How to get ready for the New Year

Idk about youuu, but I'm feeling 20✌🏽

2021 is coming to an end, which means it's time to get ready for the New Year. Even though the past two years haven't been ideal, I believe that each year is an opportunity to make your dreams come true. Here are four things that I think everyone should do to get ready for 2022.

1. Write Down Your Goals

This is probably one of my favorite things to do every year. Writing down your goals is super effective, because it puts everything that you want into perspective. It's super fun to look back and see what you've accomplished over the course of the year.

2. Get Organized/Declutter

Over the next few days, take some time to get organized. Start cleaning out your room or closet and try to declutter your living spaces. Your room is often a reflection of your mind. Taking time to clean your room can help you feel refreshed and ready to take on the new year.

3. Donate Donate Donate!

When cleaning out your closet, it's the best time to donate all the clothes that you haven't worn in ages. Find your local charity or local thrift shop and start donating! It's the perfect opportunity to help someone in need.

4. Make a list of all the things you're grateful for

It's always important to take time to express gratitude. Challenge yourself to write down 5 things that happened in 2021 that you're thankful for, like meeting your BFF or making an A on your math final. Even though 2021 sometimes felt like an extended 2020, it's important to appreciate all of the good things that came out of this year.
