I Don’t Usually Make Resolutions But Here’s What I Want From 2023

Did you make resolutions for 2023? Share in the comments.

I didn’t have a man walk over my threshold. I didn’t cook black eye peas or greens to celebrate the New Year, so some would say that I’m already on my way to a shitty 2023.

I was actually asleep when the ball dropped and was awakened to the start of 2023 by my daughter calling.

I’m used to being alone when the New Year rolls in and I don’t bother make resolutions because I always try to be purposeful when it comes to making plans for my life.

However, 2022 was an awful year for me from start to finish, so I felt it necessary to write down what I’d like to see happen for me in 2023 in the hopes that it will help it to manifest.

Make More Money/ Work Smarter Not Harder

Despite being an entrepreneur for most of my adult life along with working a “regular job”, I have always been living at the poverty level.

This means I have not enjoyed my life. All I do is work to pay bills and it’s a struggle. I also don’t have a personal life and I don’t vacation often.

How I will make more money in 2023

I started an OnlyFans account in November of 2022 where I have a small following that I hope to grow and keep entertained throughout 2023 with exclusive content.

It currently features sexy images, nothing x-rated, but ya never know what’s to come! I have ideas to release short stories and audio content that won’t be available anywhere else, so if you’re interested in more Dangerous Lee content, subscribe now!

The Dangerous Lee Mall is still open for business, so if you’re a woman who loves to wear clothing and accessories that will get you compliments and turn heads you should definitely shop there.

If you love to read, please pick up copies of my books and short stories through Amazon. My cut won’t be much but every penny adds up!

If you have content promoting yourself or your business that you’d like to feature here at Dangerous Lee Publishing, please consider submitting a sponsored post.

Wear More Color

One thing I’ve realized while taking photos and styling myself for my OnlyFans page is that I look great in bright colors. We’re always fed this idea that Black is slimming, and it may be but it’s also boring and safe.

Another truth is that Black and Brown people look great in color! The contrast with our skin tones is beautiful.

I’ve always had a habit of buying dark colored clothing and that will stop. I already got the ball rolling by buying a purple pair of winter gloves in December 2022.

It’s time to live out loud!

Move

I gotta get outta this town or at the very least this raggedy-ass apartment complex.

I’m also open to leaving the US or relocating to a different state. The question is; where should I go?

Where can a Black woman live happily in this world and change her life successfully?

That will be my job to figure out as I believe my current location has a lot to do with my unhappiness and lack of progress in life.

However, my first resolution of making more money will have to succeed to help make this happen.

Get Healthier

I call 2022 the year I got old. At 47 the effects of age and not living the healthiest lifestyle has caught up with me.

I had so many doctor appointments, saw so many specialists, had so many tests done, and blood drawn that my head is spinning. And it’s not over!

One thing I’ve learned is that I have high blood pressure which I am taking medication for and I am also overweight and taking medication to help aid in weight loss.

I am also making healthier food choices because a girl loves to snack. I struggle with being more physical but I have strategically places my exercise bike in the living room so the intent is there, just not the drive.

I will work on that and do more to become active.

Find a Good Man

This resolution is gonna be hard for me as a straight woman who rarely meets men that I am attracted to and I can also admit that I don’t really like men in general these days.

Sounds crazy, I know, but I think this is a major issue between the sexes. We don’t like each other on a basic level and that’s why there is so much abuse and discourse between us.

I’m hoping that being aware of this and the fact that my feelings about men don’t automatically make me mistreat them, though I am always cautious and aware of their BS.

Having said that, in early 2022 I allowed my loneliness and need for sexual attention to give time to a “man” who turned out to be a real creep.

After all, he did tell me that he was a bad guy. You gotta believe them when they tell you who they are.

Don’t worry, my loneliness and sexual urges are still in tact as I found out early just how sick he is and I think he realized he didn’t really have a chance with me, so nothing happened between us.

So, for me, finding a good man seems like an oxy moron statement to make but there has to be someone out there for me of the male species to connect with on a romantic level, and it’s time.

I’ve been single more years than I can count and my sex life is dry. I’m getting old, I wanna experience love again. I wanna find a person for me. I crave it. I need it.

I don’t know how it’s gonna happen or if it even will in 2023 but I’ll be more intentional about it instead of just creating fantasies in my mind.
