Since this past month has been a hard time for me with trying to juggle multiple different things,I decided to do a reset! In the beginning of November I had started to get my life together. I had realized that I needed a reset and to start juggling my life better.
First Step – Deep Clean
The first thing I did was deep clean my room. I do most of my work in my room and having a messy place to do work just makes you less motivated to get it done. I had done my laundry, vacuumed my floors, and cleaned my shower and sinks. This was a great first step to get me in a better mindset. After I looked around and saw my room look brand new it automatically made me feel better.
Step 2 – Get Organized
The second thing I did was get organized. This is something really hard for me to stay consistent with. Being organized in every aspect is particularly hard for me and I don’t really know why. So I started with organizing my desk. I had bought a few things from 5 Below like folders and organizers for my desk. This was good for me because I was able to organize things like important paper documents, dry erase board markers, hair bands, and whatever other random stuff was on my desk. Then I went over to my dry erase board and started to set up for the month November. I had written everything down that I had planned on it. I wrote the time and color coordinated everything. Everyday I look at the calendar and cross out the days and add new things. This helps me really stay on track and remember everything I have to do.
Step 3 – Set Goals
The last thing I did was set goals for myself. I have written my goals on a piece of paper and hung it up in my bathroom where I go everyday. This helps to motivate me and remind me of my goals when I am feeling lazy to get things done. Writing down your goals in a place where you will see them every day is really such a reminder and makes you subconsciously motivated to accomplish each of those goals everyday!
Since I had started this reset I have been pretty good at being consistent with it. I am more organized, juggle my time better, and feel more motivated to get things done. This reset has really helped change my mind set and I think it could help anyone else who feels that they just need to get their life back together again.
