CLARITY.








Clarity.

We are already nearly a month in 2015.
And like most people I have goals I wish to accomplish. But first things first I'm...not going to 'Iggy' you don’t you worry, instead I’ll be sharing the things I've realised from the past year.

Kindness can be misconstrued for weakness.
Being nice is good. I think that a statement the majority of us can agree on. I personally would like to think of myself as a super-weird-but- nice, approachable, friendly, kind, lovely person. *places trumpet on lips*. Of course I have my off days/years. However this year I came to understand that there is a difference between being nice and being passive, as there are some individuals out there that misconstrue kindness for weakness. And I have to learn how to deal with that.

Extroverted Introvert.
I like my alone time and I like a lot of it. And that’s ok. I feel like I can deal social situations quite well, but I’m doing just that, ‘dealing with it’. From an outsiders perspective it may seem easy breezy beautiful but inside its a different story.

I just feel odd...like an alien in a chippy. I dunno if you've seen an alien in a chippy, boy-o-boy lemme tell you it ain't cute. I feel like a shouldn't be there, so I deflect my worries about my sanity through humor, isolation and crappy tv. So most of my time is spent alone with my thoughts, my family and a bit of Paddy from Take Me Out. 
As I grow up I progressively start to understand myself more and more. It’s like I’m on a date with myself. A really long, never ending, sometimes enjoyable, occasionally painful, inescapable date. And whilst being on this “date”, I've gained a sense of clarity, establishing what I like and what I definitely don’t like, what makes me comfortable and what doesn't. This year I have understood myself way more than ever, but I still have a lot to get to learn about myself and, really, life in general.

I think I'll create a separate blogpost dedicated to my social anxiety, which is what I guess I would call it.

Everyone is different.
This one is pretty simple. Everyone is different. Physically different, psychologically unique.
so
stop
comparing
yourself.

This is what I want for myself this year:


  1. Strengthen my relationship with God.
  2. Strengthen my relationship with myself.
  3. Be a better communicator 
  4. Build a better self-image
  5. Be more positive / less cynical
  6. Self expression (youtube/ art / blog)
  7. Blog 2 times a week.

Thanks for reading my dear,

Teaday xo

  1. Hey
    i love your photos; do you take them yourself? Like with a self timer? I'm so rubbish at that
    Your goals for this year are really inspiring too, especially the first one which I really need to work on. They're kind of similar to mine
    Good luck with them!
