How Many Of My Resolutions Did I Keep
So before this year started I posted a bunch of resolutions that I wanted to achieve this year which is not something I usually do because I’m not a big fan of the whole making resolutions thing but a bunch of other bloggers were doing it and it seemed fun so I thought I would give it a try. So I thought since the year is almost over which resolutions I kept and which ones didn’t work out as planned! To check out the resolutions post click here.
Make more time for blogging
This was the first resolution I had on the list and thankfully I have kept it… for the most part. I mean sure sometimes I get lazy or really busy and can’t post regularly but especially recently I feel as though my excitement and inspiration for blogging has really come back and I have been trying to blog at least 5 times a week which has been amazing! It has really helped increase traffic and followers and most importantly it has given me more enthusiasm to write more!
Eat healthier
I started eating a plant-based and much healthier diet. Okay, I mean I’m not going to act like I did not eat any junk food because you know I did but I ate healthier junk food and a much healthier diet in general which is what I think counts! I love this resolution because it really made the biggest impact in my life and I genuinely feel better than ever thanks to the changes in my diet!
Write at least one page a day
I tried you guys. I really did. But I’ve been super busy and I just have not had the time or energy to keep up with this one. But maybe next year!
Include new topics on the blog like recipes
I did this one! Okay, I haven’t posted a recipe in a while but I have included a bunch of new topics on the blog and you guys seemed to enjoy them which is awesome!
Study in advance and don’t leave assignments for last minute
Yeah… this one just didn’t happen…
Explore more
I did! I tried new stuff that was kind of scary (thanks social anxiety) and also made a bunch of new friends!
Read more
I’m a history major so a large part of my studies is just reading so I didn’t have a lot of time to read other stuff but I did read a couple of books that I wanted to review which was so fun. Plus, I think it counts as reading even if it’s historical sources and stuff!
Build a snowman (that one’s just for fun!)
This one hasn’t happened yet but there’s still time!
Don’t give up on German!
Ich habe es versucht…
Learn something new everyday
Well I tried and I can honestly say I learnt so much this year. Maybe not every single day but significantly more then the last two decades of my life!
Start a YouTube Channel over summer
Yeah that didn’t happen…
Support more blogs
I will never stop doing this and yes I did end up visiting a bunch of new blogs and reading a bunch of awesome posts and sharing some amazing posts with you guys as well!
Get a job
I’m working on it.
Be more communicative with my feelings instead of repressing everything
I did and it opened a gate and now I can’t stop… help me…
So do you guys think I should make resolutions for 2019?? Let me know in the comments below!

Hey pooja🙋♂️,how are you?
Hi I’m good how are you?
I’m kinda good. Good to hear about your new year resolutions and their success.
Thanks!
Well done!! What next?
Thank you and I really have no idea I’ll have to think about that!
I need to do more work it seems lol glad you can get some things checked off though! 😊💗💗
– Kiki
Yeah I’m glad I did some of them and we can always try harder next year!
I love your list! Most of those are on my to do list as well. Definitely not the snowman. I live in the Caribbean 🙂 Hurray for plant-based diet..go for it!
I used to live in Kenya and had never seen snow till last year so I was like I have to build a snowman!
Thanks and good luck with your resolutions!
I spent 4 years in Kenya! We have something in common! Thanks, and best of luck to you as well!
Hope you had an amazing time in Kenya and thanks!
Hello Pooja!
I am so glad to know you’re also doing a plant based diet! I am so happy I could hug you!
Good luck with your resolutions for 2019!
I know there aren’t enough of us and when you do find someone else who’s plant based it’s super awesome! Thank you so much and hope everything works out in 2019 for you too!
Yay for plant based diet!
I am loving it so much!!
Yeah for history! Do you have a specific area of focus? What is your favorite history to study?
Right now I’ve not specified on anything yet and I really love learning about all history but I am loving American history right now because it’s the first time I’m learning it so it’s super interesting to me!
That is awesome. I used to teach US History and American Government at the high school level, so I love it too!
Wow that’s amazing I would love to teach history some day!
This is such a good post! I love the gifs. Here’s to 2019! 🥂
Thank you so much! Hope we have an amazing 2019!
Fun post 😀 You should do one for the next year as well 👍
Thank you and I think I will!
I love your resolutions and I find that a lot of them coincide with mine, surprisingly including with the results. I congratulate you on sticking to a plant-based diet, I failed in that (*feeling sad for now and resolved for next year*).
Well I’m sure you’ll do better next year. I failed the first time I tried to go vegan too because I gave up everything at once but it’s easier if you give up things one by one because then your body gets used to it better.
Good luck on setting some new resolutions for 2019. You are doing pretty good I think if you set that many goals and even accomplish half of them.
Thank you so much and I definitely want to set some new resolutions for 2019!
Hi! I think you did a really good job with your resolutions overall !! A lot better than i ever have whenever i tried making them haha 😉 Maybe you should try it again this year 😀
Thank you and I think I will make another list for 2019!
If you could achieve a majority of these then I think yes, you should write some more for 2019. I always like finishing the job and ticking the resolution of my list. Good work x
Thank you and yeah I love ticking them off too it’s super fun!
You are very welcome!
Your last year’s resolution are my coming year’s resolutions..blogging and german being the pivotal..I also have one for solo travel..here’s hoping I stick by them all.😊
Best of luck with your resolutions and hope you achieve them all!!
I love this post.
Thank you so much!
I don’t do resolutions. I just have transient goals that are all one goal of be content.
That’s an amazing goal to have for yourself!
I dont know your time zone, but it’s 2 minutes to midnight. Happy. New Year!!?
I’m in the same time zone!! Happy New Year!!
Awesome!
Happens to the best of us
Yeah it’s hard to keep all your resolutions!
It’s interesting how writing more can keep you motivated. Get on that YouTube channel! I’m a filmmaker by profession, so hit me up if you need some tips! 🙂 Happy new year!
Thank you so much that’s so sweet!
There’s a whole lot of 2019 left. Who knows what fun things you’ll do?!
Hallo, wie gehts? I am also working on my German.
Mein gehts gut und du? Good luck with the German!
Hey! I wrote an article about how to put your ideas into action. I think you would like it 🙂 take a look: https://motivatedmusiciandotblog.wordpress.com/2019/01/14/on-ideas/
I’ll check it out!
I loved reading this.
I have just started my own endeavor for this year- would definitely want to know your thoughts about it.
https://anxiousandcaffeinated.home.blog/
Thanks I’ll definitely check it out!
Reblogged this on LIVING THE DREAM.
Thank you!
Thank you for the extra motivation and to show us that we are humans, and that even if we cannot get all of our goals accomplished, it is ok. I am definitely stealing this idea of article for end of next year. Thank you, again !
Everyone always thinks they need to constantly keep their goals but falling off is a part of achieving your goals. It isn’t always easy and some goals don’t always get accomplished but the fact that you tried is what really matters! Feel free to use the idea I look forward to seeing how you did with your 2020 goals!
