Embracing a new month : October

Am I the only one struggling with the fact that in 2 months we are saying goodbye to 2024? While a part of me is excited that the year is coming to an end I can't help but also be a tiny little anxious about 2025 and what the new year has in store for us. As we start a new month what are some tools you can use to stay alert, energised and motivated. We know at this time of the year that fatigue can haunt each waking day. For those travelling and going home it's also time to plan for the big trip ahead of time and not only prepare your body, financial resources needed but also the mind.

Tips to End the Year Strong:

1. Reflect on Achievements: Take stock of your accomplishments and celebrate your successes. People tend to believe it is only the big milestones that are to be acknowledged, even the small things you did that kept you going are important and a part of the journey.

2. Review Goals: Assess your progress towards your yearly goals and adjust as needed. You can always start again and also continue. Not everything has to be new all the time.

3. Clear Out Clutter: Declutter your physical space and organize your belongings for a fresh start.

4. Finish Unfinished Tasks: Prioritize completing pending tasks to avoid carrying them over to the new year.

5. Express Gratitude: Show appreciation to those who have supported you throughout the year.

6. Relax and Recharge: Take time to rest and rejuvenate to enter the new year with energy and focus.

7. Reflect: Set aside moments for introspection, learning from the previous months.

By following these steps, you can wrap up the year on a positive note and set yourself up for a productive and fulfilling start to the upcoming year.
