193: Creating Your Don't Do List in 2024

Create a ‘don’t do’ list in 2024. This list has at least three things that you did in 2023 that don’t fulfill your core desires and that you will no longer do in 2024. Honoring your core desires and setting boundaries to protect them is what we want in 2024 – this is how you’ll start living your best life. In this episode, I talk about creating a ‘don’t do’ list, give examples that might go on yours, and talk about the importance of setting boundaries.   Key Takeaways: How to Have an Amazing 2024 Put three things on your ‘don’t do’ list. Think about three core desires you want to feel this year. Your to-do list becomes this amazing space where you can create whatever you want.   How to Create a ‘Don’t Do’ List A ‘don’t do’ list is a list of all the things that don’t serve you. Think back to this year. What did you do in 2023 that didn’t serve you? What didn’t feel good or meet your core desires? Now, think about your core desires. What are they? By combining these two things – what doesn’t serve you and what your core desires are – you can create your ‘don’t do’ list for 2024. This is the year we don’t do the things that are not in alignment with our core desires. Set Boundaries to Protect Your Core Desires Figuring out your core desires always comes back to determining your why. Why do you do what you do? What do you truly want to do? Maybe even more importantly – what don’t you want to do? In this episode, I give many examples of core desires that might serve you best in 2024, some of which are definitely on my list. Do any of these resonate with you? Finally, I want to talk about the importance of boundaries with your ‘don’t do’ list. Boundaries are especially important when you’re dealing with the things you put on your ‘don’t do’ list – they’re on there for a reason! Set boundaries so you are more likely to stick to your ‘don’t do’ list. What do you desire most in 2024? What three things are going on your ‘don’t do’ list?
