Fall

Fall can be beautiful but also can be nostalgic.

Leaves are falling; days are shorter, and the sun is not so warm as it used to be.

Unlike spring which inspires new beginnings, autumn is a time when many people start to slow down and become more insular.

There will be days, sometimes even weeks when you feel totally demotivated, and when this happens, an injection of inspiration can be just what you need to get back into action.

It can be extremely tempting at this time of year to get home from work, curl up with a blanket and a cup of hot chocolate and not move again until it is time for bed.

But do not worry. We do have ideas on how to stay motivated and happy these days.

Review your goals and intentions. This is the perfect time of the year for reflection.

This is the perfect time of the year for reflection.

Firstly, look back and review how far you have come.

Assess where you are right now and what you need to do to achieve your goals and intentions over the coming months.

What action do you need to take?

What changes need to be made?

2. Remember your why.

A vision board is a tool you can create as an instant visual reminder of your why.

You can also write your own personal mission statement that you read at the start of your day and before you go to sleep each night.

3. Stay inspired.
Make a list of all the things that inspire you such as books, music, films, blogs, TED talks, and have them on standby so have them to hand as and when you need them.

Additionally, spend lots of time with people who inspire you and make you feel excited about life, no matter what the weather is like outside.

4. Declutter your home.

As you tend to spend more time indoors during the autumn and winter months, it can be a wonderful time to declutter.

Spring is typically associated with clearing out your home for a fresh start, but there is no reason you cannot also have a cleanup at this time of the year.

In fact, it is an ideal time to put away all your summer clothes and furnishings and dust off your knitwear, winter coats, boots, heavy curtains, and blankets.

Get rid of anything that no longer brings you joy.

Your home should be a place where you feel cozy and at peace.

We wish you nothing but splendor.
