took myself out on dates. Yes, there are things that I didn’t do and some of them will roll over on to this list, but I’m sooooo proud of the things that I did accomplish. I’m going to make sure that I write more about what I check off my Tay-Do List, so I can keep you guys up to date! So without further adieu here is what I want to do this year:

  1. GREAT List. I have running a half marathon on mine too. I can tell you are very action oriented so I am confident you will blow right through those Tay Do’s!

  2. Wow, what an awesome year you have had and some big plans for 2014. I took on a 31 day challenge to blog everyday and it was challenging, rewarding and surprisingly easier than I thought, that was 31 days though, 365 wowza!
    Enjoy that skydive and the Louboutins great choice.

  3. Love your list! And definitely, go skydiving…so much fun!! I did a tandem jump at 11,000 ft. Super fun! Scary, but empowering…if you can jump from a plane, you can do anything. Happy New Year!

  4. Awesome list–and you sound like you have a great perspective! Skydiving would be really cool for your readers to read about, I’m sure, but your other goals seem really meaningful, and I like the variety of how you focus on different aspects of your life.

  5. Resolutions. Goals. Plans. It’s all the same to me and I like to begin the new year with a list of new goals in sight! I am hyper-detailed so I have everything broken down in steps in a timeline!

    I think 2014 will be an exciting year for you. I also plan to do the 52 week savings goal!

    Found you via the Sits Girls Sharefest!

  6. this is so great! thanks for inspiring me to make my list 🙂

    i need to learn to play golf too.
    happy almost new year! XO
