My 12 Things For Year 2020

Posted on Dec 30 2019 - 6:45am by tweenselmom

Are you ready for your New Year’s resolutions or are you, like others, say that you are already weary of it?

As for me, if I may share it, I don’t have one either, not because I don’t believe in resolutions but because I’d like to call it more as my list of challenges come Year 2020.

My 2020 list of challenges to nurture my self and make a positive difference to others

Year 2020 is a big deal for me because first, it’s the start of a new decade. With God’s help, this decade will mean years of milestones for us, as a family and hopefully for my personal growth. Before this decade will be over, there will be huge differences with my kids turning from teens to young adults, when they are about to finish high school, go to college and then get their first jobs, and these transitions will matter to us as parents. Imagine all these huge events, right?

Personally, I hope and pray to be a much better person, to myself, to my husband, and to the people around me, so I plan to study more, work more, and discover more about this life and then make positive differences to other people.

To cut it short, here’s my 2020 list of challenges that may also inspire you to make your own and I really hope that you’ll also share it with me and the others. These are my personal challenges that some may think are too menial or simple. That’s because I’m simple and I believe that from these simple things arise more complicated and bigger things that I can achieve because I choose to start small and strive to finish them big. As they say, don’t bite more than you can chew, right?

Seeing this list makes me excited about the year to come and how I will enjoy completing them. These, plus so many plans on the side in my work, in my blog and the blogging community I manage, make me feel hyped and I can’t wait to welcome this incoming year and start.

  1. 12 books to read
  2. 12 recipes to discover and share
  3. 12 different kinds of cupcakes to bake
  4. 12 new kinds of food to try
  5. 12 months to reach savings goal for the year
  6. 12 new movies to watch
  7. 12 new museums to visit
  8. 12 works of charity

What about you? I hope you are having a blast thinking of your own list but before anything else, before you leave this blog to write your list, I want to greet you a Merry and Happy New Year to you and your family!

    Wow, such a nice list. I did for mine too. I would love to blog a lot and am thinking of reviving my interest in music.

    I’m not making lists this year, but am cheering those who do. I’m still working on the same goal; third year running. Third year is the charm, right? 🙂 Happy New Year!

    These are great goals! I especially love the 12 works of charity – I’m adding that to my list as well! My kids and I volunteer at a local animal shelter every few weeks, but I feel we could do more.

    What a great way to list the things you would like from the new year! This is such a great food for thought! I feel like most times I am just struggling through it, maybe if I listed with numbers like you have done I would get a lot more done!

    This decade is a big one for us since our young children will become teenagers and adults. I am a little sad that they are growing up so fast, but I’m excited to see what’s in store for the future!

    Happy 2020!

    Seems like you had a pretty good 2020 start.

    Charity is really appreciated, as we can do it a bit little from our part.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Excited about the new museums to visit. One of my favorite things to do as a family is to check out local attractions.

    Now that is an interesting list. Loved the ’12 things’ idea. Should try for myself too.

    I’m not normally one for making actual resolutions but these are really great

    This is a great list of challenges! I like the idea of 12 of everything since you figure if you do one a month, it makes it so much more manageable.
