2022 Resolutions

1/2/2022

0 Comments

 
     With the end of 2021 finally passed and as we enter our third year of a global pandemic, I made a self conscious decision to decide on what my 2022 resolutions would be early. I have been feeling in a slump the 2nd half of the year, and whether that was because of my surgery and not being 100% myself, or the never ending changes going on in our world, I knew I wanted to give 2022 the year to beat. One of those resolutions: create more. So here I am and here are my 2022 Resolutions.

     1. Create more - whether it is with my camera, my iPad, my words or just my hands, I want to spend 2022 working on the crafts I cherish. My photography definitely has taken a back seat and even more so, this little piece of the internet with my blog and my YouTube channel. I love creating content, I just think I got lost a little along the way. In 2022, I want to work on more photo projects, I want to write more (maybe even get a jumpstart on the book that has been playing around in my head for oh so long), I want to shoot more, I want to design more. 
     2. Be okay with change - I never really noticed I had a problem with change until this year. Or maybe, I did but I never really acknowledged it. Anytime there is a slight change to the system, my anxiety goes up. This year, and really ever since COVID-19 became a global pandemic, change is a constant presence in my life. Working in the medical field, change was daily at the beginning, then weekly, then monthly. I like having a plan and those are hard to come by and stick with when you are facing tweaks to your every day life. 2022 - I want to be okay with the constant change and to stop let it have control of me. 
     3. Don't be afraid to say something - I live my life in a way where I don't say what I probably should say. I am a people pleaser, so I want to help people and not be a burden (hi, there's that anxiety again), but I've realized - this is hurting me emotionally and mentally. I am holding back my thoughts and feelings because I don't want to make someone else feel bad, but in turn its making me feel bad. 
     4. Be productive - I struggled A L O T with productivity the last two years (can I still blame the pandemic?!) and it sucks, because I want to create more, i want to do more, but I just... don't. I hate that I feel like I abandoned writing or creating youtube videos or my photography. Those are all key parts of who I am, and I feel like I have been neglecting them. In 2022, I want to get back to creating more and pushing myself. 
     5. Smile more - Growing up - I H A T E D my smile, the right side of my mouth lifts higher than my left side so it shows my gums more. On top of that - my teeth have never been perfect and about 4-5 years ago at a work party, I dove too far down in the pool and chipped a small piece of my front tooth, so add that to my insecurity list. I never wanted to smile with my teeth but when I am happy, like genuinely and honestly happier, my smile is my entire face, so I stopped myself from feeling that. Recently though, I have been falling more and more in love with my smile and in turn, I have been smiling more and more with my entire body. In 2022, I want to continue to fall in love with my smile and keep smiling more. 
     6. Learn more about my beliefs - I am a completely different person from when I started this little blog 6 years ago and in that, my beliefs have shifted. In 2022, I want to delve more into what I believe and learn even more than what I already know. 

Alongside these 6 resolutions, there are a couple more closer to my heart I would like to work on, so I am really shaping 2022 to be THE year. Hopefully I can uphold these resolutions and start working on them immediately. What are your 2022 resolutions? Are they the same as last year? Are they new?
