Important days of the month (🎀the not-so-cliché edition🎀) 

Normally we track a lot of days like birthdays, tax filing days, our appointments, cycles, and the list is endless. 

But this new set of days will make sure your month is productive and fun!

1. “Goal Setting” Day: 

Pick a day, preferably in the first week of the month, to sit and write down your big and small goals you want to achieve by the end of the month. These can be from doing a long-due task to decluttering your workspace.

Write 'em all down. You can check your progress at the end of the month and analyze. 🔍 

Check this blog to set SMART goals for the month. 

2. “Get Things Done” Day:

Managing so many tasks at once is a big deal, we get it. And sometimes it leads to a few things getting piled up. Like the unfolded laundry, or the meal prep you want to do, to avoid takeouts. 

Pick days 🗓️ to tackle these mammoth tasks! You need a to-do list for sure.
