Declutter Your Home and Mind For the New Year

How do you declutter your home and your mind for the new year?  Do you have any new goals? We all say let’s start fresh, new beginnings and a better year. For sure we need a better year. Covid-19 put a stop to everyone’s lives for some time! It is important to set goals for everything in life to keep you focused and on track. Set new ones and re-adjust your current goals for the upcoming year.

Declutter

Here are some ideas to help you get organized and goal orientated for the new year.  To start, I like to declutter my home.  I put my Christmas decorations away and reorganize my home, pre holiday decor.  I then go into each closet in my home and collect anything that has not been used in 6-12 months.  It could also be something like a sweater that is being replaced by a new one.  I collect everything from toys, clothes, shoes, sheets, etc. and schedule a pick up from my local charity donation center.  By doing so, I am helping those in need and making room for new things I may purchase this year! I top it off with a new candle to give a nice new scent. Perfect; now my home is clean! HERE you can find my cleaning schedule.

By decluttering my home, I am also decluttering my mind. A clean space and no clutter keeps my mind relaxed and ready for anything!

Write Down Your Goals

Next I write down all my goals for the coming year.  Now that the holidays are over I start to eat healthier.  Yes,  I know Valentine’s Day is around the corner.  All the stores have all the candy out now. Unbelievable right! Eating healthy keeps me feeling energized and happy.

Stay Organized

Re-adjust your current goals and be more realistic about them.  Break down your goals step by step, to reach the bigger goal.

What are your goals?

• Write your goals in a journal
• Start a bullet journal or new planner to keep organized
• Focus on 3 goals and break them down
• What do you want this year?
• What changes would you like to make?

I hope these steps help you declutter your home and mind for the new year! STAY POSITIVE AND FOCUSED THIS NEW YEAR!

Have a Safe and Happy New Year!
