Commanding the new year

The start of a new year! A time for reflection, goal-setting, and intention-setting. Here are some ideas to help you command the new year:

Reflect on the past year

• Take time to reflect on the past year. What did you accomplish? What did you learn? What challenges did you face?
• Identify what worked well and what didn't. Celebrate your successes and acknowledge areas for improvement.

Set intentions, not resolutions

• Instead of making resolutions, set intentions for the new year. What do you want to achieve? What kind of person do you want to become?
• Make sure your intentions are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART).

Create a vision board

• Cut out images and words that represent your intentions and desires. Create a visual representation of your goals and aspirations.
• Place your vision board in a spot where you'll see it every day, such as your bedroom or office.

Set a theme for the year

• Choose a theme for the year, such as "growth," "creativity," or "self-care." This will help guide your decisions and actions throughout the year.

Create a plan of action

• Break down your intentions into smaller, actionable steps. Create a plan for achieving your goals.
• Identify the resources you need to achieve your goals, such as books, courses, or support systems.

Practice self-care

• Take care of your physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Make time for activities that nourish your body and soul.
• Prioritize rest and relaxation. A well-rested and relaxed you is more likely to achieve your goals.

Embrace the unknown

• The new year is full of unknowns. Embrace the uncertainty and be open to new experiences and opportunities.
• Remember that life is full of twists and turns. Stay flexible and adaptable.

Command the new year with affirmations

• Repeat affirmations to yourself daily, such as "I am capable and confident," "I am worthy of success and happiness," or "I am strong and resilient."
• Write down your affirmations and post them in places where you'll see them often.

Celebrate your successes

• Celebrate your successes, no matter how small they may seem. Acknowledge your hard work and progress.
• Treat yourself to something special, such as a massage, a favorite meal, or a fun activity.

By commanding the new year, you'll set yourself up for success and create a foundation for a fulfilling and meaningful year ahead.
