New Year’s Day – 1.1.2024 amyvandermark, January 1, 2024January 1, 2024 BLOG POST Monday, January 1, 2024 The First Entry for the new year. New Years Eve was nice. I was on the Las Vegas Strip and enjoyed the fireworks. It surprised me most with how many tourists were visiting from other countries versus domestic tourists. I’ve never really spent New Years on the strip, and did not know what to expect. I even had a New Years kiss – that was exciting in it’s own right as well. OK – now that the festivities are done – time to act on all of the work I have put in motion. – Amy New Years Resolutions I’m not really a New Years Resolution kind of person. I like making changes that are better for me in the short and long term, though I do not always associate them with the start of the new year. My favorite thing to do is to identify changes that I would like to make in November, practice in December, so that when January comes around, I have a new formed habit that I am acting on, versus trying to keep up. This year, I am really focused on my finances. I have every day pegged with the money coming in and where it is going. My grandfather taught me to “pay yourself first” and savings/retirement are big on that list. I am excited to finally have a “vacation savings account” that I contribute toward instead of scrambling to pull money together when I want to do something or go somewhere. Being more intentional with my savings and spending has taken on a new priority and I am pretty jazzed about it. I started this habit back in the summer of 2023, and it has evolved over the months to now, I am really focused on success. That is a cool feeling. I would like to be a little more consistent on my exercise and health. I am of the belief that our longevity is dependent off of mental and nutritional diet along with how keep our body in motion. I’ll keep you updated with the changes that I put into effect on that front.Until tomorrow.
