Hey lovies Happy New year !!!!
I’m back from an abrupt break . I blame school , my mental health and my laziness for this .I genuinely love writing and that break put me in such a depressive mood because I did want to type and post so much content but was unable to physically and mentally
But we can skip that part and all is forgiven ? We can get back to me typing random posts and you giving me your utmost review and sharing my work? Ok great !!
This post is about my new year resolutions . It is a little personal for sharing but I am going to try to be as general as possible .
NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS
- ACCEPTING I HAVE A PROBLEM
There is a sense of pain and relief in sitting down with yourself and admitting your faults. I cannot really say I’m the nicest person but I do try to be a decent human being. I feel that admitting my faults is one of them. I do plan on working on them for my personal benefit as well as those around me as I’ve seen and experienced how much harm my bad traits have been caused .
I have also accepted that some of my bad traits are not really my fault . Being able to admit that maybe I have a mental problem has been liberating for me . Coming from a black African household we do not really believe in mental health so it would be very hard to discuss it with my family . When I get a job and move out I’ll probably talk to a therapist about it .
2. WORKING OUT
I never had a problem with my body . I am fat and was perfectly fine with it . But coming to university has exposed me to the worst fastshaming I have ever experienced . And I guess it did get to me cause I’ve had a poor relationship with my body and food ever since . This year I would like to start working out and improve my diet . Maybe it would help a little to make those small life changes So I can feel more comfortable with my body and improve my confidence .
3. NO MORE OVERSHARING
I feel like I overshare a lot on my social media and in person too. It hasn’t got me into trouble but I feel like it will eventually . I feel like not everyone needs to know me so well because they are random people to me . I would like to be one of those mysterious people but God knows I cannot shut up ! I love talking I love storytelling too . Perhaps I won’t stop but rather regulate what I let people know about me .
4. INVESTING TIME INTO MY INTERESTS AND HOBBIES
I have so many interests and hobbies there is not enough space at home to fit all my crafts in. I paint , I make jewelry , I write , I craft stuff from paper and so much more! But I’ve realized it is not possible to do all these things cause I am so bad with time management and discipline . This year I wanna make time for all of that . Who knows where it’ll take me hey .
Well those are a few of many resolutions I would like to share with you . I’ll update you all on how it’ll go later in the year . What are some of yours ?
