A Fresh Start: An Introduction

Hello, and welcome to my blog, A Fresh Start.

 Allow me to quickly introduce myself. My name is Kiersten and I have a pretty awesome life. I have an incredible husband who supports me, even with all of my crazy ideas. I have a very busy household with three cats and a dog, thanks in part to my inability to say no to my awesome husband. I recently completed my Psychology and Teaching degrees, and have been lucky enough to be hired as an Elementary Occasional Teacher right after school, which in my area, can be pretty hard to do. So from the outside, my life seems pretty good, right?

 Then why, at the ripe old age of 25, do I find myself feeling incredibly frustrated with the way that I have been living my life? The answer: Because I am wasting it!

 I have allowed myself to slip into a sad, boring lifestyle where all I do is think up incredible ways to spend my time. Instead of making those plans into a reality, I have been wasting my life away procrastinating like it’s my job and missing out on amazing opportunities to improve my life! This blog will be the place that I come to share my new goals, plans and eventually success stories as I work my way through the mess of a life that I have created, and hopefully find a happier, more exciting life at the other end.

I intend to find new ways to organize my life including being better prepared for each day and ways to keep my house running smoothly.

I have never taken the time to properly take care of my body, and rather than start a fad diet or a lose weight quick program, I am going to take the time to learn what my body truly needs and begin to implement a healthy lifestyle change that will make me a stronger, healthier version of myself.

Finally, I will look for new ways to achieve my dreams such as travelling, buying our first home, and becoming more successful in my career and marriage.

 I have never created a blog before, so please be patient with me as I try to get the hang of it. I would love to hear comments from other people about ways that they are working to improve their lives and I am looking forward to this much needed Fresh Start!
