Hello, My September Goals!
It's been awhile since I published an article here. I can't remember when I last posted here. Well, I am trying to fix myself. My inner peace and mind decided to come back here again today. Actually, I attempted to write an article here yesterday, but I failed because I wasn't sure if I was writing about the correct topic.
So I decided to publish this first and continue the previous topic that I started tomorrow or maybe in the next few days since it's September 1, 2022 now. We've gotten into the habit of writing a blog post about setting goals or making plans at the beginning of each month. Honestly, I really need to write one because I forgot to focus on my goals. I had a lot of absences last month, but I don't think I wasted my time because I got a lot of benefits from those days.
So, as I previously stated, I will focus my efforts this month on grinding and learning a variety of new skills that I discovered during my absence. It's just like:
Learning How to cook
One of the Pinoys' most favorite foods is adobo. You know what? I really hate kitchen work, but when I was at my sister's place, I didn't realize that I was also going in and out of their kitchen. Because I am not good at memorizing, I always watch my sister cook and list the ingredients and steps to how to cook them one by one. Then when I go home here at our grandparents' house, I apply the things that I learned from her. such as:
Peeling some ingredients
One of the reasons why I was not interested in cooking before is that I was too lazy to peel some ingredients. One of my least favorite ingredients is onion because it makes my eyes cry like I'm a broken-hearted girl, but after peeling them here, I'm no longer a cry baby and I've grown accustomed to their presence while peeling and chopping them on the cutting board.
Holding a knife
I am scared of holding knives because once I held a knife, I remembered how I used it to cut my waist when I was depressed, but I always calm myself when I hold them because I also wanted to overcome this problem of mine while holding them.
Anyway, I don't know how, but peeling and chopping some vegetables, meat, and other ingredients when I am in the kitchen are not new to me anymore. I am a first-time cook, but chopping and peeling are just a basic thing to do for me because of watching some cooking videos before. Of course, I am aware of those things in cooking, but I have just been silent for how many years to my family that I don't know how to do it because I am just too lazy to do it.
Why would I like to focus on learning how to cook?
Like I said, I really hate kitchen work, right? But when I turned 22 years old, I don't know, I just wanted to do the things that I hate doing.
And you know what? I have some thoughts that are coming inside of my mind too. I also want to learn how to cook because I want to cook my partner's favorite dishes in the future. This is so weird because I started to dream some romantic things that I said and promised to myself when I was young that I didn't like to do. Marriage is not really for me, but now I dream of becoming a good wife to my husband in the future. Lol
Learning digital arts using Ibispaint and Sketchbook
It was one of my dreams before to learn how to use ibispaint and sketchbook apps. I never tried using or even investing some time in learning how to draw on these applications, but now there is some progress, little by little, step by step, on how to draw on these amazing applications. Well, I started to learn how to draw using the brushes by the hair until I discovered how to draw and color the body using the blending brush. However, I'm still learning how to use the layers. But I hope that someday I will be able to draw something using my own imagination without copying the original image.
Anyways, these two are just examples of the basic goals that I like to focus on during this month of September. Meanwhile, if we talk about my goals here,
Let me begin as I always did before when I lost my way of focusing myself here:
Read at least 20 articles in one day.
I like to read 10 articles in the morning and 10 articles in the afternoon while resting during the night or saving some drafts if I have more time or a topic to write about.
At least 20 articles should be published.
I am not hoping that I will be able to publish at least 30 articles in this month of September because I know that I will have a lot of absences again when my depression attacks. Lol
I'll travel if I have some time.
I just hope that I can be able to travel or go out of the house this month and have some fun like normal people do every day so that I can have something to share or write about too. But I am scared of going out alone since kidnapping in our country is trendy these days.
Conclusion...
I don't know if I will be able to do these things well this month, but I just hope that I can have something to share, like achievements, by the end of this month.
So this is all for today. I would like to congratulate you all on the things that you achieved last month here on read.cash! I hope that you will continue your journey here and never stop. Don't be like me. Lol
Thanks for reading!

Your September resolution is just on point. Reading 20 articles in a day is good and can assist in enhancing our information plus I hate cooking but sometimes I make fake scenarios like I will learn how to cook one just for my future husband .lol 😂
