New year, new start
Doesn’t the new school year always feel a bit like New Year’s Day? It’s another chance at a fresh start. Another chance to get your footing and have a schedule, and be organized and efficient, and to have that routine that spells success in every area of your life.
Okay, that’s what it feels like to us.
What we’ve learned, though, is that getting to that place of organization and efficiency requires a lot of discipline.
Like bedtime. It has to be early – for everyone – as you adjust to a new schedule.
And taking time in the evening to prepare for the morning rush. That includes thinking about clothes, breakfast, lunch, papers/homework, uniforms (laundry!), instruments, projects, and who-knows-what-else – for everyone – the night before.
Routines only feel rigid while we’re getting accustomed to them.
Once they’re actually routines, we find them to be quite liberating. Go ahead. Set some new groundrules. Establish a new routine. It’s your new year. Your new start.
Oh, and to help you get control of the food portion of this new routine – not to mention helping you maintain your own balance and sanity – we have the BOOTY School B.L.A.S.T. class starting tomorrow. When your life is in balance, the whole household runs better. Treat yourself.
