2022: The year of new beginnings & the end.
Firstly, I am so proud of you for making it towards the end of this year. It has been a tough ride for some and for others it’s been amazing. I hope you continue to stay strong, continue to believe you are deserving of great things and that the future ahead is filled with a series of success that is destined for you only. With the new year finally on the horizon it’s time for us to mentally and physically prepare ourselves for what’s next to come. The future you desire can only be created if you are willing to do what is required to get it.
The power of visualization
The process of visualization is one of the most effective ways of transforming your dreams into reality. It could be as simply writing your goals down every morning and spending a few hours a day imaging them or creating a board filled with pictures of your goals that serve as motivation throughout your daily routine. Whatever technique you choose, visualization is one of the best.
A vision board is simply a collage of images, words or anything in general that aligns or represents your goals and intentions. Before the process of creating a vision board, ask yourself.
What are your goals? Is that a short or long termed goal? What words describe how you would like to feel for the upcoming year? Where do you see yourself in one year? Where would you like to be in one year?
These are questions you need to ask yourself beforehand. You have to have a clear image of what you are trying to achieve as your vision board is a physical representation of your desires.
If your goal is get a new car or your dream car, find the exact image of the car that you want. You want to move half way across the world? find images of the specific geographical location, images of apartments or houses in that location, images of the city and things you can picture yourself doing once you move to that destination. The key to visualization is to be as specific as you can with the details as you are creating a visual board of your dreams & goals. Make sure to include some affirmations as well. Your vision board does not have to physically. You can create it digital by using Pinterest and creating a board with pins that align with your goals. You can create a powerpoint, or you can create a collage and save it as your home screen for a device you use frequently. The board should be visible to your eye and serve as motivation throughout the year as you attempt to achieve everything you listed.
As someone who suffers from ADHD I know firsthand how hard it is to create a daily routine and follow along with it. Often times we end up forgetting about the routine, and sometimes we end up feeling overwhelmed about the routine. However it is nothing to be afraid of but it is something that requires a lot of patience and consistency. The more consistent you are in being organized the easier completing daily tasks and keeping track of your days will get.
A planner is a good investment when creating a daily routine as it helps you keep track of your morning + afternoon activities. It’s a great practice to use planners and journals as they help you to stay organized so that you never forget an important task or activity.
Whether it be physically or digitally, creating or using a planner helps with getting the task done more quickly and efficiently. There are a lot of apps, i.e. I use this app called smile todo. It is a very cute app that allows me to track my daily routine of:
Taking a shower + doing my dental & skincare.
Gratitude journaling and listening to podcasts.
These are just a few things that I have on my daily routine and the smile todo app helps me keep track of. However I think switching to a physically planner if you have the time is to way better. I will be switching over this year & I can’t wait <3
As I’ve mentioned in my previous post these are the steps you follow in creating a scripting journal. Just like last year I will be following these same steps and creating another scripting journal. Everything that is needed to be known about creating a scripting journal is linked above.
As it pertains to journaling for my morning routine. I like to keep a journal of my dreams as well as journaling a few things I am grateful for each morning. Keeping a dream journal is a great way of figuring out your dreams as a lot of our messages from the universe and ancestors comes to us through that medium of the dream world.
Instead of using a physical journal I like to use the Emmo app to keep track of my dreams.
I find it way easier to use an app as sometimes I am not energized enough to search for my journal immediately after getting up. Instead, I wait 5-10 and then reach for my phone where I make note of my dreams if I can vividly remember it. This app is sooooo cute it allows you to make little drawing and icons <3 I love it a lot.
Writing letters to future you.
The idea of writing letters from the past to future you is also a manifestation technique. There are two ways of doing it that I like to follow. The first method would be:
Writing a futuristic letter to your future self. In that letter you would write as if you’ve already achieved everything and how grateful you are to the universe for achieving these goals. i.e. Your 2022 goal was get into a certain university, therefore you’ll compose the letter like this.
I am so happy and grateful to be living in [city where that university is located] and attending the [university of your choice] Every morning as I awake in the luxury of my own apartment from [where the apartment you want to live is located] I am filled with immediate gratitude towards you for allowing this dream to come true. My apartment is just a few minutes away from school, so each morning I wake up an hour before and get ready for school. As I drive in my car my heart swell with happiness at the fact that I am here and this is my life. I am a student of [university of your choice] I am deserving of this lifetime. I am so happy and blessed.
The other letter: A letter for you when you need it
The other letter would be a letter that you open whenever you are in a certain mood. For example:
A letter to open when sad.
A letter to open when feeling lost.
A letter to bring you happiness.
A letter to open when upset.
A letter to open when you need love.
A letter to open when you feel tired.
These are all letters written from yourself to future you. Letters that you can open whenever you are in any sort of mood and need a word of encouragement or a source of love. If you can get someone as in a close friend to write it for you and you guys exchange them it would be great but if not you can write them for yourself. There’s no better feeling that being there for yourself.
I hope this post was resourceful to plan ahead for the upcoming year. It’s only November but the quicker you can get everything ready for December so that you’ll have them to plan for January the better. Wishing everyone love and peace <3
