• Dividing short-term & long-term goals into sections: social, health, professional, financial, and spiritual/mental health.
• Why reflecting on highs and lows is crucial for progress.
• Clearing mental and digital clutter to start the year fresh.
• Breaking bad habits and creating intentional work-life balance.
• Fun ways to stay inspired, including my nostalgic book club plan for the new year!
