It’s the start of a new month and you’re ready for a fresh beginning. After all, new year, new you doesn’t just have to be a thing in January, right? So right.

There’s nothing like breaking in the start of a new month by doing a few things that’ll leave you feeling organized, energized, and good to go for the remainder of that month.

From setting new goals, to getting your finances in check, and pampering yourself with a little self love, keep reading for  life-changing things you should do at the start of a new month!

1. Set goals at the start of a new month

You may have set some hefty new goals at the beginning of the year, but how have you been keeping up? Setting goals at the start of a new month is a great way to keep you accountable for your bigger and more audacious goals.

Set some time at the beginning of each month to reflect on how the previous month went.

• What did you like about last month?
• Were there any things you didn’t you like?
• What were you hoping to accomplish?
• Did you accomplish it? Why or why not?
• What do you want to do differently looking at the month ahead?
• Do you have any bucket-list things you want to do this month?

Reflect, brainstorm, and set some key goals you want to accomplish for the month ahead. Write them down, and come back to visit them at the beginning of the following month.

2. Plan ahead

They say if you fail to plan, you plan to fail, which just might be accurate in some cases. At the start of a new month, be sure to take some time to look ahead to what the upcoming month entails.

Whose birthdays are coming up this month?

What social events / commitments do you have coming up?

Are you travelling or away from home any of the days?

Is there anything you need to make sure you plan ahead for?

3. Do a deep clean

Next, kick-off the start of a new month with a deep clean — your future self will thank you. Aside from your regular maintenance, scheduling in a once-a-month deep clean can help keep your place organized, clean, and clutter-free. Whether you’re looking to Marie Kondo your place, or just get into a rhythm of spring cleaning, make a list of some of the key things you’ll do as part of your monthly deep clean. That might just include…

• Laundry
• Floors – sweep, vacuum, mop
• Countertops
• Bathroom
• Garbages
• Mirrors
• Fridge

Getting into a cadence of a regular deep clean (especially your fridge – everyone always forgets the fridge!) cleans up and organizes your physical space, which we can all agree helps clear up your mental space, too.
