14 THINGS TO DO BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR

Christmas is over and we only have several days of this year before we step in into the brand new year. I always try to use these last days of December to reflect on the past year, I spend hours writing about it, I look through the pictures and try to reminisce about the year we are leaving behind. Here are some of my suggestions what you could also do before saying goodbye to this year and move on to the new one with a big smile on your beautiful face. 

1.  Give back your debts if you have them, it's not a nice feeling to owe money to someone, it's much better to have all of the money to yourself, isn't it?
2.   Clean your home really well so that you could welcome the new year in a nice and clean home where you feel really good.      
3. Reflect on the year, what you‘ve achieved, what worked, what didn‘t and what you'd like to do differently in a new year.
4. Write down some goals for the upcoming year but be really reasonable with them, we all know how these things work (or don't, in truth). I believe that writing them down also helps a lot.
5. Leave the people and relationships you don‘t need in your life behind, once you realize that there is no space for people who drain you emotionally, you can move on and find some new and inspiring people.
6. Find one thing which scares you that you definitely want to try for the upcoming year. It can be anything from joining a cooking group, a book club or even starting to work out. 
7.  Dream bravely, really bravely, imagine there are no limits in the world, let your imagination go freely and just let yourself dream because dreams can really come true if you really believe in them.
8. Rest as much as you need, recharge your batteries and just spend some quality time with yourself or with friends or family. 
9.   Make up with people if you have had an argument, you don‘t want to go into the new year with unresolved conflicts.
10.  Look through the pictures of the last year and remember all of the good things which have happened in this year. It‘s going to be pretty difficult to me because I love taking pictures and now I have very very much of them, so this is going to be pretty interesting.
11.  Leave all of the things which were wrong behind, leave them all in 2014 and move on to the new year with a peaceful soul and fresh mind.
12.   Be kind to yourself and give yourself some credit for the things you‘ve achieved this year, because I'm pretty sure you have achieved something really important and it doesn‘t matter what others say. If it‘s important to you and you feel like you moved further and grown that means it‘s already an achievement no matter how big or small that is.
13.  Move on to the new year with a big smile on your face
14. While the clock will be striking midnight on the 1st of January, think of something you would really really like to have or find in the new year and believe strongly it will happen.
