every day life, everyone can build a castle, finishing the year 2020, get ready for a new year, Goal setting for 2020, having a good end of the year, health and wellbeing, Life changes, never too old, stay focused for the rest of 2020

So we are coming towards another end of a year and I have goals to achieve as we draw the end of 2020 and it is important to stay focused for the rest of 2020.

Goals and life changes, rather than resolutions, can happen at any point of a year, not just at the beginning and you can always change your life around at any time. THERE ARE NO RULES!

Always have a target in mind and know that it is never too late to try new things in your life. Madonna made it into the charts with “Like A Virgin” when she was in her thirties and Ian Wright didn’t play professional football until he was, 29 and played at Crystal Palace, before he joined Arsenal.

The one thing I would like to do to help me get into fitness is do a boxercise class, as I loved the ones that Davina McCall did on her fitness DVD’s, which I totally recommend.

The other goals I have is to Write two books within 2 months and starting this year, now as we lead up to Christmas 2020.

Focus on what helps set your day up and gives you a purpose to get out of bed for.

NEVER STOP DREAMING OR BELIEVING! FOCUS ON THE TARGET, THE GOAL AND THE FINAL OUTCOME!

Living A More Productive List 2020!

Being happy, carries blog network, carries education network, carriesrealworld, create further happiness, establishing your goals to end 2020 to get ready for 2021, get ready for a new year, health and wellbeing, less but more, living a more happier life, living a more productive life, living for each day, my books, new things in 2021, taking a break, the parenting adventures

Now even though the beginning of this year was rocky, I did still accomplish many things, like more books and two EBooks, see my listings below:

https://www.amazon.com/s?i=digital-text&rh=p_27%3ACarrie+Challoner&s=relevancerank&text=Carrie+Challoner&ref=dp_byline_sr_ebooks_1

I created two online courses and another one is being developed. So I will let you know when this course will be available. See link to my education network below:

Carries Education Network

I am working on 3 books at the moment as I am re-writing my first book of The Parenting Adventures Pregnancy to the first 9 months. I will let you know when this is published, a comedy and a rewritten book called the Peabody Years.

So to go into 2021 and be more productive, I am going to draft a load more blogs to post, as there is so much I wish to share, and slow down a bit more.

20 Secrets to Living a Happier Life

Check out article called: 20 Secrets to live a happier life, via the link above.

You can still be productive and take it easy too, but just focusing on 2-3 things each day and week, is much better than doing a whole 25 things to do list. I was doing this and then would blow myself out, and I do take a break from it too, in parts of the year.

JUST BECAUSE YOU WANT TO BUILD A NEW LIFE, DOESN’T MEAN YOU SHOULDN’T TAKE A WELL EARNED BREAK. YOU CAN STILL BE PRODUCTIVE BY TAKING SOME TIME OUT TO DO OTHER THINGS!

As said in my previous posts, it isn’t about quantity but quality, and I really want to take my family to Disney World and have a well earned holiday, as it has been a while, go to a music festival, if they are on, and have loads of family time.

Being productive is achieving the things that make you feel good, energized and ready to continue on. If you find parts of your life is boring and needs a change, then make it.

Live your life as you wish to, as long as it isn’t trying to hurt another person, but that makes you and those around you happy. Whenever I have gone out and had a drink with friends, I do get buzz from them, as I love to see them enjoy themselves too, and as it is Christmas soon, I want the rest of this year to be about spending time with those that truly love me, and who I love back and next year to be, about going out more and doing more adventures.

I am super in love and that is making me really look forward to next year and what it will bring. I want to do Stand up again, like I did when working at Butlins, write more music like I used to and develop an online shop.

I am going to take my time next year, so no rushing, as I was once called Mrs Rush Rush Rush, but have a purposeful day and do what is important to help me and adds value to my life.

So lets get ready for 2021 and see what it brings. Remember to live it like you want to and don’t allow those that want to continue to be haters and unhappy to stop you.

Please check out my new video, showing more of what I like to write on this channel and please remember, if you wish to keep up to date with my posts on this site, to click the follow button below.

So there will be more to come and I want to share an Erin May Henry video talking about my much love subject, setting goals, as they map your life for more good things to come and helps you to grow.

2021, Being happy, creating a new start, establishing your goals to end 2020 to get ready for 2021, everyone can build a castle, Following your dreams, following your heart, Life changes, new beginning, new foundation, preparing for another year

Hello, hello, hello. So we are now in November and soon we will be in the famous month December.

A new year for me is a new beginning and want this time round to be a fresh start, as this year 2020, has been the hardest one I have had to face since being alive and I want it to have a happy ending and be ready for another new year ahead.

If you have seen my last two posts about setting myself new goals and establishing them, you will see that I have cut them down this year, and if you have followed me for a while on this site, I like to make Life changes rather than resolutions.

New Cheat Sheet 2026: Ten Things to Write down in a journal

My Weekly Cheat Sheet. Ten Things to write down in a journal.

Carries Blog Network's avatar by Carries Blog Network January 12, 2026

For the last 5 years I have really had to battle with my mental health and deal with people who haven’t been nice to me at all, and I have discovered who my real friends are and who my real family are.

This year I am not going to do a whole list of things, as it isn’t about quantity its about quality and what I truly want to achieve and add into my life.

I have already planned my books I am going to concentrate and write for next year to be published and I hope to expand my blog sites even more and focus sometime building up my Youtube channel again.

I have battled a lot again with my self confidence as it did get knocked quite a lot this year, but will do more exercises and journalling to help rebuild it.

For me it has always been a working progress. I need to give myself more credit and not feel like I have to answer for myself when I do.

I have met a new man in my life who loves me out of this world, and I can’t wait to start a new life with him.

I have had to build a new foundation for myself, but feel that good things will come my way, I just need to keep going, have time for myself too, but not allow anyone to dictate my life.

I like having people look out for me and take me under their wing, but not too the point where I need to ask permission to go to the toilet and it be wrong.

So I am going to keep going and add more blogs leading up to Christmas and another new year, and pray that this time round it is a brilliant start to my life and end of another chapter.
