35 Ideas for [19 Before 2019]
Hello Friends~
It’s that time of year again, 19 before 2019. I am pretty sure the original person who started this was Lisa Jacobs, highly suggest you follow her, but it’s everywhere anymore. It’s a great concept so I can see why it spread so fast, and I’ve done it the last few years.
I struggled with my list, so I wanted to show you the list I started with before I picked the ones I ended up with. I got these from Googling around other lists as well as general goal setting. A lot of them are basic, you have to feel in the rest!
- Buy Something
- Save $
- Lose X Weight
- Gain X Weight
- Go on a Vacation
- Go someone specific new landmark, home, etc
- Get a Tattoo
- Clear out clutter
- Clear out specific Rooms
- Set a routine
- Read X amount of books

Essentially,
Make, GO, Create, Do, Reach, Take! I hope this helps you get an idea for what you can put on your list. It can be daunting, and I know like many I don’t always want to fill it up with things that are the default, but give yourself some room to do that so you can check it off!
Want to review more of these list? I have done this goal exercise every year since 2019, you can find all the goal list here: 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022 | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 | 2026 Happy goal setting!
I struggled on my list. Last year I picked a few simple things that I knew would get done anyway, but this year I wanted to focus on more specific goals. I am still putting things in there I know I wanted to do, and would probably do either way.
- Create another Pin Design ($ is the biggest obstacle here)
- 100 Day Instagram Challenge
- Write something during NOV Challenge
- Try new clear sparkle laminate
- Try a new Clear Charm Vendor
- End of Year!
- Put Shelves in Bedroom closet
- Declutter Kitchen
- Declutter Bedroom
- Declutter Closets (I don’t even know what are in these)
- Take a paid class
- Pay off small cards and keep it off!
- Save $1000
- Get a Massage or Go in one of those tanks
- Scrapbook all those pictures you keep snapping!
- Take a creative writing course
- Buy all the Joanns stuff
- Add 10 Listings to Etsy Store before end of the year (been lazy lately)
- Set goals for 2019
I think that last one is a good easy one to add to everything.
Well, I hope this was helpful for building your list! If you are looking for an accountability buddy I’d be happy to volunteer. I am usually pretty good at getting at it, even if it’s slow sometimes.
Slow Progress is STILL Progress.
Have a great rest of the day~
