Pursue your dreams and enjoy the unfamiliar
I know it’s still barely the first week of 2019, but I would like to know how your goals are doing so far? Have you made goals that are sticking? Or 4 days in you feel that everything has already fallen apart?
Well, today I wanted to share with all my lovely followers a few tricks and tips that have helped me make goals and have them actually stick.
Happy October 1st! And Happy Day 1 of Blogtober!
Whattt, may you ask?
Believe me when I say I know what you’re thinking, what in the heck is Blogtober. Well, easy answer, it’s a play on word for blogging in October. And by blogging in October, I mean EVERYDAY…bro.. Sorry, I’ve been watching the Shane Dawson / Jake Paul series on YouTube intensely. It was a necessary evil to make that awful joke.
Only 2 more days until my book is officially out! YAY!
Today I’m looking ahead and want to share with you what else I have in store for Lost with Yvonne.
It’s amazing the many things that can change in a year, to a month, to a week, to even a day. I mean my book is going to officially be out in 5 DAYS! And I have officially been living in Arizona for 2 years this month!
This to me is so crazy.
Did I ever think that I was going to end up in Arizona? No. I did not think that whatsoever. It was the same with me never ever thinking I’d have lived in South Dakota, but I did that too.
And onto Day 4 of my 14-day book launch! Today’s blog post will mostly be a listen to my latest podcast episode 13 post.
And if you didn’t know, I do have a Podcast Show called Lost with Yvonne where I talk about life and pretty much anything that pops into my mind.
Happy third week of the New Year! How are you doing on your Resolutions my friends?
So far things have been good and that makes me happy.
In today’s post I want to share with you my Resolutions Video for my first video of the year for YouTube! YouTube consistency is one of many goals for the year. I was very proud I was able to get this video out and wanted to share it with all of you!
First and foremost, HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope you had a great 2017 and are ready to kick start your 2018 into full gear! I know I’m ready to make ish happen and start my 2018 New Year’s Resolutions!
And with every new year comes mine and probably millions of other people’s yearly traditions of New Year’s Resolutions.
That’s right, I’m ready to start the year off great and start focusing on my goals in all aspects of my life. And my first way of doing so is to make New Year’s Resolutions at the start of every new year. While a lot of the times my goals don’t really change too much from year to year, I still enjoy having a New Year’s Resolution for the start of every year and throughout the year I also focus on smaller goals to overall reach these resolutions.
Hello my lovely travelers!
It has been far too long. I’ve been dealing with a lot of crazy life things. It’s been a bit hectic and I’m still trying to catch up and recover.
But I realized something that always helps me get through some tough times and good times is by writing.
I’ve been a little busy with life lately. Oh and it’s my one year anniversary since I’ve had lostwithyvonne.com! YAY!
Any who, I have a big trip coming up this weekend that I can’t wait to explore and then share with you! Since I’ve been doing lots of planning and working I haven’t had a whole ton of time to write up a great travel post to share. So instead I decided to just introduce you all to two new members of my family. My Kittens Dottie and Dolly.
I know it’s been awhile since I’ve done any kind of blogging, or even social media-ing. But I have good reason, promise.
I’m sure as you see from the title there was a big move on my part. From San Diego to South Dakota, this born and raised So-Cal girl made the big move to Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
Why South Dakota you may ask? (Random is what I get from most people) Well, I got a job opportunity at their local news station in Sioux Falls!
And that is some serious big news, BIG dreamer news.
I graduated college about two years ago and I studied Broadcast Journalism for a solid 3 ½ years. I did everything from interning at news stations in San Diego, wrote for a local newspaper in town, produced my own 30-minute live newscast, and reported on so many amazing news stories.
Instead of pursing my degree right out of college, I decided to take on the full-time office job that could pay my bills and give me more work experience. While my last job gave me such great opportunities and I worked with some amazing people there, I was never fully satisfied.
It was time to face the fears of leaving family and friends and go into the mysterious world of Broadcast news. I took that scary leap and reached out to news stations and I got the job offer for a news station in South Dakota.
I won’t be reporting on camera just yet, but that won’t stop me from one day getting back into what I loved so much when I went to school.
My amazing boyfriend Alex was accepted to South Dakota State University and has made the move along with me and I couldn’t be happier. The transition was made that much smoother.
All I want to say is to honestly never give up on your dreams. I have been out of the broadcast news business for over two years, but that didn’t stop me from pursuing my dreams and making this my time to shine.
I’ve been scared, I’ve been rejected, but it all becomes worth it when you feel your life falling into place and when you feel like your dreams are fully coming true. I’m feeling at home, I feel like I belong. And I couldn’t be happier.
I do miss all my friends and family in California and the wind chill can really knock you down here in the mid-west, but when you are finally seeing that you’re on the right path to greatness everything just feels right.
My dreamer mentality will never fade and I will keep on reaching for the stars. And I hope you all keep dreaming and striving for the best because you can really surprise yourself and you too can make all your dreams come true.
Keep dreaming my family, friends and fellow travelers. Thanks for all the support and love <3
