First of all HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! I hope that all of us will have a happy and healthy 2024!

Best purchases to start the New Year Right!

Is everybody also stressing out about all of these New Year’s resolutions? I don’t have many this year because it gets overwhelming. Two of those resolutions are in this post. These are 2 of my best purchases to start my New Year Right. 

Getting Fit

Getting fit or losing weight. Who doesn’t have this one on their list? We all know how crowded the gyms get in January. There are a lot of us who want to work on our summer bodies or simply get healthier. I want to work on both. I turned 46 in November and my body is reminding me of my age every morning. The struggle of getting older but still feeling like you are 28 in your mind is real. But anyway, here I go again with all this talking.

Treadmill

I wanted to talk about something that I bought so I can still be active during this cold and rainy weather. I only go outside to go to work and that’s it! I am not an autumn/ winter person but sitting on the couch all day isn’t healthy either. I bought a treadmill and I love it! I bought the pink version. All my gym stuff is pink. I don’t know who I am either because when I was young I hated the color pink but yet here we are! What I love about it is, is that I get my steps in while I am being entertained by my TV. It’s a win-win!

Notion

I talked about this in last week’s post. I started using Notion a few times but I just couldn’t get the hang of it to make it look as organized and beautiful as the other people I saw online. I knew how it would be beneficial but I didn’t have the patience to learn. I only have the patience to watch hair tutorials so I can do my hair myself plus I enjoy doing that. So one day I was scrolling through Instagram and saw that Grace Beverly had made her Productivity Method digital. She did it by using Notion. I was so happy! My mind said: ” You have to buy this now!” Yep, I am an influencer’s dream client! And now I have it. They explain everything so well and everything has a mini tutorial. 

Examples 

Examples of things that you can plan in your digital planner.

• Goals: you can write your yearly, monthly, and daily goals. 
• Braindumps: There is a section for Braindumps. I sometimes think of random things  (unfortunately even in the middle of the night). These thoughts are being written on my phone, piece of paper, or wherever. I never know where to look for them afterwards. Now I just go to my digital planner and dump my thoughts there. 
• Vision Board: I love the Vision Board option because I can get my images from everywhere. Especially Pinterest and put them on my vision board. You can also add quotes. 

As you can see I am quite happy with this purchase because I had to stop myself from continuing about it. It made my life easier because my mind is always busy and now I get to put everything there and let the thoughts go. 

Best purchases of December

These two things were my best purchases of December because they made it possible for me to start my year right. I want to get fit/healthy again and plan things better in 2024. I bought more things but this post is so long already. I will do another best purchases post at the end of January. 

What are your Goals?

What are your goals this year? Or are you letting things go the way they are supposed to go? Either way is fine of course because keeping up with the goals we plan in January can be difficult. Whatever you have decide to do, I hope you have a beautiful year. 

Talk to you next week. Feel free to share and like this post 🫶🏾
