New Year, new decade, new goals. New Year’s Eve rolled around and the questions about new year’s resolutions popped-up but I had no answer to give. 2010 was a BIG year for me, I checked off many of my bucket list items and I achieved all the goals I had set out for myself. So when 2011 came swooping in, it caught me by surprise that my list was essentially complete, all of my boxes had been checked; I graduated from college, traveled out of country, landed a job, and saved some money.
It is a little daunting to look at a blank slate, especially a slate that was once a list that took 22 to years to complete. What other worthy goals could grace my life check list? Well that’s maybe where I need some help. I need some help redefining my goals, discovering my new found potential.
General ideas are floating around in my head but nothing solid. The thought of one day going to Graduate school is somewhat appealing to me. Traveling some more sounds like a great goal but it is so hard to decide where to go.
I do know that I want to put some effort toward strengthening my friendships and relationships. Now that school can’t get in the way of my free time, I feel I owe it to reconnect with those who have been great friends over the years.
I also want to expand my photography portfolio. I feel like I have plateaued and my photography has become stagnant. I want my photos to stop people in their tracks and evoke strong emotions. I want to be more consistent with my photographic work and I want to become more adept when it comes to posing and directing people.
As for long term goals in the next Decade and beyond, I feel I have the common goals; get my own place, maybe get married, climb the career ladder. But as for now I am completely undecided, nothing has been set in stone.
Hopefully as the year progresses, resolutions and goals will formulate . . . but for the time being I will just exist.
