Following an overwhelmingly positive response from my Twitter poll that I should start a new monthly goals series on A Woman’s Confidence, I’ve decided to share my March 2020 goals.
Each month, I’m going to share both my personal and blogging goals. This is mostly to track my progress and hold myself accountable but also to share with you all what I’m reaching for. Hopefully, this series will help you think of new goals for your own life, too.
I’ve always enjoyed reading monthly goals posts, so here’s my first ever March goals blog post.
Personal goals
1. Get back to waking up at 6am
Since working from home most days, I’ve found myself slipping out of my routine of going to bed at 10pm and waking up at 6am. However, this morning routine helped me be way more productive, so I need to get that self-discipline back.

2. Dedicate more time to mental health
Even though I’m good at self-care and taking time for myself, I sometimes neglect my mental health if I’m feeling down or exhausted. When I’m feeling low, I’m going to make a point of writing my thoughts down, which should hopefully help with my mental health.
3. Do yoga most days/every day
I love yoga and I really want to make a point of incorporating a yoga practice every day or at least most days. After I’ve completed a yoga workout, my mind and body feel so much better. Plus, it’s great at relieving stress, which is pivotal when work is busy.
Blogging goals
1. Update slider images
To keep my blog looking fresh, I want to update my slider images. This should help change up the look of my blog and give me a chance to take some more photos with my camera. I feel like I’m getting better at taking flatlay pictures, so I’m excited to take some more photos.
2. Install a font plug-in
Another way to keep my site looking new is to install a font plugin to switch up some of my heading fonts within my blog posts. Fonts are a really good way to add more character to the look of a website, so I’d love to play around with some new fonts on my site. Suggestions for font plug-ins are welcome!
3. Find new bloggers to connect with
I’d love to connect with more bloggers, especially beauty bloggers like myself. I enjoy reading different content and building my blogging network, so I’m hoping to discover some new bloggers this month, whether that’s on social media or through different sites.
4. Schedule tweets
I used to be on the ball with scheduling tweets but I’ve been pretty rubbish recently. And that needs to change. I want to get back to having loads of tweets scheduled.
I’ve deliberately not set myself too many goals this month because I need to be able to achieve them alongside all the ongoing things I want to do with my life. Setting realistic, manageable goals is key and I’m hoping to succeed with my March goals.
Yessss to more yoga! I guess that will tie in with your mental health time too.
Definitely!
Great goals!
Looking forward to seeing how you do with them!

Thank you! x
Good luck with your goals! Making yourself have a set sleeping routine when you work from home is so hard. I need to get back in the habit of scheduling my tweets too x

Yes! I find myself slipping into bad habits and having a very unstructured routine, which needs to stop! Lol same here x
You have such a great mix of personal and blogging goals. Not sure what app you use for scheduling tweets, but I really like buffer because it is free and I can schedule up to 10 at a time (both from mobile or my laptop).
I normally use Tweetdeck when I’m on my laptop. I know it sounds weird but I don’t like scheduling tweets from my phone? I normally do all my blog stuff on my laptop so Tweetdeck is great for that. Maybe I should switch things up a little, though!
Good luck with all of your goals lovely! I need to install a font plugin too, I find the google fonts to be so boring. It’d be fab to be able to personalise my blog a little more xo

Thank you! I thoroughly agree with you, I’d love to switch up some of my posts with a pretty font, although, I don’t know what plugins are good
I feel like taking some of your goals and implementing some for my own. I definitely want to update my blog’s theme. I’ve had too many issues and need to move on. I also want to schedule more tweets too. I love twitter, it’s my first preference now for social media and I want to add more “thoughts and musings” other than my usual “inspired” type scheduled tweets.

I think a theme update – or at least switching up your current theme a bit – can make a huge difference to the look and feel of your blog. Definitely! I used to be great at scheduling tweets and recently, I’ve become pretty lax, so I need to get back on it. I think that’s a great idea! x
I love the goals you’ve set for this month! My recommendation for a fonts plugin is “Easy Google Fonts” since I think it’s super easy to use.
Thank you! I’m definitely going to check that plugin out
