The year is almost over, but the best is yet to come! Bring peace through the holiday week and into the New Year!

🔶 Clear the Clutter 🔶
Every year, on December 31st, I get really fired up and do a clean sweep of the entire house – the fridge, under the kitchen sink, nothing is safe! I encourage you to try your own clean sweep for the new year. Even if you just pick one area to tackle, it will make your life so much more efficient in the long run. Also, It feels so good to wake up on the 1st of the year with clean surfaces and tidy drawers.

🔶 Pick a Theme 🔶
Try picking a theme or a word to focus your energy on for the new year that resonates with your personal and specific goals, values, and priorities. Visualize what you want to create, and home in on how you want to feel. Popular options include: simplicity, abundance, wellness, creativity, connection, and ease. This word or theme can serve as a guide as you make decisions in the new year. When faced with a decision you can ask yourself, “Does this contribute to my feeling of (your word or theme here)?”

🔶 Set Some Specific Goals
While vulnerable and scary, when I write down and share my big goals, I feel much more committed to making them happen. If goal setting for an entire year feels daunting, try setting smaller goals for the first quarter of the year. Three months is a good chunk of time to set some brave goals, and to make a lot of progress towards achieving them. Ask yourself what you want to be different in your life by the end of 2022. What do you want to do or accomplish? How do you want to feel? What do you want to contribute? What specific and measurable things will you need to do to get there?

🔶 Plan and Schedule 🔶
If you’re committed to making your dreams and goals become a reality, it is imperative that you break down each big goal into tiny micro steps, and schedule each step in your actual calendar. You can make sure that your calendar supports your priorities and goals by scheduling not only professional commitments, but also social plans, time off, self care, spiritual practices, and exercise. Sometimes I block out an hour on my calendar that literally says “read and relax.” When it comes to goals and habits, it’s also helpful to commit to a minimum baseline you will commit to – even on your hardest day.
