2024 Goals

2024 is a crazy year to write. 8 years after I graduated high school, the year I turn 26, meaning I have 7 months to figure out health insurance for myself... anyways, lets not dwell on that! I have some big goals for this year and I'm ready to tackle all of them after a very healing 2023!

Read 10 Books:

I hope to read more but I am going to continue the goal of at least 10 a year. I also want to read every physical book I own that I haven't read yet. I want to practice ~sustainable~ reading in 2024. After reading my physical TBR list, I'm gonna get a library card!

Try 10 New Foods:

Some food are my list are; Okra, Bok Choy, Guava, Lychee, Leeks, and Kelp. I also want to start going to new and exciting restaurants more often!

Start Exercising Again:

I am always on my feet but I totally neglected intentional movement in 2023. My body is craving the the mental and physical therapy of exercise. I want to get back into yoga and hot girl walks!

Financial Goals

Pay Off Credit Card:

I paid almost all of my credit card off in 2023. I had just a little more to pay off in 2024 and I did it! In the first 28 days of 2024, I paid off over $750 in credit card debt! I want to send a little while with my credit card at zero and then I want to apply for a credit card that will help with travel or rewards or something along those lines!

800 or Higher Credit Score:

Through my hard work of paying off my credit card, I have raised my score to 793. At the beginning of 2023 it was at 715. That's an increase of 78 points in a little over a year! I'm hoping with continuing to pay off my car and student loans on time, and maybe opening a new credit card, I can get it over 800!

Open a HYSA:

I actually just did that today! I wanted to open a separate savings account that would work more for me, I will reserve the money in that account for emergencies and fun things like travel and experiences. I opened the account with Betterment; the same bank I have my Roth IRA through.

Eco-Goals

• Invest in a reusable dermaplaner! I hope to purchase Leaf Shave's dermplaner; I have their Leaf Razor and I love it.

• Get a library card

• Participate in a beach clean-up

Things I'm Manifesting for 2024:

• Travel

• Going to a concert (or two)

• A full time job with benefits :)

Have a wonderful year everyone!
