Harpers Bazaar explained that Lucky Girl Syndrome encourages individuals to repeatedly affirm their good fortune to manifest positive outcomes like promotions or pay raises.  While some see it as a form of toxic positivity , the author recommends the WOOP approach - Wish, Outcome, Obstacle, Plan, which incorporates realistic planning and anticipation of challenges. 

Remember years ago when we all read the book The Secret  which taught us that us about the law of attraction and how you can make anything you want happen if you believe in it enough. Lucky Girl Syndrome Affirmations is all about reprogramming your mindset into thinking I am good enough, smart enough, capable enough and worthy of all my desires. You have to believe you can do anything because that thought will create your reality. When you’re operating on a frequency of having high gratitude, more things will just flow into your life. Here are the affirmations I have for myself that promote abundance, ease, and good luck. Write yours in the present tense. 

Everyone is making these lists and I love them. They feel like a low-stakes way to to set some soft goals (and anti-goals) for the year. Below are my what to leave in 2024 with little or no explanation. 2025 is going to be our best year yet!

Here are 25 powerful steps to help you glow up in 2025 and become the best version of yourself. This is your path to manifesting everything you desire in life. Commit to the plan—don’t wait for the perfect mood. Waiting to feel "ready" or "motivated" only leads to inconsistency and missed goals. Instead, take action, even when you don’t feel like it. Procrastination will keep you stuck in the same cycle of unfulfilled goals year after year. Stop waiting for the right moment. Your progress starts now, even if it’s not perfect. Focus on starting, not timing. Embrace challenges—they are the stepping stones to growth.

Your habits shape who you are, and small actions compound to create the person you become. Plan your days, structure your weeks, and make every moment count. Health is wealth—your body is your most valuable asset, so take care of it. Your style, hair, and makeup are extensions of your self-expression—experimenting with your appearance can be a powerful motivator. Personally, I love the fresh start that comes with the new year—it's a chance to reset, recharge, and refocus. Set new goals, rebuild better habits, and create a solid foundation for the year ahead.

Happy New Year! Happy 2024. I am so looking forward to this new year and all the exciting things its going to be bringing. If you want 2024 to be different from 2023, set goals for yourself and implement a plan to get there. Change is good, it helps us grow and evolve. Resolutions are all about reinventing yourself which is just improving and upgrading yourself.  I do not want to be the exact same person I was 5 years ago. Don't make your goals too big, break them up into smaller steps to make it easier to achieve. Here are some questions to ask yourself when creating your goals: 

What characteristics does the best version of myself have?

What routine does the best version of myself follow?

What activities does the best version of myself often do?

Did you know that people who write down their goals are 20% more successful in accomplishing them than those who don't?  If you want to reinvent yourself  you can 100% do it! 

There's a different way you could also do your resolutions. Instead of doing big new years resolutions for the whole year,  you can have a new years resolution for each month so it doesn't feel super overwhelming at the beginning of the year trying to accomplish a bunch of goals at once. So for instance you can do a No Buy January (no coffee out, no new clothes, no takeout, no new makeup unless its empty, no new candles (you bought plenty of Christmas candles), use canned goods before buying more, bring lunch to work). I do Dry January every year and some people do veganuary.  Think of it as a 2024 reset guide to rethink ways to reach your goals with a different approach. Get in your hot girl walks while listening to podcasts, try new hobbies, take your magnesium and do yoga before bed. 

My closet is so full I've run out of hangers and I'm not buying any more. I want to purge and declutter and that's my number one goal. I want to make 2024 the year of organization and cleanliness.  

Happy New Year! It's officially 2022 and we've survived season 2 of the pandemic but sadly we're onto season 3. First things first, let's leave behind the word cheugy in 2021 and I predict that 2022 is going to be the year of the Espresso Martini! lol My 2022 planner is in the mail because I bought it late, but I have all the stickers ready. I also love to write monthly goals in my planner. I am doing Dry January again this year. I know a lot of people choose a word of the year to encompass all that they want to embody throughout the year. However, I couldn't pick one, but these were my finalists for Word of the Year: discipline, consistency, unstoppable, grateful, adapt, positivity, abundance, glow, surrender.
