NEW YEAR, ELEVATED INTENTIONS

Well, we made it to 2025. 

For me personally, 2024 was full of so much growth in different areas of my life. Growth was my word of the year for 2024 and I feel I truly embraced it. 

I am so proud of my persistence with working towards my goals, developing new skills, and even expanding my professional career. 

Of course, using my planner on a daily basis was a key component of my growth and success. 

PLANNING

Chances are, if you’re subscribed to this newsletter, you already use a planner. But let me tell you, using your planner with INTENTION and staying CONSISTENT will truly transform your life. When you actually look ahead week-to-week, month-to-month, examine your habits and routines, and intentionally plan, you will make progress by leaps and bounds. I guarantee you will surprise yourself with how much you are able to accomplish. 

We are all capable of growth. The truth is, it really doesn’t take as much input as you’d think to make some progress. You only have 5 minutes today? Okay, work with it. Read something, listen to a video or podcast, write some notes, make a sketch. There are so many ways you can utilize even 5 minutes to help yourself make progress with your goals and dreams. 

If you are keeping these items written in your planner, you will have reminders to keep you on track and moving forward. Life is hectic and will pass you by in a heartbeat. Time won’t wait for you. So you’ve got to make the most of your time and take control of how you are using it. Planning is the perfect way to accomplish this. Set some intentions for the New Year and keep them in your planner!

INTENTIONS

This year, let’s focus on elevating our intentions. 

To me, elevating our intentions means that we focus on the purpose behind our actions and goals. We use our intentions as a guide when setting goals or ourselves.

Anyone else not a fan of the word “resolutions?” My sister and I had this conversation about how resolution sounds so formal and rigid. So the “NEW YEAR, ELEVATED INTENTIONS” collection was born! 

Get the “NEW YEAR, ELEVATED INTENTIONS” journaling card set here.

The “NEW YEAR, ELEVATED INTENTIONS” Dashboard is perfect to keep in the front of your planner all year. Write your intentions for the year and use this dashboard as a guide for your planning and decision-making. The dashboard is currently available in my standard shop sizes, if you would like a different size, please message me on Etsy or Instagram!

Let’s focus on our big-picture, overall intentions for how we want this year to look. What do you want to prioritize? What areas of your life do you want to improve? What interests would you like to pursue? Start there. Once you have that list, you can then create goals and action steps to help you accomplish those things. 

Use your written intentions to reference and let them be a guide for your actions. Ask yourself if what you’re doing aligns with your intentions or will help you achieve your goals. 

SOME OF MY INTENTIONS

Some of my personal intentions for the new year include:

• Prioritizing creativity
• Pursuing professional opportunities that I enjoy doing / bring me closer to my goal of working for myself
• Growing my brand
• Focusing on my mental health and inner peace
• Improving on my skills and learning new ones
• Planning for and embracing new adventures

Your intentions list doesn’t need to be very technical or complicated. Just be true to yourself, decide how you want to grow, and the rest will follow!
