How I’m preparing for 2025!

✅ vision board

i've already made my digital vision board but tonight im gonna print out all the pics & sit down to make my physical vision board (first time i've made one!)

the vibe is nighttime, candles lit, hot chocolate, photos messily put on the floor, fav music (ariana grande) & living my best life

✅ writing a letter to your 2025 self

im also gonna do this tonight along with my vision board💋

heres some things you can write about:

date

current obsessions- songs/artists, movie/show, hobbies, books, color, food, season, aesthetic

what you’re proud of

some dreams/goals for 2025

challenges you’re facing currently

2025 wishlist

encouraging pep talk

a piece of advice

how do you feel about yourself currently

what you’re grateful for

✅ using the 12-week framework & plan the 1st quarter

this year, i decided to use the 12 week frame work (its a book, you can read about it!). so you split the year into 4 quarters (or 12 weeks) and i've started to plan each week so each week i'm doing something to achieve my goals (using notion)

by the end of the 12 weeks if it turns out to work very effectively i will make a post on it & how i used notion to help!

✅ finished all the projects & books i was currently on.

I’m actually very happy I did. There’s only gonna be fresh starts & no old energies this new year!! Eeekkk!!

13/12/23 and 14/12/23

These past few days have been a bit better. I got surprised with a mini Christmas tree which has made me super happy, I finished a physical book, which I haven’t done for a while, I worked on the last few new year things in my Hobonichi, and did some ‘common place’ work, I’ve also started a self governed experiment into finding out if I’m diabetic. I know I won’t be sleeping well but I still hope I can rest easy tonight.

how to prepare for the new year ̊ ˖ ॱ ♡

reflect about the past year. here are some ideas:

what did i learned?

which were my favourite experiences?

what went wrong and how i faced it?

what do i wish i spent more time doing? and less time doing?

describe your ideal self for that year. remember to write about:

your emotional intelligence

your personality

your academic/ job life

your social life

your relationship with yourself

your projects

your hobbies

write all your goals and their action plan. use the description as a guide of what goals you want to achieve.

create a bucket list of all the things you want to do this year, like creating an online shop, doing an artistic project, travelling somewhere, etc.

create your vision board based on your goals and your bucket list. here you have how to create an effective vision board:

decide what format do you want. would you prefer to have it as you phone wallpaper or as your computer’s? or would you like to place it in your wall?

think about what would you like to include in your vision board.

create a pinterest board and search for photos which represent all what you want to include. it’s better if the photos are in first person.

open canva and search the template you would like to use.

add the photos and organise them in a cute way!! you can add quotes and affirmations.

when you are finished, save it as a jpg if you want to use as your wallpaper, and as a pdf if you want to print it.

here’s mine so you can get some inspo!!

write new year affirmations. remember to write the in first person and present tense. here are some ideas:

how do you want to feel?

what would you like to happen?

that’s all, hope you have a great 2023!! 💋

Today was super busy and exhausting, but I’m also pretty proud of myself. Got my refurbished Kindle, had a little chocolate treat, got my new books (don’t think I can wait until next Spooky Season to read the Stephen King ones), putting my November photos in my album, starting my 2024 mood board in my Hobonichi, a slightly too short bath, more mood board work, and finishing up my last few pages of 2024 planning in my other book. Even just typing that has made me tired, can’t wait to curl up in bed with my Kindle.

28/12/22 • 100 days of productivity - 41/100

today i did an hour of history and sociology revision for my mock exams. i also bought a new fluffy coat which i lovee as a little late christmas gift to myself. i honestly cannot wait for the new year because although you can ‘change’ yourself at any point in time, a new year is just oddly exciting to me? just the idea of starting afresh is just motivating for me. i’m planning on doing my bullet journal spreads for 2023 as well as preparing for the new year but deep cleaning my house (lowkey dreading this)

Literally yesterday I decided to apply to at least 2 job applications while I was on this break from work... but of course my traditions and spirituality took front row and center and now I'm hell bent on cleaning before the New year... I should be done by Thursday... I'm ok with the my decision. And tbh... I'm ok with this decision..

Idk why I thought that cleaning off my dresser was going to be the biggest part of cleaning my room before the new year. When in reality it’s going to be my closets 🙃
