As the clock strikes midnight on New Year's Eve, I find myself enveloped in a sense of renewal and possibility. Each year, I approach the New Year with a careful planning process that allows me to reflect on the past and set my intentions for the months ahead. First, I dedicate a quiet evening to review the previous year’s achievements and lessons learned, jotting down my thoughts in a well-worn journal.

Following this reflection, I create a vision board, a colourful collage of images and words that represent my goals and aspirations. This visual reminder serves as both inspiration and motivation throughout the year. Next, I break down these goals into smaller, achievable steps, ensuring I have a clear path to follow.

Finally, I schedule regular check-ins, allowing myself the flexibility to adapt and reassess my goals as the year unfolds. With a steaming cup of tea in hand and a sense of purpose guiding my way, I eagerly embrace the fresh start that each January brings.
