Pulse for February 2018

Is 2018 going by really fast or what?

As much as January really took it’s time, February is here and I am grateful as always.

The last time I wrote a ‘Pulse for a month’ post was in August 2017. Staying off writing my goals was not intentional but if you have been a reader for a while then you probably have an idea why I stopped.

From August last year, I got a whole new experience of what planning means and also had to learn how to handle your emotions when life interrupts your plans.

At the moment, I feel like things are gradually getting back to normal and the best way to find out is ‘to try’. So, here I am giving this a shot.

Just incase you have not read one of these on here, I basically share my monthly goals on the first of every month and look back on how I fared in the past month. It is a good way to monitor progress and leaving it here makes me accountable.

I have blogged since my last pulse post but here are some of the things I look forward to this month:

Self-love: February is the month of love and I am first an advocate for self-love before giving love. You basically need to have love before giving it. So, this is here as a reminder to do something for myself everyday in February. You should try it too.

Post Scheduling & Pictures: Because I like to write and post immediately an idea comes, it has been kind of difficult to write only what I have scheduled in my blog planner. This is not a bad thing as it just means I have more ideas. However, I intend to be intentional about sticking with my post schedule.

Asides using stock photos, I plan to get better at using my own images. Still trying a lot on my own, making mistakes and finding ways to correct them.

Read a book: I am excited about the self imposed ‘Read One Book a Month’ challenge and I did pretty well in January. This month, I will be reading another book which I intend to share in a post later in the month.

Personal Development: I am currently looking out for ways to improve my interests and skills. This will be continuous process will take a lot of research.

Indulge in a new past time: I am at work for like 8 hours every weekday but I intend to find a new interest. I feel like this is the best time because I do not currently have any telenovela or TV series I am following.

Health Goals: I shared my Lazy guide to a healthy lifestyle already but I will add staying off white bread in February 2018. I tried this in January but ended up having it twice. Every other health routine in my lazy guide.

Share you thoughts

Do you have short term goals for this month?

I will love to read from you
