How Hyper Organized People Stay on Track Every Month 😌 Full Life Reset Routine

It's a new month, and that means it's time to hit the monthly reset button! In this video, I’ll walk you through my comprehensive monthly review and reset process using my Notion Life Operating System — a complete system designed to keep my personal life, goals, and finances organized. Whether you’re looking to build better habits, improve your budgeting strategy, or set meaningful goals, this step-by-step guide will help you reset and refresh each month with intention. 🔄 What You'll Learn in This Monthly Reset Video: ✅ Step 1: Monthly Reflection with Visual Memories I start my reset by reflecting on the past month using a Canva photo collage that captures meaningful moments — from family time and self-care to stressful work moments that deserve reflection. ✅ Step 2: Financial Check-In Using YNAB (You Need a Budget) I break down my detailed monthly budgeting process using YNAB, including: How I categorize transactions and review spending Managing my Japan 2025 trip budget and unexpected expenses Using a buffer fund for forgotten expenses Tracking savings goals like my emergency fund, treadmill fund, and vacation fund ✅ Step 3: Scheduling for the Month Ahead I update my Notion Content Calendar, review my family’s schedule, and confirm appointments like my son's haircut, my dog's grooming, and my nail appointments to ensure I’m staying organized. ✅ Step 4: Task Review & Prioritization I check my outstanding tasks in both my digital Notion system and my paper planner (where I use a bullet journal method). Tasks that still need attention are migrated to the right place in my Notion system. ✅ Step 5: Mail & Admin Clean-Up I tackle the dreaded monthly mail pile — including reviewing bills, scheduling payments, and dealing with unexpected surprises like... multiple speeding tickets. (Oops!) ✅ Step 6: Family Day Planning & Fun Ideas I brainstorm and document fun weekend plans in Notion, like taking a Tea Tour in Washington, DC or visiting Richmond, Virginia for a family bookstore day. ✅ Step 7: Goal Review & Tracking I reflect on my monthly goals, assess progress toward my quarterly goals, and set new intentions for the month ahead. For example: 🎯 Achieving my 150 lb weight goal 🎥 Creating at least 3 YouTube videos per month 💰 Continuing to build my Japan travel savings fund ✅ Step 8: Personal Reflection & Mindset I discuss what went well this month, lessons learned, and what I’d like to improve. This month’s biggest takeaway? Embracing flexible coping strategies and preparing for my exciting (and slightly stressful) trip to Japan 2025. 🎯 Why This Monthly Reset Routine Matters A thorough monthly reset helps me stay calm, focused, and productive — especially during stressful times like transitioning to a new job, managing family life, and preparing for my upcoming international trip. It’s part of my commitment to blending productivity with mental well-being. 📋 Resources Mentioned in This Video: 📊 Notion Life Operating System - Coming Soon 💰 YNAB (You Need a Budget) - https://www.ynab.com/referral 📅 Canva Collage Creator - www.canva.com 🚨 Let Me Know!
