How to Change Your Life in a Year

You don’t need to move to a yurt or become a morning person to change your life. Just start with weird little habits that make you feel slightly less like a goblin every day.

1. Speak Kindly to Yourself

You’re not a failure, you’re just a human burrito figuring things out. Be nice. Especially in your head.

2. Romanticize the Boring Stuff

Light a candle while paying bills. Dance while doing dishes. Pretend your life is a weirdly wholesome indie movie.

3. Do One Brave Thing a Week

Text first. Apply anyway. Say “no” with your whole chest. Courage is a muscle—and yours needs a workout.

4. Create Before You Consume

Before you scroll, write something. Paint something. Make a plan. Or just put on pants. That counts too.

5. Celebrate Ridiculous Wins

Drank water? YES. Didn’t cry in public today? ICON. You’re building momentum, one tiny miracle at a time.

You don’t need a new life. You need new habits, better self-talk, and maybe a snack.
