Dear 2020,

Nu ka. A new decade is upon us, and there are new challenges and adventures upon us. Now I'm not one to create goals or resolutions because I feel like that puts a lot of pressure, on me. But I am a huge believer in intentions. I create intentions I intend to achieve. (someone copy right that) If you want to see what my 20 intentions are for 2020, keep on reading. Dear 2020, I have a feeling you're going to be something special.

1. I will lose 20lbs in 2020. As cliche as fitness goals are and everyone is on the health kick train. There is something really rather refreshing with setting specific targets for you to achieve.

2. Be financially smart! Do you really know where all your money is actually going? You swipe your credit card and all you see is the never-ending cycle of bills and taxes to repay. I want to know where my money is going and be much more aware of my spendings. Because living in Chicago is not cheap and spending 5$ on a coffee... is a bit much.

3. Eat mindfully + intuitively. Fuel your body with healthy, and nourishing food!

4. Follow a slightly strict no-buy policy! Only buy when you really need something in your life, and even then ask, if you need this in your life!

5. Journal/write every day! It's therapeutic, liberating and there's something so old school about writing from pen to paper! Trust me. Try this one out.

Alright, we made it through the typical ones, let's jazz it up!

6. Sing + dance more! This one is just fun. Everyone needs a mini dance party at some point!

7. Be kinder to people. Hey, the world can be mean and scary place. We don't need that kind of energy, ok? So be nice. "If you see a chance to be kind to someone tomorrow, take it. I think we need it." Well said Brad Pitt, well said.

8. Take baby steps towards being environmentally cool and friendly! Whoever said there's no planet B I applaud you for that saying. Not that I'm thinking of being full vegan anytime soon. (although kudos to you) I will bring my metal straw and reusable cup everywhere. Be kind to Mother Earth, and she will be kind to us.

I want to take this moment to say my prayers for Australia, I can't imagine what you are going through but my heart is with you all. Please donate anything you can. This is a prime example of what happens when we neglect what our planet is telling us. Thank you.

9. Make time for friends. I have some dope friends and I want to see them more and gain inspo from them. So if you're reading this, hey!

10. Stay cultural! I'm truly lucky in the sense that there's always to check out in Chicago. It's time to discover more of the epic music scene in Chicago!

We're halfway there!

11. Solo travel! I travel a lot. But I want to explore more on my own! Hey NewYork or Jackson Hole, you think you have room for me?

12. Dinner parties? Nah, ski dinner parties are the new thing. Hey Kiara, ski meetup soon? No surprise there, but I am a huge ski bum so I can and I will host a ski party, interested? Cause I am!

13. Learn to play more on my guitar, actually.

14. Edit my life more and stop being so sassy. Well this more for me, but whether that's from things I own or what I do in a day, I want to edit so I can get as much done in the most efficient way possible.

15. Save up, buy less.

16. Write a book! 2020, #makeithappen

17. Be an adult more... and don't complain about it.

18. Learn something new every day!

19. Move out...

20. Start a YouTube channel. Coming soon!

Thanks for making it this far! I hope you can take away something from this list and implement it in yours. As always thank you for reading. If you have any intentions, goals or aspirations to share, send them over to @brigssssss on Insta! I would love to read them! The hashtag of the year or until hashtags are deemed "not cool" is #makeithappen. Let me know what you want to #makeithappen! Until next time, don't forget to stay rad and keep being curious!
