My Goals for 2020

Happy New Year everyone! Yes I know it’s the last day of January but the newness is still in the air!

I love this time of year because it’s brings this sense of renewal and wanting to put your best foot forward. Now being accountable for these goals is a whole other story (and we can talk about that later lol) but I wanted to share a few things I wrote down in the start of the new year. 

1. Start a blog

Omg would you look at that! Look at us here on a blog I done started. This will be my third time starting a blog but I know I’m serious about this because I really invested in this so YOU GONE HEAR FROM ME, period.

2. Do a pole performance 

For about 7 months I have been taking pole and dance classes at Secret Pole Dance Studio and it has been one of the most challenging and exciting things I’ve ever done. Eventually when I get this strength together, really aiming for this year, I’ll be able to participate in a student show case and really show out. 

3. Take a jewelry making class 

I am a jewelry designer, AysiaB.com, and I know there is so much more I can learn that will further my creativity and help me make some designs I already have in mind come to fruition. I really want to take a class in metal smithing!

4. Get my drivers license

I know, I know. Please don’t judge me too hard. My dad had literally scarred me from wanting to drive for years, but I’ve finally come to terms that this is something I need, especially out here in LA ….it’s happening this year. 

5. Cut my hair 

Another thing I was able to scratch off my list! I am wanting to step out my comfort zone a little more this year and I thought a big chop is exactly what I needed. I’ve always desired to see what short hair was about but I was scared, but fear be gone. Doing all the shit that’s supposed to scare us 2k4ever! Read about how I prepared to get my hair cut here. 

6. Increase my credit score 

Now look…I’m not going to give too much detail, but between my student loans and this credit card debt…baybeee. But luckily there are tools out there like secured credit cards and credit builder accounts that will help me take my score to higher levels.

7. Go to therapy 

There are some situations that have happened in my life that I know I haven’t properly healed from and I think it would be the most beneficial for me to engage with a professional to help me and encourage my personal growth in all aspects of my life. I think EVERYONE should go to therapy and I’m searching for the perfect therapist right now.

8. Get more facials 

Self-care isn’t just about skin care but I’d say it’s an important aspect of it. I got my first facial last year and I damn near shed a tear while she was massaging my face! And my skin looked so glowy it was crazy but I truly felt amazing. I’d like to incorporate that feeling more often into my life! 

9. Drink more tea 

I know this may seem like a weird goal, but I think tea is something that everyone should have on a daily basis. The properties in some of these teas can help with mood, immunity, fatigue, period symptoms, weight loss, insomnia, anxiety and countless other things! It’s like all of nature’s goodness pouring itself into a cup and saying, “Here, upgrade your life.” 

10. Cook more often 

“You have food at home,” replays in my head as I think about the spinach patty I’ll be ordering from Simply Wholesome soon. I admit I used to be a plant based cooking mama back in the day but then I just got lazy. I want to start back with making at least one meal a week and gradually increase to where most of my meals are made from my hands. 

Let me know some your goals down below! 

stay sweet, Aysia B.
