2024 My New Year's Resolution as a Stay-at-Home-Mom - ASEAN Hive Community Challenge #90
Hi, ASEAN Hive Community! I am happy to share my New Year's resolution so here it is.
Back when I was single, I never made any New Year's Resolution but it was more on my travel goals for the next year. One consistent thing I made was to work more for my travel funds.
Now that I am a mother, my priorities are different now. As a new mom, I am so disorganized that I even neglected myself. No more self-care for the first two years of having two kids under two. I have to juggle my life as a mother and a housewife. I just wanted to do nothing and go to sleep. I feel so tired after giving birth to two babies. LOL! And I've been complaining a lot about doing the house chores and my insecurities.
In November 2023, I decided to buy a notebook to start my journal and bought some art materials and gadgets to start my creativity. I am happy to say that I have filled in my December monthly layout.

I am done creating my 2024 cover, January cover, and the January monthly layout which I will share it in another blog. I made sure to create a page for my 2024 New Year's Resolution.
Click the photo above to see what I wrote on my page, but here it is:
Ma résolution du Nouvel An
- Parler français - to speak French
- Ecrire en français - to write in French
- Fais du sport - to exercise
- 100 Squats par jour - 100 squats per day
- Zumba 30 minutes par jour
- 5K steps par jour
- Duolingo 15 minutes par jour
- To lose weight
- To be more creative, practice drawing
- Organize
- More savings with HBD, less expense
Sneak Peek of my Habit Tracker
I created this Habit Tracker in my journal so that I am accountable for doing things and checking everything. I included the few house chores I do every day. I am excited to fill in some colors.

I organized my things to welcome 2024. It is going to be busy in the next few months as I need to pack up some clothes again for the winter ski trip. Gosh, we just arrived from Paris a few days ago and I got anxious just doing a lot of laundry and folding the clothes.
As you can see my New Year's Resolution, it's more focused on the health side because I need to be physically ready for the winter ski trip. Also, my weight has been a dilemma for the past years after giving birth.
It's good to have a journal as I can write everything on paper. I am excited to design my journal every month as I am also planning to buy gouache paints, to pursue my creativity as part of my New Year's Resolution.
Consistency is the Key.

I jave been working on a yearly agenda of things I want to achive but looking at yours made me realize would be better on a monthly bases to track things down, lots of plans and goals for 2024 specially focus on Hive with so many projects going on like VSC, good times ahead for Hive in 2024 🤑💪
Yes, Hive is also one of the goals. HBD and Hive savings for the win. :D

Thank you @asean.hive :D
Your journal and desk are very neat. I love the habit tracker. Maybe I should do something similar. All the best in achieving your goals in 2024. Happy New Year!
Btw I can relate to this:
I felt the same when my kids were very young. But my daughter is in her teens now and my son will turn 10 in a couple of weeks. Physically it's not so tiring anymore but I have different parenting challenges 😅 . All the best to you sis, you did great!
So far, the journal and desk are the neat things you can see in our house, the rest are in a disaster. hahaha!
Haha I understand, having teenagers means you're on a different level of parenting. Right now, I have 3 and 2 years old, hopefully, I will regain my physical strength.
Goodluck on your New Year's Resolution! 🎊
May you fulfill them all. Health is indeed weath.
Thank you so much. As always, health is wealth. :D
Ohooo, getting ready for the year 2024 ha. That's awesome! I'm so jealous though you are doing good with your french, I think. Soon, baka may French/English tag kana rin sa article mo here ha (≧▽≦)
Yong desk at notebook ko lang ready sa 2024. Still the house is chaotic pa rin dahil sa toys everywhere. kaloka. haha soon may pa translate to FR na ako. charot lang. haha

That's a lot of goals, but I think all within reach, especially with such pencil skills and all the incredible notebook work. After creating such beautiful lists and tables, I think I'd be motivated to follow them. Something about pencil and paper just can't be replaced by anything digital.
I love opening my notebook so I am motivated to reach my goal one day at a time. :D
Your journals are soo cuteee, it was so neat hehe. It's really good to put down on our journals everything we wanted, especially our goals!
Thank you so much. Looking at this journal keeps me at peace.
Thanks for this though It's way past the voting stage. I happen to get attracted with the high upvote and I know it must be something special. You've got good ideas here. Nice.
Thank you so much. Keeping a journal makes me more consistent. :D
