Welcoming the New Year

Hello 2022!!

It is mid-January and we are already well into the New Year.

My family is looking forward to Daddy coming home from deployment this year & celebrating our precious family with as much family time together as possible. What are you most looking forward to in 2022?

I decided to use this time of year to reflect on my top three dreams/ life goals. I determined what steps I want to take this year to get myself a little closer to those dreams.

My top three dreams right now are: 1) grow my business so that I can use the income to help provide for my family, 2) become a published author, 3) own an entirely off grid homestead.

These are not things I see happening this year, but dreams I aspire reach in my lifetime. This year for growing my business I will get more brick and mortar stockists for my designs and figure out a way to promote my business that brings more traffic to my website rather than Etsy. I will attend more in person events for my business as well. In the few short weeks we have spent in 2022, I have already re-branded by having a new logo created and re-designed my website. I see this as a such an exciting start. As for becoming a published author, I will start writing and reflecting on my experience in the mental health system as a social worker and as a patient myself. To work my way toward an entirely off-grid homestead, I will be more careful with my personal spending and as my business grows, I hope to save at least $1000 from my business income towards our homestead goal!

What goals and dreams do you have for your life? What are your plans this year to bring them to fruition?
