NOVEMBER 2019 GOALS

The fact that we have two more months of 2019 is beyond shocking to me! I never could fully grasp how quickly time flies but I am happy that I am aware of where we’re at in the year every time I write my monthly goals. November is going to be another hectic month for me and I am ready to embrace it since this year is coming close to an end. Oddly enough, I am looking forward to this month because this is when I start to enjoy the holidays since we welcome Thanksgiving at the end of this month!

Looking back at my October goals, I am happy that I was able to achieve all of them since I made sure I would set realistic goals that were attainable and measurable. I wanted to enjoy my travel trips and I definitely did that! For those who aren’t caught up, I recently embarked on a week cruise with Hapag-Lloyd which you can read about here. I also traveled with Norwegian Air and explored Rotterdam and you can read about it in my next blog post. I am getting better at balancing work and play and being present in the moment.

In terms of personal goals, I wanted to host a game night at my apartment and I had such a great time being a host! Although game night didn’t really involve games, I still enjoyed my time with my friends. In celebration of October, I also went apple picking and pumpkin picking with my roommate. We traveled out of the city and made a trip out of it and we also brought back some local honey and jam, which I am loving right now!

For the month of November, I have come up with the following three goals:

  • Get Tan from Aruba: It shouldn’t be a surprise that I have another trip lined up for this month. I will be leaving to Aruba the first weekend of November and I really want to come back with a tan! I know this might seem like a silly goal but I want to soak in as much sun as possible because I know I will start to feel the cold weather once I return. I of course also want to enjoy Aruba since I’ve never been there!
  • Have Friendsgiving at my place: Since I moved to my new apartment in July, I have been wanting to do more hosting at my place since I enjoy getting people together. I never did Friendsgiving nor attended Friendsgiving so this is going to be an exciting first for me! I think it’s a beautiful time to be with the people you love and also celebrate life, food and each other’s company.
  • Catch up with friends and family: Knowing that Thanksgiving is at the end of the month, I have been thinking more about gratitude. I have been traveling tons these past two months and I still have more ahead. With that being said, I have been feeling a little distant with my friends and family and I want to make an effort to catch up with them. This is a simple goal but it’s important for me to always check in with the people I love and make sure that they are doing well!

I am ready for November because I have a feeling it’s going to be a a great month. I hope you guys are just as excited for it as well. Definitely do jot down some of your personal goals because it’s great when you can take a step back and assess what you want to achieve in the next 30 days!
