I cannot believe it at all that it is September tomorrow. We have 4 months left of the year and I just cannot comprehende where the year has gone?! Also, Happy Bank Holiday everybody, what are you planning on doing today?!
This month I want to set myself some realistic goals so next month I can look back and see all I have accomplished. The months whizz by so fast it feels like I never get anything done so hopefully this way I can document and look back and see how I have done!
Life Goals
- Start my new job – I have been waiting to start my new job since June but I have been waiting for references and HR so hopefully this month I will finally get started!
- Start college, get accepted for the busary – I am super excited to be making a huge career change and going back to college to study an access course in science! Unfortunately if my bursary doesn’t go through I will not be able to go this year so fingers crossed I can start this and get on with it!
- Start my personal statement – hand in hand with starting college, if all goes well I really need to get cracking with my personal statements for uni, if you have any tips please let me know!
Fitness Goals
- Gym 3 x week – I have been hitting the gym pretty good this month but with my scheldule changing I like to think I will be able to keep it up!
- Drink 3-4litres water daily – This isn’t very hard for me but recently I have been going for more diet coke and less water which definately needs to change!
- Lose 5-10lbs – I really want to be able to shift 5-10lbs this month, I haven’t seen the scale move for a while now, however I am getting stronger which is a bonus!
- Get 100kg on the Inverted Leg Press – Just a small goal but I would like to get a new PR on the leg press and finally hit 100kg, currently at 85kg, I am positive I can hit this during the month!
Blogging Goals
- 75 Bloglovin Followers – I recently just hit 50 followers which was amazing and would be nice to end September on 75!
- 2 Posts a week – I haven’t really been that dedicated the last month so hopefully being more organised I can get 2 posts out a a week
- Hit 300 views in a day – I recently just got 200 views in a day, and I know it’s only small but it was an amazing achievement for me and my blog!
- Hit 1000 followers on Twitter – Currently at 909, I would like to see September end on 1k, what an amazing milestone that would be!








I hope your new jobs goes well and the you get accepted in to college. It’s nice to write and set goals sometime so that you can tick them off as you go and give yourself a little pat on the back.
Keep at it with your blogging goals, I find that Twitter is my best friend for getting views 🙂
Good luck with your new job and college application, I am envious of your fitness goals because just looking at them I feel tired lol (I am such a lazy a**). You’re doing well with your blog I think do what you can and all will be fine.
Good luck with all your goals! It sounds like you have a very busy month ahead of you. I’m hoping to juggle my two jobs and take more photos! x
Great to have goals, this has inspired me to think about what I want to achieve next month.
1.Keep up with regular reading with my eldest when she goes into Juniors
2. Try not to stress, thinking of the very worst really aint that bad as I would be set free from all the stress of being stressed.
3. Run at least every other day as I really need to loose a stone of mummy weight. I have creeped up to nearly eleven stone eeeeeek.
Enjoy your week it is good to have goals xxxx
Great post, that’s actually got me thinking, I should jot down a few goals myself, especially blogging wise it would serve as good inspiration for the month ahead! Ps I can’t believe it’s september tomorrow!!!
I find that setting goals for each month really help’s, like you I want to hit a weight lifting goal and grow my followers a little if possible. But more than anything having fun whilst aiming for your monthly goal’s is the main thing, oh and very best of luck with the life goals 🙂 xo
I’ve never set monthly goals but it sounds like a great idea, more practical that the new year resolutions! I would love to get a little bit faster, to start university and continue blogging!
Have an amazing day gorgeous! xox

Great to have some goals to aim for. I’m sure that’s where I’m going wrong!
Sounds like some great goals you’ve got there! Good luck with it all! 🙂
