“Whenever you want to achieve something, keep your eyes open, concentrate and make sure you know exactly what it is you want. No one can hit their target with their eyes closed.” ― Paulo Coelho, The Devil and Miss Prym

I believe that setting goals make us wish for improvement. We do it because we want to do better and push ourselves leaving our comfort zone and hopefully see a little success. Truth be told, goals make us be the best version ourselves – it makes us work even harder and get bigger and bigger every day. However, this month I’m not setting any goals. Let me tell you why.

When autumn comes everything changes and I’m not talking about the weather. It’s the beginning of a new academic year and all the worries, the work and the late nights start becoming our routines again. 

The beginning of this year was special: I posted for the first time on this blog and it all started with some blogging goals I wanted to accomplish. It’s now the beginning of March which means that two entire months are gone so I wanted to reflect on how I have been doing and if I’ve been achieving my blogging goals.

This year I seem to be setting myself a few goals and thing I want to achieve but I have no idea if I will. However, I’m going to do my best as always. Starting university last September made me realise how times is flying by as I still remember when I went to primary school and how excited I was. I started wondering myself where I’d be in 5 years from now and that got me into 5 things I want to have done by that time.

Everyone should have goals because those are the ones who make you fight for the things you wish the most. This year I thought I didn’t have any specific goals but when I found myself thinking “this year I want to do this, this and this”, I actually realised that I do and that’s what I’m sharing with you today.
