Happy Monday, friends!! Can you believe it’s February 1st? I feel like January flew by.
I am staying in today and getting caught up on laundry. The chore that never ends, ha!
I wanted to invite y’all to do a challenge with me this month. I’m calling it the Five in February Challenge.
I’m thinking of five habits that I want to work on this month.
It’s so easy to become overwhelmed with everything we want to work on or get better at. Choosing five habits helps you narrow it down to what’s most important.
Some of these habits, I’ve mastered before but over the last couple of months, I’ve struggled to get back to doing them.
For instance, I am a bed-maker. I make my bed every single day, but for the last few months I haven’t done it. Also, I have a great laundry system to keep me caught up but I haven’t followed it the last couple of months.
Sometimes we just need a restart. Something to get us back on track and I am choosing this month to get my habits back!
It takes 21 days to form a habit and February has 28 days so that is perfect.
Let’s do this, girls! Let’s get our habits back or create new ones that will help us be more productive with our days.
Here are my Five for February:
1. Make my bed everyday.
2. 1-2 loads of Laundry 6/7 days each week. Fold and put away immediately.
3. Clean up the kitchen every evening.
4. Make my to do lists each night.
5. Eat at home as much as possible.
I’m not going to feel sorry for myself as you shouldn’t either. Life is busy!
But I also know that for me, I can’t be productive in chaos. I need order. And routine helps me stay productive. These five habits will help me get back on track and help me begin and end my days well.
What are you working towards this month? Your habits may be geared towards your health goals or maybe towards your financial goals. Whatever it may be, let’s do it together! Every Monday I will give you an update on how mine are going and I would love to hear from you, too!
Now doing five at once may be overwhelming to you. List all five, but start with one. Do only one for a couple of days and then add a second for a couple of more days and then a third and so on and so on. This will help you baby step it through February. You can do this!
Let’s keep each other accountable while encouraging one another.
We can do this!
Let’s take back our life, babes! One habit at a time!
Here’s an old post I wrote that may help you get started!
Have a fabulous Monday, friends!!

Love this idea! And thanks for the push. I need that push to just write down my goals.
I’m glad it encouraged you! Writing down our goals is so powerful!
