Things To Do At The Start Of A New Year

Hello! Hope you’re okay! Today’s blog post is about things to do at the start of a new year! The start of a new year is a perfect time to declutter your life and get more organised! You could even do these things at the start of every month to avoid getting overwhelmed by everything! I hope you like this post and comment if you will be doing any of these things!

Declutter Your Phone/Laptop

This is definitely something you could do at the start of every month because it helps you stay organised and the start of a new year is the perfect time to get into this routine! Things to do to declutter your phone are deleting useless notes in your notes app (I have a lot of random notes in my notes app that I often forget to delete), deleting old/duplicate photos, sorting out emails, etc.

Fill Out a New Calendar/Diary

I find it really fun to fill out a new calendar and diary at the start of a new year! It helps you get excited for special events coming up and plan more events! If you’re a blogger or content creator, you could try to plan out some of this year’s posts in a diary or calendar to get prepared!

Reflect On The Previous Year

I always like to reflect on the previous year at the start of a new year because it makes me feel grateful for all the good moments and the bad moments motivate me to have a better year this year! You could make a scrapbook of photos from last year or you could just write a yearly summary in a journal or notebook!

Make Goals/New Year’s Resolutions

Once you’ve reflected on the previous year, you can make some New Year’s resolutions and goals for the year! Make sure your goals and new year’s resolutions are realistic so you can stick to them for the whole year! This year, I’ve put less pressure on myself to have big new year’s resolutions but I have some small new year’s resolutions that I hope to achieve!

Do Some Shopping

The start of a new year is a great time to go shopping to get some essentials (like skincare products, toiletries, food) but also to treat yourself! You could get some new clothes, books, makeup, etc. to use throughout the year. Plus, there are lots of good New Year’s sales in shops at the moment so you can save money as well!
