Ideas for a more fun 2024

By now you’re either diligently working on your 2024 goals, or, you’ve given up on them. And I say this because we’ve all heard of the studies which say that many people quit their New Year resolutions by the end of January…

Whichever “camp” you’re in, I wanted to share a few fun ideas for your 2024, that you won’t want to give up on, I hope. Without much further ado…

Refresh your underwear drawer. You should do it every year for hygiene purposes, but also, because new underthings make us happy! That is… as long as you choose the right ones… Here are some tips.
While we’re at it, does your sock drawer need a refresh too? If you have missing socks, socks that have holes in them, or loose elastic, it’s time to let them go. You’ll feel better, I promise! And you may be wondering how this is fun? Well, here are some ideas for making them so.
Take it a step further and organize the rest. You know you need to… Just tackle it slowly so you don’t get overwhelmed and give up.
Try a new thing. I still fondly remember the first time we zip-lined. I was terrified before getting on but I will never forget the pure joy I felt “flying” above the prettiest landscape, even if it was at 55 mph. If you’re curious, we did this one and I loved every second of it — truly! The people, the stories, the views… This is to say that whatever sparks your interest, give it a try in 2024!
Try a new cuisine. Are you a creature of habit? It’s time to break it. Try something different! You might end up with your best discovery yet, or, be left with some interesting experiences and memories; My husband and I have a good laugh whenever we remember the first time we tried authentic Indian food.
Learn one new skill. Be it for your job, or for your own pleasure and use, make a goal for yourself to learn a new skill this year. It can be learning a new language, painting, DYI-ing, trying your hand at gardening — something small like getting one plant and helping it thrive, etc. Whatever you’ve had in the back of your mind, make it into reality this year?
Push yourself out of your comfort zone by doing something that makes you uncomfortable. This one is as much of an idea for me as it is for you. We all have things/situations that make us feel uncomfortable, and those things are holding us back, of that I am convinced. One of my goals this year is to push myself out of my comfort zone… Will you join me?
Meditate. It’s not a fad. Meditation really does help clear one’s mind, relax, and even promote better sleep. Another goal of mine for this year is to get back to doing it every day. Join me?
