Overall, 2019 was an amazing year! Although I hit a few bumps (which I’m sure I’m not alone in that), I learned a ton about my strengths and weaknesses; I learned what happens when you move ahead of God; I birthed a beautiful baby girl; and I fell more madly in love with Big Zaddy, lol!

Now that 2020 is here, I’ve forced myself to sit down and not just make a list of resolutions but also to write out strategies to help me meet those goals. Even further, I’ve solicited accountability partners that I trust and who have permission to speak into my life and call me out on my crap. I went as far as creating a few consequences and incentives to motivate me to stay on task!

I must admit…my list of goals for the new year is rather large and even a bit vulnerable. Nevertheless, here are 22 of my favorites:

1. Wake up before my kids to spend alone time with God and myself before the chaos.
2. Serve those around me more and intentionally make disciples.
3. Stop apologizing for my greatness, for pursuing dreams, having our platform or having boundaries!

4. No longer bend on my boundaries and accept that I’m not for everyone. 🤷🏾‍♀️
5. Put an expiration date on some of my goals. (I’m setting alerts in my phone calendar to keep me on task.)
6. Be stressless, and try to control less.
7. Have a few adventures!
8. Take more alone time without guilt to become a better version of myself.
9. Build my social media presence so that I can impact the lives of others through transparency — pointing everything back to Christ.
10. Read 2 books a month.
11. Become better at time management.
12. Become more organized and productive.
13. Commit to our diet and exercise as a family.
14. Love Demario in his love language more!
15. Be more intentional with my kids and with shaping their futures.

16. Baby, maybe? 🤔
17. Speak life into myself.
18. Be more vulnerable with those who I know loves me unconditionally and don’t feel the pressure to ALWAYS be the strong friend!
19. Judge others less.
20. Reevaluate my heart more.
21. Work out the kinks in relationships with family and friends I’ve been stiff-arming because of pride!
22. Trust God’s timing, purpose, plan, and process!

It is my prayer that the year 2020 brings about holiness, boldness, self-love, and a servant’s heart for you all! I love ya!

Let’s check in on each other this year to make sure we’re making changes and fulfilling our purpose!
