2020 achievements:

Despite 2020 being a year that took a turn for the worst, it was the year that I plucked up the confidence to begin my blog, Francesca’s Finds! Writing and running a blog has always been something I wanted to do, but never had the confidence to just do it! Since starting in October, it has truly been a joy and the support I have had has been amazing.🤍

In 2020, I also completed my degree in English Literature whilst battling floods and the pandemic, which meant I wasn’t able to attend a lot of my third year lectures – it was most definitely tough but is one of my greatest achievements yet!

Now let’s get into the resolutions!

✨ Drink more water 💧- Drinking more water is something I NEED to incorporate more, I can easily forget not to drink enough and it would be so beneficial for my skin and overall health.

✨ Save money 💰 – In 2021 I want to save more money and just prepare myself better for later life! To be able to move out and own my own home would be amazing, and all the decor and furniture won’t pay for itself!😉

✨ Exercising more and practising yoga🧘🏼‍♀️ – I need to better my workout routine for 2021 and actually stick to it, (which I know is easier said than done!) I find that whenever I’ve exercised I’m so much more motivated and it really helps with my mental health. I began Yoga in the first lockdown and I really enjoyed it, so it is something I will pick up again in 2021!

✨ Working on my career ⚡️ – Since finishing university and being in the pandemic, I decided to take some time out and so I got a job in retail which I have been loving as the team is just so great. However, I also want to begin working out how I will get a job in my desired industry, so I am excited for what 2021 will bring!

And there we have it! Thank you for joining me for a bonus blog post this week. I hope you have been able to get to know me a bit more, as I wanted to write this post to humanise my blog more, so we can continue growing this amazing and supporting blogging community! Don’t forget to share with me down below your 2021 aspirations!

See you next week, Francesca xx
