90 DAYS

When your phone or computer gets slow or something isn't working the way it should, one of the first pieces of advice people give you is: restart it.

Sometimes I think it would be amazing to have a little button like that for ourselves. Turn off for a moment, turn back on, and feel like our chip is running a little better.

Maybe our way of doing that is to stop, take a step back, and take a little inventory of how we're doing. Ask ourselves: what's working? What needs my attention? What could be different?

There are times of year when I feel that need more strongly. At the start of January, after the summer, or when the seasons change. I get the urge to gain some perspective, get back to those routines I've drifted away from over time, review my habits, and take care of those pending tasks I've been putting off.

But the truth is, we don't have to wait for one of those times. Not even for a Monday or a specific day. And I think that's exactly the beauty of resetting: every day can be an opportunity to start over.

If you watched my latest YouTube video, The Art of Resetting, I showed you a little of what my own reset looked like when I came back in September. And while part of that process for me starts with very practical things, there's also a lot of inner work behind it.

Because a reset isn't only about cleaning out the closet, going back to the gym, or getting back into a routine. Sometimes those small things already represent a big change. But it's also about stopping to reflect and realizing what we've been putting off, what's taking up our time or energy, and what we'd like to focus on over the next few months.

Maybe for you it means paying more attention to your physical or mental health. Maybe spending less time scrolling on social media. Getting back to something that used to do you good. Or even creating a little distance from someone you feel is draining more energy than they're giving you.

For me, that process usually starts with organizing the things that are within my reach: my spaces, the house, my schedules, my calendar. Letting go of things I no longer use, getting some pending tasks in order, and knowing what's ahead of me.

I feel like organizing the things I can control helps me feel a little calmer about all the other things I can't organize or control.

But this time I also opened my journal.

I started taking a kind of inventory and reflecting on each area of my life: my personal life, work, my family, my home. I thought about the things I want to keep because they do me good, but also about the ones I'd like to change.

And as I did it, I thought: why not share this exercise with you?

That's where this little guide came from.

It's basically the same exercise I did: a space to sit down for a bit, look at our lives from another perspective, and ask ourselves where we are and how we'd like to live these next 90 days.

Not to make a huge list of everything we have to change, or goals that end up making us feel bad for not reaching them. Quite the opposite. I wanted it to be short, concrete, and to the point.

Because the changes don't have to be huge either.

We can write "I want to take better care of myself" and simply start by drinking more water. We can want to move a project forward and decide to dedicate a few minutes to it each day. It can be sending that email we've been putting off for weeks, or finally putting a date on something we always leave for later.

I think that's an important part of the exercise: turning what we want into small actions we can actually build into our day to day.

Sometimes an intention feels huge until we break it down into small things we can actually do.

And we don't have to do everything either.

This guide isn't meant to become a list of a thousand obligations or to leave us more overwhelmed than when we started. It's simply a space to reflect, put things down on paper, and decide what deserves a little more of our attention right now.

Maybe your reset is making that appointment you've been putting off, getting back to something you know does you good, organizing a drawer or the inside of your car, writing again, or putting a date on an idea that's been going around in your head for months.

We don't have to wait until January, the start of a month, or next Monday.

90 days may seem like a short time, but they can also be a whole lot.

I'll leave you the link here so you can download the guide completely free, right on your phone. I hope you like it and, above all, that it helps you give yourselves that little moment for yourselves.

With love, xx
