Five things for 2015

I can already tell 2015 is going to be a big, exciting year for us. So much has happened in the last few months leading up to it. I won’t get into it all now but know that a big fat update is coming your way. Until then here are five things we’re going to do to get the most out of 2015.

CREATE.
Creating is something that comes very natural for Jake and I. It’s our careers. We do it every day. But this year I want to also create for ourselves. Create things that inspire us, create things for fun. Create things just for us. We already have a running list of ideas so every Friday we are going to try our best to take a creative day where, as long as client projects permit, we will be working on projects all our own.

SIMPLIFY.
Chaos and clutter seem to escalate when you live in a small apartment. This year we’re simplifying. First up is some major decluttering. We’re getting rid of things we don’t need or don’t use enough to take up the valuable space in our apartment. Also I found this 30-Day Minimalism Challenge that I can’t wait to start. Anyone else in?

EXPLORE.
More day trips please. Sometimes I forget taking a trip doesn’t mean you have to hop on a plane or drive for 10 hours straight. There are a ton of places we can explore and still be home in time for dinner.

LEARN.
There is so much stuff I want to learn like how to make really good real ramen (recipe anyone?), or how to weave, and I’d love to get good at sewing. The list goes on and on. Skillshare will definitely be a part of our learning this year along with all those tutorials I’ve pinned.

ENJOY.
And lastly, we want to take the time to enjoy where we’re at and get out of the habit of just getting things done and moving on. We want to learn how to plan for the future but live in the moment.

What are your five things you want out of 2015?
