22. Gratitude for 2024
Show Notes
Yep you read that right…In this episode we’re going to talk about what you want to create next year that you will be glad you did when next Thanksgiving rolls around.
Even without having any idea what 2024 will hold, we can all decide now on some things we can create no matter what comes our way. After we look back with gratitude on 2023 we will explore some things that we can create in 2024. Things like new habits, goals and even character traits like being more calm and patient. From creating little habits like drinking more water each day to accomplishing big goals like getting out of debt, I’ll give you ideas and inspiration to empower you to make 2024 the best it can be.
Make sure to also get a copy of the free habit tracker linked below that will help you plan out the things you want to achieve and experience in 2024.
