Do you remember just over a month ago, I shared with you some of my goals as part of my collaboration with the Post-it brand and Katie Piper? You can read that post HERE. Well it’s time to look at those goals, and see if I made any headway with them.
‘Dream big and reach for the stars.’ & ‘Respect your mind, body and soul Amanda’
I’m smiling as I write this, as I am so pleased that I have achieved what I set out to do, as both of my goals were more about me, making time to concentrate on my career as well as myself as a person. I feel happy, that even in tough stressful times when I lost my way a little, I still managed to remained focused.
I think what I’m most proud of that is that I had a goal to create something from scratch, and start a new blog, something that would give me a fresh perspective and focus. Together with my co-founders Kate and Jen, I have done this, and We Blog Travel launched last week. I’m so incredibly proud to be part of a this three person team and hoping for even more exciting times ahead!
Staying focused and motivated has been made a whole lot easier with those post-it notes always being on my desk. I had a smaller goal of generally travelling more this summer, which was part of the wider plan I mentioned above and the exciting new blog. Having just come back from Corsica with a trip to Cyprus soon with my whole family, and another top-secret trip planned *taps nose* I am thrilled that I am going to be hitting that goal too.
So for this summer I’ve decided on a new post-it note goal for my board:
‘Have the best summer we have ever had’
My summer is going to be quite different this year, and I need to focus on this being the best summer as a family we have had so far, and I am feeling confident we are going to achieve it! My next idea is to make time to list everything that we want to do together as a family over the summer holidays, so we keep focused on idea, and how we will achieve them. Lets make it happen team!

I hadn’t realised that you had set these goals before we decided to create a new blog so it’s great to hear that everything is coming together so well! I love your new goal and think I might adopt that for myself! X
So glad you have managed to achieve what you set out to do, I am really excited by this years summer holidays and like you plan to make it as great as possible. I love your idea about writing down what each of you want to achieve during the summer holidays. Think it is a great way to focus your mind. I look forward to seeing what you have in store!
Ooh good luck sounds lots of fun!
