New Years Resolutions

I've never failed a New Years resolution simply because I have never made any. I can't fail if I don't try so I never bothered. But this year I pulled out my notebook and plotted different ideas for possible goals and what I would do to achieve them. These were the four I picked and what I'm doing to stay motivated for them.

1. Workout more (eating healthy ties in with this one obviously although it not one of my specific written goals)
- Workout at least 3 times a week
- Follow fitness related Instagrams, Pintrest boards, and Twitter accounts.
- The "Pop Punk 5" workout (Via)
- Never skip a Monday because knowing me, I won't do it the rest of the week. 
- Find new workouts, keep it fresh. 

2. Drum more
- 15 minutes almost every day
- Keep my practice pad where I can see it
- Pictures of my drummer inspiration/music quotes (Pat Kirch from The Maine is my biggest inspiration <3)
- Watch drumming videos

3. Write more
- Write something or edit something almost every day
- Poems, blog posts, stories, journal entries
- Jar of journal prompts (from Pinterest)
- Read writing tip posts to motivate myself and better my writing. 

- ipod reminders so I don't forget about it
