Listen, I know just about everyone is ready to put 2020 to bed. 

But there are still a few things you can do this year that are really, really worth doing. 

Here’s my hit list of things you can still do this year to feel a little bit less fearful, less repressed, more free and more whole:

1. You can thank someone in a deep, specific and heartfelt way. Specifically tell them how you felt as a result of what they did or said or how they showed up for you.
2. You can still start something. What is up to you.
3. You can stop future-tripping, even just for fifteen minutes, and tune yourself to the channel of right now.
4. You can close some open loops.
5. You can end something that you’ve outgrown.
6. You can reconnect to someone.
7. You can disconnect from someone.
8. You can disconnect from your lifelong, automatic fear and scarcity thoughts and remind yourself that they’re just thoughts. They feel real, but they’re not true.
9. You can stop telling that struggle story. Yes, that one.
10. You can still find wisdom in your right-now circumstances.
11. You can still allow yourself to want what you want.
12. You can still get in alignment with whatever it is that you want.
13. You can still ask yourself the question: What’s not in alignment?
14. You can still be honest about what’s not in alignment.
15. You can still be honest with yourself about one single thing that’s not in alignment.
16. You can still release, shed or destroy whatever it is that’s not in alignment. That way of being. That way of thinking about yourself. That relationship pattern. That willingness to participate in low-vibration conversations. Those burdensome belongings. That way of looking at the world. Those beliefs that keep you hiding and holding back. 
17. You can still declutter your house and your speech.
18. You can still start practicing a declaration or mantra like: “I am poised and powerful, radiant and magnetic.”
19. You can still speak life into your dreams, your loved ones and yourself.
20. You can still enjoy this moment. And this one, too.
21. You can still take a baby step toward speaking up for yourself, saying what you mean, asking for what you need. Even one time. Or 100 times, before the end of the year.
22. You can still plant something. In your yard or in your heart.
23. You can still fire someone. From your team or from your life. Lovingly, but still.
24. You can still see what needs seeing.
25. You can still say what needs saying.
26. You can still adopt a dog. Or a highway. Or a person. 
27. You can still change your name. (I just changed mine. I’ll tell you all about it soon.)
28. You can still take a journey, figurative or literal. 
29. You can take a sacred pause.
30. You can create some space. 
31. You can make that space sacred.
32. You can create an altar.
33. You can open your heart to someone.

41. You can rush less. 
42. You can stop doing something you committed to do a long time ago, because it’s someone else’s turn to take over that now. 
43. You can indulge yourself. 
44. You can drape yourself in cashmere. Because: cashmere.
45. You can remove one scarcity-based phrase from your speech. 
46. You can listen to your gut on something you wouldn’t normally.

55. You can drink an extra glass of water every day.
56. You can try meatless Mondays and just see what happens. 
57. You can dedicate 15 minutes a day to sitting and reconnecting with your own inner guidance.
58. You can brain dump all your grudges and grievances out, 2 mornings a week, and leave that drama on the page.
59. You can decide what you want your next season to be about. 
60. You can decide what you stand for and declare what you’re about.
61. You can decide to be joyful for no damn reason.
62. You can bless the memories of those you’ve lost this year or this lifetime.
63. You can bless someone. Anyone. You can go all out and reverse a curse. Or you can just bless your food or grocery delivery driver with a massive tip, even though you’ll never meet them face-to-face.
64. You can decide that life is long and let yourself daydream every day about what wonders could come into your life, in hypothetical, surprising and delightful ways.
65. You can say a prayer.
66. You can say I love you.
67. You can open your heart.
68. You can open your mind.

70. You can close your struggle portfolio. Stop rehashing. Stop re-injuring yourself.
71. You can start a new season. Fresh and new. Starting now. 

Head up + heart out,
