I have always loved the start of a new month. It does not need to be some huge fresh start but I look at it as a way to step back and reevaluate my past month and set a new tone to cater to my next month's goals, tasks, and fun events.
I started making a new desktop wallpaper each month to get excited about what all that month will bring. Finding new quotes that resonate with my struggles or feelings in that moment and small graphics to represent the mood I want to embody gives me a bit of excitement when I open my laptop. It reminds me what I wanted for myself that month even when it's suddenly halfway through and I can’t remember the date.
It’s fun to look back and see what pictures I chose that month or how the quotes influenced my mindset. Although only a little part of my day it helps me connect pieces of my life together as the months go on, and be grateful for all the goodness and growth I have gone through.
