I’m going to break down the 5 most important things you should be doing on a monthly basis. Sometimes the basic necessities are forgotten and a lot of times it leads us to feel unmotivated, sad, lazy, and physically ill.
What is it that you want to take with you into this new month? How do you want to feel? Can you feel it? Try to take a few minutes to really get clear and focus on those feelings of being productive, motivated, happy, excited, and full of energy. Stay with those feelings for a bit.
Grab a monthly planner and create your plan. This is one of the things you should be doing each month. Fill things out in a way that will work for you. Add all the things you want to get done and make sure you are being reasonable about your workload and what you plan to accomplish.
Schedule in your time for self-care. Do something for yourself, go out, meet with a friend, pamper yourself, or do anything else that fuels your soul. Mark it down on your calendar and make this just as important as a meeting or kid’s activity. Each and every month this is something you need to do, make yourself a priority!
Clear the Clutter
If there is a place in your life that you see daily clear it out. This could be your closet, phone, purse, living room. Think of anywhere in the house that bothers you with clutter. Grab some bins and start organizing. I also love adding clear bins for my pantry and fridge. This helps me and the kids keep the fridge clean and organized.
Our physical health is the main pillar to anything else. Move your body. Take care of yourself. You can go for a walk, take your kids to the park or do a free youtube workout. Whatever it is, make moving your body once a day a priority, even if it’s only for 20-30 minutes.
