January is the most cliche time of the year to re-invent yourself, but it’s usually the easiest month to actually change your habits. Not only is it the very first month of the year, but there’s a lot of marketing money spent to motivate you to jump back into the gym, purchase a fancy new planner, or even go back to school and advance your career. Fresh off the grind of the holidays, January is an easy way to get back to normal life. While I didn’t make any resolutions or goals last year, I’m in the mood to see what I can make shake in 2026.

With 2023 rapidly coming to an end, it’s hard to remember all the highs and lows of the year. As my husband and I prepare to welcome the blessings of 2024, it’s time to take a look back on all we’ve accomplished and experienced.

As the New Year rapidly approaches, December is always a popular time to start thinking about resolutions to change bad habits and set goals for the upcoming year. Some people jump into a strict fitness regimen while others buckle down from all the holiday spending to achieve some financial milestones. Setting goals for the New Year doesn’t just stop on a personal level. Lots of business owners use this time period to align their visions, thoughts, and ideas to create an action plan for the following year.
