It’s hard to believe today is the last day of 2024! I’m definitely one of those people that enjoys new years and finds some magic in making new goals and resolutions. To me, it’s a nice way to reflect and take some time to be intentional with a new year to come. I’ve made a small list of a few simple things you can do to prepare for a new year.

Wishing you all a magical 2025! ✨

• Create a vision board for the new year. I love doing this at the start of every year. As a visual person, I enjoy having something to look at and be reminded of goals and things I’m looking forward to in the year. The last two years, I’ve attached a collection of photos as a “vision board” on my journal and I love having this to see everyday!
• Make a list of goals. For the last few years, I’ve made a small list of things I’d like to attract and attempt each year. It’s easy at the start of a year to get carried away with writing so many things to try and do in one year. I’d recommend reflecting on a few things you’d like to see happen within the year so there’s not added pressure.
• Organize or declutter a space. After the holidays, it’s a great time to go through some things while putting away holiday decor. Going into the new year with a refreshed home is a great way to start a year!
• If goals aren’t your thing, make a bucket list for the year or a list of fun things you want to remember to do this year.
• Start a new journal or planner. This is a great way to have a place to put your thoughts and plans throughout the year.
• Reflect on this year. Sometimes it’s easy to feel like you didn’t do or accomplish much in a year when time seems to move so fast. Taking some time to reflect on the small wins and memories is a great way to enter a new year with gratitude.

I created a 2025 dream and goal planning page, similar to last year’s that I’ll personally be using and wanted to share for anyone else interested. I typically write anything that comes to mind that I hope to achieve or strive for in the new year, even if it feels a little ambiguous at first! That’s what dreaming and goal planning is all about :)
