Bloganuary 7th: doing things differently

What could you do differently?

Where do I even start? There are so many things I could do differently. I could be doing things differently in good AND bad ways.

I could be doing a better job of prioritizing my health. Getting more steps in each day (hard to do freely in the winter) would be a start. Getting back to the gym more frequently, which I have slowly been reorganizing my time and I have gotten my gym bag ready, so I’m actually on the right track there. I could be eating better, making my meals instead of eating out or ordering delivery. I could be drinking more water every day, but plain water doesn’t have caffeine so I’ll just have to figure out an okay balance.

Another thing I could be doing differently is better focusing on my other non-health related goals. Better consistency at sitting down and writing outside of my blog posts. This means cutting time away from my gaming hobbies, but I think I’ll be okay with doing that since I’ve slowly come to terms with the fact that I just have too many to play. Same with reading books, actually.

I’m sure that I could be doing things differently to be a better friend. Reaching out more often, asking how things are going, trying to socialize more (but darn my naturally introverted personality, oh well). Similarly, I could be going out more and meeting new people. Kind of hard to find romance when you don’t go anywhere. Still, maybe someday. Getting to the gym could be the first step.

So many other things that could be different. I mentioned that I could be doing things differently in a bad way. Consider the fact that I used to smoke. I could go back to doing that, but I won’t. I could be drinking alcohol everyday, but I don’t because I just don’t find the appeal and can’t justify the expense. Which is silly considering the money wasted on games I’m not playing and overly priced fast food. Still, it could definitely be worse.

Well, these are just a few things that come to mind, which probably shows where my priorities are currently. Wish me luck!
