Well, it’s that time again! Time for everyone to set ridiculous, much-wanted goals only to fail quite quickly, all in the name of ‘new year’s resolutions
‘. Well, I hate that term, because it means failure, so I’m going to call them my goals for 2017. These I won’t fail at and I’ll work toward for the rest of the year! They’re going to seem ridiculous and impossible, but I’m not one to back down, and I’m definitely not one to stop trying to do hard things.
1. Read My Entire Bible
I am not afraid to be the first person to admit it; over the years I’ve hardly read the Bible. As of late I’ve completely finished Proverbs and Song of Solomon, but now my goal is to read the whole entire Bible. It can’t be that hard, honestly. It’s the size of any other book! I’m currently working on Psalms.
2. Touch My Toes
No, I’m not fat. XD I am just incredibly not flexible. A couple years ago I was working toward a split, but I gave up. By the end of the year I wanna be flexible enough to touch my toes. I will use SworkIt, and whatever else I can. I will touch my toes by the end of the year! I can do this!
3. Learn to Dance Jazz
Right now I am in dance class and I know Swing and am currently learning Foxtrot. I was dancing wildly one day to Something Wild and wondered what the ‘other ballet’ was called. It’s called ‘jazz’. I’ve always wanted to learn how to dance jazz, so my friend and I are going to learn! We’ll use the internet and howcast.com‘s wonderful 35 video playlist on YouTube of dance moves to learn.
4. Get Published
Whether it’s in an anthology, a poem, a full novel/novella, or self-publishing, I want something I’ve done published. I’ll try everything I can. *Stares at query letters and feels myself die inside* But, I know I can get published. I just have to try harder.
5. Finish A Couple Novels/Novellas
Yes. A couple. Not one. Not maybe two. More than one. I have many novels and novellas to finish, and I have an entire year to do it, right? So let’s go. Let’s make the post of this year! Finding Jackson, Storm, Operation; Sweets, (Dark Pirate Story), Terror of the ViperClan are all the ones I plan to finish (the last one will be a rewrite). I’ll probably get a million more story ideas, but those are the ones I plan on finishing this year.
6. Update Wattpad More Often
*Coughs* Yeah, I’m a terrible person. I used to update constantly in 8th grade, and now I hardly do it. So I’m gonna get back on that.
So, what do you think? Think I’m a crazy girl who’ll never get it done? What do you think of my goals? What are your goals? Comment below, can’t wait to hear from you!
