If you don’t know where you’re going, any road will take you there
Nature. Life. The seasons. Don’t you just love them? Nature naturally brings change. We see them in the leaves. Animals hibernate. The weather brings warmth, cold, sunshine or rain. As we start Fall, HGTV’s Joanna Gaines shared checklist to prepare for this season.
Like many of us, I just want to get to the good stuff. Joanna recommends for us to:
- Purge
- Organize
- Create Mental Shift
- Visually Reset
Of all the steps I hate purging. It’s annoying. It involves lots of work to get rid of my ‘good’ stuff! But purging is necessary. Because we hate doing it, we find it progressive to rent storage units to keep our stuff. Oh, what can I say?
The Good Stuff
On the other hand, my favorite is to get to the good stuff and start decorating! Just love that! But what’s more essential are the ways she recommends that we conduct what she refers to as a mental shift. For those who need a change…. my preference from her list are:
- Start a Journal
- Keep a calendar
- Plan a Gathering
- Set weekly or monthly intentions
Setting Goals
It’s important to set Goals. Like I have always said, if you don’t know where you’re going, any road will take you there. So consider where you are now. Are you where you wanted to be at the start of the year? If not, do a mental review and reset. Yes, you may be disappointed but don’t remain in that state too long. Push forward. Start working on your goals again. Let nothing stop you. Before you know it, you will be steps closer to your dreams.
As you reflect on Joanna’s list, what step do you enjoy the most? Do share. We would love to hear!
Cheers!
