So that’s it. You are the one that ___________ how your ___________ is gonna go. Noone else and ___________else can ___________ your life ___________you ___________ them – so, make this ___________a good one – and good ___________!

A New Year signifies change. It signifies improvement. You won’t make up a completely different person with the change of a calendar. But you can do something different to change your life. You can make your life faster and stronger and creative and fun and happier and sexier and loving. You can make it better.  It’s all up to you. So, make your goals aloud and clear. Tell everyone you know so that they know you are serious. Tell your mom, your dad, your brother, your dog, your best friends – tell everyone, because no doubt they ‘re gonna need some help with their goals too.

First things first. get organised. How are you supposed to make life style changes in such a messy room? Make your bed, wipe down everything and get rid of those clothes you know you don’t wear anymore. Ah! Much better.

You wanna constantly remind yourself of your goals – so  make it obvious. I like vision boards because they are so easy. Just bring up pictures that inspire you, find something to put them on – I am using a piece of cardboard here- and tape them or stick them or glue them – it doesn’t matter. It’s totally сustomizable. Then put it somewhere where you’ll be able to see it all the time every day – on your walls – a good place, because your walls aren’t gonna move – not to mention that looks super cute.

Get a calendar — like a real calendar and use different colours to meet different goals of yours. Everytime you complete one of those goals, mark it off with that colour in your calendar. Keeping your calendar colourful you will be able to show how much you’ve done and how far you’ve gone. You don’t want a sad and blank calendar do you? I don’t think so.

Still need some motivation? Try this. Get a slab of wood. Any slab of wood. You can get them at any hardwood store and cut it for any size for like 5 bucks. Then pick up any paint of your choice… and then obviously paint your board. Find some cute clips, cute paper and I guess cute index cards. Cut up the index cards  and the paper to the size that fits your board and glue them together and wear up…

Now… I’m sure you’ve all heard of memory jar but what I suggest is a memory box. This way you are able to put actual objects into the box from trips or vacations and open it up at the end of the year to you all the collected. You can still put strips of paper with your memories on them but I think objects are more fun.

So that’s it. You are the one that determines how your life is gonna go. Noone else and nothing else can affect your life unless you let them – so, make this year a good one – and good luck!
