September Reset

September 6, 2023

I am so excited that September is finally here. Autumn is my favorite season and September is the kick off of that!

I will be extremely busy at work this month, but that will not keep me from leaning into what this month holds. This past week I spent some time setting my intentions for the month as well as setting some goals, and during that process I wanted to spend some time looking into what I wanted my month to look like.

Monthly goals:

• Spend more time outside and soak in the way the temperatures are changing.

• Read at least one book – I am not going to have as much down time so I want to set my goal a little lower. Not by much, though, I have made the goal to read two books the last couple months, but I have been falling short.

• Take time to journal on a regular basis.

• Spend time in my sketchbook.

• Talk to a family member at least once a week.

• Start planning ahead for the holidays – they will be here before we know it.

My word of the month is Intentional – because I am going to be busy, I want to make sure I am being intentional with my time and not spreading myself too thin with too many goals. I want to make sure that I am focused on having a slow month in spite of the speed of the work ahead.

September is a combination of the end of summer and the beginning of autumn. I am so excited to see what this transitional month holds!
