Personal · Things to focus on
8.5.15
There is never a bad timing to set yourself new challenges. I have some personal goals I want to focus on this year. It's just something I do all the time, I bet I'll have a whole new list of ideas very soon again. Here's what I'm currently concentrated on:
Work harder
Getting things done is one thing I've never been good at. I'm not the best student, and I'm a procrastinator when it comes to studying or any kind of assignment. I finally made it to my last semester as a bachelor's student. It's hard, but in order to get my degree I will have to work harder; in the next few weeks as I have exams coming up, and then for my master's degree too. Same goes for blogging and other things I want to accomplish. I have this new journal called the Passion Planner, in which I'm determined to write down projects and goals for the next year.
Improve photography skills
Last summer I bought a new camera (the Fuji X20 if anyone's interested). It was a present to myself after a month of hard work at my summer job, and at the same time an investment for the blog. Figuring out how the camera works made me realize how much I like taking photographs. My pictures are far from perfect - nor do I expect them to be! - but I am willing to practise and learn along the way. Most of all I just want to go to (new) places and take nice pictures. Sounds lovely, don't you think? ;-)
Visit at least one new place
Check! In July I'm going to Ireland with friends. Any places in the Dingle area we NEED to visit? I'm also half-planning to go see a friend in Berlin. It's so exciting because I've wanted to visit the city for so long now and lots of people tell me they loved it!
Try cooking and baking recipes more often
During my time abroad, I prepared (fresh) meals almost every day. Having to take care of myself I discovered I really like cooking. Now that I'm back home, I want to spend more time on trying recipes. I haven't had much time yet - see first paragraph - but I can see myself trying new recipes daily once the exams are over.
Is there anything you want to focus on?
