I want to become the best version of myself

[u/SaltyDarkness]

I know New Year’s resolutions are usually silly and forgettable. But this year I feel I achieved more than I have in the last 5 years. I guess I want to post here for accountability as I know me wanting something for myself isn’t the same as staying disciplined while trying to achieve that. Tomorrow when I get home I’m going to make out my 2025 vision board and hang it up in my room to remind me what I want and how close it is if I do what needs to be done rather than what I want to do when motivation leaves.

I am going to finally hit my goal weight. I lost 20 pounds this year and really learned more about how well I can control my eating and how much better doing so makes me feel.

I am going to read at least one book a month. I want to immerse myself in something more than social media and feed my brain.

I am going to get 10k steps at least 5 times a week.

I am going to get at least a B in my second semester of nursing school.

I am going to save consistently and budget responsibly.

I am going to make my bed every single day.

And lastly, I am going to stay off social media for 365 days and focus on what’s important in my life and participate daily in hitting my goals.

I have a great support system in my life and I attend therapy every other week so I know I have all the help I need to get me where I want in a year. I plan on using the app hello habit to track my progress and I hope I can look back and be proud of myself. I will never get where I want to be until I put myself first and help my future self out now.

Sometimes going cold turkey is the best thing :)

I recently did a two month “no social media” but kept Reddit. It’s just not the same if you keep it in my opinion. It’s not as bad as a lot of other apps but it has its own cons and keeps me attached to my phone some days.

i get it but it’s 109% social media

We'll wait for your update after 365 days. Do what is best! Looking forward to a better version of you. Good luck.

Congratulations on the weight loss. Society is strange in where something so trivial and unique to self is so defining. Good on you for continuing to grow beyond that. Keep the pattern of positivity going

I took my therapists advice from today and am waiting until New Year’s Eve since I’ll be home alone with no plans!! Gives me something to look forward to
