So this is it, my last blog post of 2017. It's been a crazy year all in all, and I've learnt so much in just 12 short months.
Although I don't "do" New Year's Resolutions per se, I thought I'd list a few realistic resolutions - or should I say goals - that could make 2018 your (and my) best year ever. It's all a case of learning from your mistakes and successes, and oh BOY did I make some mistakes this year! My biggest mistake was taking on far too much work - much more than one person could possibly handle - so that's my number one priority this year.I have to learn to say no more often, especially when it comes to job offers. Being freelance gives you that sense of worry, the constant Where is my next pay cheque going to come from feeling. It's a feeling that's hard to shake off when you've been in a situation where several people have disappeared off the face of the earth with your hard-earned money. I'm so glad I managed to turn things around in just over a year without having to give up the blog (but it came close!) - in the next year I need to organise my time much better and get my work-life balance right.
These goals can apply to anyone and everyone - I've used examples from my own life but I'm sure most people can recognise how these goals apply to them.
