14 things I'm gonna change in 2014

With the new year rapidly approaching, I have started thinking about things that I would like to change in my personal and professional life. So I have compiled a list of 14 things I want to change about my life in 2014.


  • Seeing the good. Since I made my last "resolutions", I have found I need to revisit the idea of "things ALWAYS could be worse". I feel that this outlook on life is working for me, but still a little bit of hurt sinks in every once in a while.  I need to keep an optimistic point of view and trust in God to just let the amazing happen. 
  • My extra load (weight). I definitely don't need that! Just because I am married and have kids does not mean that I need to get lazy! I've made a few major changes and my progress is showing, but I need to stay focused. 
  • Drama. I can always ditch the people who bring drama into my life. But someone always sneaks in an attack. While I understand that drama brings a little entertainment to some peoples lives. I realize I don't need nor want it in mine, it really is unnecessary. 
  • No junk food! maybe less coffee and soda too...
  • Clutter!!! I don't like or need it!
  • Negativity.  I do not need people who are negative in my life, whatsoever. Negativity is infectious... It is way too easy to spread. It already takes a ton of effort to try and be optimistic! I definitely do not need someone hanging around me that makes that outlook even harder!
  • Debt. We don't have much, but I don't want any!
  • Over-committing. I have my hands dipped in too much. I need to start saying "NO!".
  • More crafting. I guess everyone goes through changes... but I miss crafting. I just need to find the motivation and inspiration. 
  • Speaking of inspiration. I need to purge my bookmarks. I HAVE TONS. 
  • Procrastination. Let's just say that...I don't do it often, but when I do, my days seem to get all messed up lol
  • Praying. I need to spend more time with God. I have the tendency of trying to do things on my time instead of relying on God's time. With lots of prayer and grace, I will soon be on the right track ;)
  • Less time on social media!!! No explanation needed.
  • Time with my husband. I love that man of mine dearly. I want to spend as much time with him as I quite possibly can.
We can all use a little makeover in our lives. What things would you like to change? How will you go about eliminating or adding them into your life? Remember you're never alone in your walk, you just gotta find the right people to walk with you :)
