to start every new year
grab your fluffy pen and notebook besties. this is our year! claim it! this year and beyond it’s a must that we gain confidence, have goals, ideas, self love and the will to bring our vision boards to life. i put together this guide to help keep myself on the right path and for you all to get inspiration to do the same ఇ
🎀 ⋆ ⟡ 𓂃 ﾟ｡🎀 ⋆ ⟡ ﾟ｡🎀 ⋆ ⟡ 𓂃 ﾟ｡🎀 ⋆ ⟡
1 ) Attitude
pretty girl with a pretty attitude to match
making sure we have a positive attitude will always help us succeed in whatever we do. i know things can go wrong and can be discouraging but trying to look on the bright side and being optimistic will make life so much better. if something does go wrong, we have to try not to completely shut down, we should take a moment to process what happened, see if there’s a possible way to fix it, then do so.. and if there’s not we must feel whatever it is we are feeling (whether that’s sad, angry, frustrated etc), then eventually let go of that negative feeling, accept the outcome, then move on gracefully
this also applies to just everyday life situations. we don’t want to be known for having a nasty attitude in general. let’s try to check ourselves in the exact moment we realize that we’re being rude or bitchy. now i’m not saying be fake nice or anything like that because it’s normal to get an attitude at times, i know i do. i just mean we should be more mindful when speaking to others and try to consider their feelings as well
2 & 3 ) Affirmations and Manifestations
Affirming
it’s important to recite positive affirmations to yourself daily, truly believe what you’re saying and watch how beautiful life blooms for you.
some New Year affirmations to get us started
this year will be my best year yet
this year will be very luxurious for me
i am healing from my past
i have the power to create the life i desire
nothing can stop me from living the life of my dreams
this is my glow up year
i choose to love and accept myself unconditionally
i will be gentle and patient with myself this year
i will put in the work to make my vision board come to life
i will do things from here on out that will make my younger self proud and things that my future self will thank me for
Manifesting
bringing my desires to life
make a vision board with everything you desire (it’s not too late) ... it can be tangible : getting supplies you need at the store so you can hang it up in your room, it can be on Pinterest, it can even be in your notes.. however you want to do it, it’s up to you ෆ it’s the intent behind it that matters 🎀
manifest daily or weekly (have a journal and a pen for manifesting only)
Put In The Work : manifesting is all about strongly believing and knowing that you already have what you want but that doesn’t mean you should sit there and do nothing, you also have to have the will to make your visions come to life, work towards your goals and dreams.
4 ) Pretty On The Inside And Out
look good feel good. it’s time to get ourselves together girls, inside and out. no more putting things off, no more being lazy & no more being careless with how we come across and make others feel ♡
this year we are making our health a priority by eating better. let’s consume more fruit, more salads, more water etc .
let’s workout more often - go to the gym, try pilates, try yoga, try zumba etc
you can even romanticize working out so it can be a better experience for you. buy cute workout clothes , pieces that will motivate you to want to workout. buy cute workout necessities .. for example : pink yoga mats , pink water bottle , pink towel , pink dumbbells , pink bag to carry everything , bring your headphones to listen to your favorite music while working out
meditate !! life can be so stressful and it can take a toll on us mentally, physically and have us take our frustration out on others, so my suggestion would be to meditate regularly. meditation is a big part of my daily life. it helps me calm myself and makes me really relaxed. you can do it in silence or with some calming meditation music/sounds (i use meditation music mostly because it helps me concentrate
let’s work on our personalities - being a mean girl is so lame. let’s be more considerate, more generous, more thoughtful, more mindful, more caring, more compassionate. give compliments and give advice with good intentions.
keep our nails and toes done (and when i say done you don’t have to get acrylic & tips if you’re not into that, i mean keep your nails and toes clean & filed)
make healthy hair a priority
make clear skin a priority
dive into your personal style (see #8)
5 ) Journal Prompts
journaling is free therapy !!!
it’s important to start a new day, new week, new month and new year with journal prompts
journal prompts help us sort out how we feel
doing these help guide us on what we need to work on within ourselves and help us remain appreciative by writing down what we are grateful for regularly
each day or each journal entry write down one or three things you’re grateful for
each week write down 3 goals you want to accomplish
you can look up journal prompts on pinterest, make up your own or buy a journal with them already in there (i suggest having one of these because it’s so helpful and easy to get started if you don’t really know how)
journaling is a free form of therapy. i suggest journaling a lot because other than the fact that it’s very healing, some people don’t have others to talk to or they may not feel comfortable being so vulnerable with people, so journaling is a great alternative. it’s like your own personal therapy session 💗
when you’re sad, depressed, anxious, happy, overwhelmed, grateful etc ! writing down how you feel can help so much. even when you don’t know exactly how you’re feeling, just jot down any words that come to mind
here’s some of my Journal Prompts for the new year ↓
6 ) Beauty and BRAINS
learning never gets old. there’s always something new to learn and it’s always good to keep your mind sharp!
read more
listen to podcasts
search and look up things you’re interested in
be thirsty for knowledge even if you’re done with school
teach yourself something new! like a new hobby, sewing to make your own clothes, crocheting, painting, learn to do your own nails, learn to do your own hair .. the possibilities are endless
7 ) Cull Cull Cull
out with the old, in with the new
go through your following lists on all social media and unfollow accounts that’s not good for your mental health, accounts that don’t serve you in any way!
go through your emails and delete junk mail
go through your contact list and delete numbers you never call, block people who are toxic and even change your number if you feel like it will benefit you in the long run
unsubscribe from things that no longer serves purpose
go through your closet and get rid of everything you’re not wearing, everything that’s taking up space .. donate it all!
clean out your vanity/ makeup case! throw out all old makeup, clean your makeup brushes, clean your hair brushes (better yet buy new ones), wash your scrunchies and hair ties
8 ) Style
find your style this year! start buying pieces that you love!
what kind of clothing makes you feel good about yourself?
what are you comfortable wearing?
what makes you feel pretty?
play around with some things until you find what’s right for you <3
buy timeliness pieces
do you like to wear color? neutrals? black and white?
be mindful when shopping
make sure everything you buy is something you love and something you want a part of your dream wardrobe
keep in mind, you do not have to break the bank to get cute outfits! you can thrift, you can go to places like Target, F21, find pieces on depop etc .. so don’t ever feel like you can’t be cute on a budget <3
it’s time to stop living through others and live life ourselves! ♡
you can create a beautiful wardrobe just like your favorite influencer! you can do anything you want to do, start anywhere! even if you’re starting from scratch, one piece will eventually turn into lots of pieces and in no time you will have the closet of your dreams !
extra tips: my post on how to find your aesthetic ↓
9 ) Romanticizing life
it’s up to us to make our lives magical and worth living! romanticizing life is such a good way to do that.
ways to romanticize your life
use your best things! don’t wait for a “special” time to wear your favorite clothes or perfume, make everyday special
buy yourself flowers
take yourself on a date
play dress up with all of your pretty clothes
have tea using fancy teacups / tea kettle
use candles or fairy lights for cozy vibes instead of regular lights around the house
watch the sunrise / sunset
when you wake up comb your hair and put on something cute and comfy even if you are staying home
take yourself shopping and out to lunch regularly
get dolled up just to take pictures
find a spot under a tree and read
make your room your favorite place to be, your sanctuary <3
write love letters
explore a library or museum
take bubble baths regularly with candles, rose petals, crystals and soft music playing
do face masks and mani/pedis on yourself for an at home spa day
go to a coffee shop to journal
one by one replace all of your things until everything you own is pretty and aesthetic .. even little things
example : hair brush, combs, hand mirror, vitamin/pill case, water bottle, cookware, bath towels etc
10 ) Girl Power
there’s so many of us online who have similar tastes in things and seem cool and i’m sure you know someone in real life like this too and i know we can be shy or scared to approach people but we should make it a goal this year to be friendlier to one another
we should step out of our comfort zone and make friends with girls who seem cool to us
we should uplift eachother
we should give credit when credits due
be less messy
leave the drama behind
no more mean girl persona
you never know, you could meet your new best friend sometime this year <3

It-Girling 101 :
you are a goddess, act like it
you have to be confident
you are beautiful, smart, talented and so much more. there’s nothing wrong with acknowledging that and being proud of that. if you don’t hype yourself up, who will? take those selfies, say your self love affirmations in the mirror, wear your cutest clothes that make you feel prettiest! you are the sh!t , don’t let anyone make you feel less than, ever
be proud of everything you do, even the “small things” because everything you achieve is an accomplishment, nothing goes unnoticed
speak up for yourself! if you don’t like something or how something is going then let it be known! don’t let anyone take your voice from you
stand strong on your beliefs and don’t let anyone sway you
you have to respect yourself
learn how to say ‘no’ to things that don’t feel right to you, even if it may hurt someone else’s feelings
prioritize your needs and wants! you deserve to be happy, comfortable and have the things you desire
set healthy boundaries and stick to them! have a mindset of, people will respect me and my limits or they won’t be in my life at all, period!
don’t just date or be friends with anyone. surround yourself with people who treat you right, who don’t call you out of your name, who are kind to you, who are gentle with you, who care about your hopes and dreams, who won’t put their hands on you, ever! people who don’t make you feel bad about yourself, people who love you unconditionally, someone who will never treat you like garbage, someone who won’t belittle you
treat your body like a temple and only be with someone romantically because you really want to and have feelings for them and not because you feel pressured to or you think you deserve less than
you have to treat yourself like a prize because you are a prize! don’t forget, the way you treat yourself is how other people will treat you. so walk with pride and make sure your standards are high always 💓

Having an abundance mindset is being able to see the world through eyes of abundance. Majority of people move through the chaos of the world with a defeated attitude but the Winner glides through life seeing opportunity in all things. Unfortunate events are bound to happen but the Winner stays positive regardless of these temporary circumstances. They are able to see themselves winning before it even happens.
These are the types of people that could be going through the worst experience of their lives but are bale to remain relaxed and carefree. Others are often perplexed at how unbothered they are. But as mentioned above, the Winner knows they've ALREADY WON. They continue to celebrate life and don't take a moment for granted.
CHARACTERISTICS OF A WINNERS MINDSET
