October had it's up and downs. I had to spend the majority of the money I had saved for the wedding on fixing my broken car, so that was pretty annoying. On the upside I'm back in the gym and feeling really good about it. I also had some amazing brands contact me - so plenty of good posts coming up!
Three blog posts I loved in October...
1) Sally - The Makeup Directory
2) Katy - KatyBelle
3) Sophie - Sophies Makeup
November Goals...
1) I had a sudden realisation this month that I've become a "glass half empty" kind of person. I've been feeling a little stressed and I started to look at every situation in a negative light. This month I'm going to try and think carefully before I react to situations, and to put it bluntly, just take things on the chin a little more.
2) I really want to try and get 3 blog posts up a week during November. I managed to gain over 100 new bloglovin' followers this month which is amazing, it makes me so happy to know that people enjoy my content enough to want to click the little follow button - that was definetly a high for October that made that horrid car bill a little more bearable.
3) I feel like when I mention something in these posts it gives me more motivation to do it. One thing I really need to do in November is sort out all the old posts lurking on this blog of mine. I can't get over the shocking photography, poorly written posts - and those broken links are killing me. I'm hoping I can go back through every post between now and the end of the year and make them the best they can be.
What are your goals for this coming month?
ah i can imagine how annoying it must've been to spend all the money getting your car fixed.. i think from time to time everyone lets the negativity get to them but they key is to know when that's happening so you can put a stop to it - this is one of my goals as well for the remainder of this year :)

I've just started doing posts like this. It really helps to have things written down somewhere doesn't it! I definitely need to start taking things on the chin a little more too, which is a lesson I've learned countless times through October x

I definitely need to make November a more positive month, I've got a lot of college work to do and I need to keep on top of it and not get too stressed, so I feel you with that one!

I've been a bit negative lately too and really need to get myself out of a rut.
ReplyDeleteWell done for all the extra followers I find it hard to build up a following but that's because I'm so inconsistent. Need to up my game a little. Feeling motivated after reading this and excited to read your up coming posts!
