Hello everybody and welcome to 2014 :) I don't know about you but whenever a new year starts, I always feel the urge to have a fresh start however I never actually do. In this post I am going to be sharing with you some ways that I am going to be having a "fresh start" this year and this way, I definitely can't back out.

All of the points I am going to be showing you are all going to be more or less related and the theme is to live your life to the full potential instead of just sitting around doing nothing. I think that in life, it is important that you are happy and I am in love with this quote that sits in my bedroom; It says:

"Blue Skies

Sunny Days

Love Life

Laugh with Friends

Sing & Dance

And be Happy"

First of all this year, I would like to start saying yes to a lot more opportunities because I just like to stick in my comfort zone however I am beginning to learn that new experiences are good for you and you can learn so much from just saying yes. If you don't know already, one of my biggest inspirations Zoella actually made a video related to this and that is where I got the idea from. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HG-WbtoAf2k&hd=1)

Also, I would like to be more organised whether this be physically for example on my computer or mentally. What I mean by being mentally organised is knowing whats going on around you and having some sort of sense of awareness. Hopefully this will make me think a little bit more before I do something potentially stupid.

As well as the quote you saw at the beginning of the post, I have a quote on my wall that says "Don't think. Just do it." I actually made this quote up my self because I think it sums up perfectly how to (again) say yes to more things. I want to start jumping in and doing things that I would never think twice about doing and just generally being an even more confident person.

Another thing I would like to do is spend more time with friends and family because they are not going to be around forever so it's best to create good memories now rather than wishing you did in the future. I am quite lucky in the fact that I have some lovely friends who are so nice to me and always listen when I need to talk and this brings me onto the next thing I would like to do which is being more positive and being a nicer person. As a normal teenager, I tend to moan a lot and complain about things that I don't really need to. I would like to stop doing this and I want to start spreading more positive and being nicer to the people around me. I have always believed that making a person smile is one of the best feelings in the world to I would like to stick to this and start living a happier life.

The last thing that I would like to achieve this year is obviously to continue with my blog and to start my youtube channel (youtube.com/user/katieproctorxo) It has always been a huge dream of mine to become a blogger and youtuber simply because it is something that I really enjoy doing and putting my effort into. I also want to be able to inspire people (as cheesy as that sounds) just as people like +Zoella, +Tanya Burr and +Sprinkleofglitter have inspired me.
