Saying Yes and Setting Goals: How To Change Your Life

      As I sat here studying for my Spanish final on Monday and making some finishing touches on my final essays I was overwhelmed by not only how stressed out I am, but also how unhappy I am with what I have been doing in my life. I have a habit of saying no, of staying stuck in my own little bubble where it's safe and the things I have done before have become redundant tasks. I'm not happy living that way anymore, and that isn't the first time I have said that to myself. I want to make a change and the only way to do that is to go ahead and make it. So I made a list of a few things I want to do, some have deadlines and requirements but others are rather ambiguous so as to give myself more time and freedom and of course less stress as well. Rather than keeping them all general statements like "Eat healthier" I instead said something like "Eat one piece of fruit a day" or "Eat nuts one a week". Little changes in the same sentence make all the difference in actually getting things done. I left the file for this on my desktop so that it's always in view, but I password protected the file so that I can write anything I want there, without fear that someone might accidentally click it. I hope this is the start to changes in my life, and I hope that you too change yourself for the better.
       One of my goals is actually to take more photos, as that is something I used to enjoy quite a bit. Hopefully I actually do that, and hopefully I post some of those here.

Thanks for reading everyone,
