How to Start 2024 with Intentions for Success
Are you coming into 2024 with loads of new resolutions and goals? If so, take some time to reassess your life in these different areas!
Obligations—Ever wish you had more time for what was genuinely important to you?
Now’s the time to make that change. And the first step is by looking at all the things you’ve taken on that no longer feel important. Consider each committee, sponsorship, app, extended family and friend obligations that you no longer feel good about. Especially if they feel like a burden, it’s time to unload them. That may feel challenging. After all, no one wants to let others down. But this is your life, and it’s time to choose you instead of others’ wants! Live the life YOU dream about for your family. Anything that doesn’t move you closer to that, is a NO.
Finances—If you wish you had more money but can’t or don’t want to work more to get it, take a careful look at your finances. Quite often, little wants turn into needs. Scan through last year’s bank statements and make a note of any recurring payments. You may wince when you see how much you’ve spent on unnecessary things throughout the year. Having occasional treats for you and your family is okay. But if “shopping therapy” has become a burden, now’s the time to fix it. Make a list of all the ways you could cut back without feeling deprived.
For example, could you eat out two nights a week instead of four? Or, do you spend time cooking when you'd rather spend time doing something else more worthwhile? Is it essential that you shop for clothes every month? How much could you save if you brought snacks to while running errands or to kids sporting events instead of getting take-out? Do you find it fun to have four bazillion TV channels? These are just a few ways you can trim expenses, so you can save for things that matter to you instead.
Dreams and Goals—Many people say that they don’t have enough time or enough money as the reason why they stay in dead-end jobs, don’t pursue their passions, or make real changes in their lives.
If that was you and you’ve taken my advice and reevaluated your obligations and finances, those excuses should no longer be holding you back.
So, what do you want really?
To start a new career? Turn your side-hustle or hobby into a business? Eat homemade, whole foods that support your health and wellness? Starting better supplements? By choosing to make the changes above in your life, you’ve now opened up a whole new world for yourself. Grab it, and don’t look back!
