I always say you should never wait for the 1st January to make goals to better your life. You should make them right now. But it’s tradition to start them during the new year.
You can see how I did with my blog goals in 2016 and what my 2017 blog goals are, if you care lolz.
Anyway – that’s what the chat was about and I’d love to hear your thoughts on 2016 and your goals for 2017.

These were great!! One of mine is to join in one of these chats, its a must!! x
I agree, you don’t need to wait for the 1st January to begin reaching for your goals but at the same time I like the fresh feeling of a new year! I’d like to blog more consistently and improve my photos a bit this year x
Sick Chick Chic
Honestly I don’t do new year resolutions as I am a person who change when and where it’s appropriate. Why wait for the new year to change?
It’s so interesting to see everyone’s year end reflections and resolutions for the new year 🙂
