Goals

Hello everyone!  Well, shame on me.  I say I'm going to do something, then BAM!  I get hit with a lot of random life things that get in the way.

Anyway...

Can we talk about goals for a second?  I always think I have a very long list of items that I want to take care of and clear an understanding of what it takes to get there.

Once I take a step back and really take a look at the items that need to be done, I never set plans into place to get them checked off of my very long list of items that need to be done.

Take for instance my Etsy Shop.  I have a running goal of course increasing sales.  Of course the first thing I thought of in order to accomplish this, is to increase the amount of items in my shop.

Currently, I have 57 items.  I would LOVE to have 100 items at all times in my shop.  I once read for every 100 views you should receive a sale.  So... the more items to look at, the more likely you are to get a sale.  Right?  Does that make sense?

Well, how do I get to that 100 item mark?  Make stuff...  That would be the best way right?

So... Here is the plan.

1. Set a deadline.
1. I'm going to say by the of July, I would like to have at least 100 items in my shop.
2. Set a process plan.
1. In order to have 100 total in my shop by the end of July, I would need to make roughly 2.5 items a week. 
3. I need o make sure I have enough supplies to finish this project. 
4. I need to not watch YouTube beauty videos at night and instead get busy crafting. 

Seems simple right?  I should be able to do this!

Speaking of beauty videos...

I felt like I was doing my makeup the same way I had always done it and felt I needed a new mature look and started doing some research.  

Did you all know that there was such a thing as a Beauty Guru that posts things on You Tube causing impressional young women to go out and spend all of their fabric money on Makeup?

Well...  Incase you didn't know...  Here are some of my favorites!

And...

I have been having so much fun watching and learning thing from these ladies!

I even had to make a new makeup bag to throw all of my new goodies in!

Plus...  Who doesn't love Chevron?

Until next time!
