I just found a list I wrote when I was 21 about 22 things I wanted to do whilst I was 22, I’m now 23. Shall we see how many of them I actually managed to achieve?
- Go to Italy ✔️ I went in the November of this year, so yay!
- Read Alison Weir/Philippa Gregory
- Keep a succulent alive ✔️ I am the proud mother of not just one, but five succulents!
- Film more fun videos For those of you who don’t know, I tried a BookTube channel for about a year, but it wasn’t for me.
- Do more of what makes me happy ✔️ I’m trying to do this as often as I can.
- Go out and take more photographs
- Read what I want to, when I want to ✔️ Abolishing having a set TBR helped with this!
- Go on my phone less
- Be okay with being out of my comfort zone
- Write more ✔️ Posting twice a week on my blog has helped with that!
- Draw more ✔️ Love using ProCreate on my iPad for my drawings.
- Find beautiful places to exist
- Find the creativity of my childhood
- Journal ✔️ I think I bought a journal shortly after creating this list, although I should write in it more.
- Stop being a worrier and just live
- Be happy with myself ✔️ I have become a lot more comfortable in my own skin recently.
- Watch more classic films ✔️ I’m loosely ticking this one… I’ve seen one or two in the last year… oops.
- Meet more friends in Wiltshire ✔️ At least four friends here now, yay!
- Watch Les Mis ✔️ It was good!
- Be okay with going places alone ✔️ I’m even planning a holiday alone, so this one is achieved!
- Smile more and laugh are things that are scary
- Experience more ✔️ I think this kind of comes with time anyway.
Out of 22 to dos, I have completed 13 of them over nearly two years. I don’t think that’s too bad?
It is not bad at all! Stopping being a worrier is one hell of a challenge, I’m struggling with that as well. But travelling alone is so GOOD, you’ll love it!
Being a worrier is probably the hardest thing to stop being!
You’ve done loads of it!
I’d recommend Alison Weird over Philippa Gregory, especially if you like a greater deal of accuracy in historical fiction.
Get you going places alone! I’d be far too nervous.

Ohh yes I’ve always heard excellent things about both of them!
This is such a great idea and fun thing to look back to. It’s so easy to forget how much we achieved and this can be a great reminder!
I think i might actually do this kind of list for 2019, even though January is coming to an end already 😳😂
Never to late, it’s fun to make a list you can look back on one day!
Not too bad, just over 50% which I think is great!
You’re right, not too bad of an achievement!
