A narrowed approach to a new month will make you stagnant.

The beginning of a new month is generally a very inspiring moment for many people. We all have our perception of what that "New Month" means and many people make it a thing to send Happy New Month messages to those around them. It's a new beginning and an opportunity to set and smash more goals.

Well, this is the first day of April. It's also the beginning of the second quarter of 2024. Imagine what people would already be planning for this new month and for the entire second quarter of the year. I know people who would set a lot of goals about their career, side hustle, workout, dieting, personal development and so much more.

This is indeed a good approach to take, but anyone who has a narrowed approach to what a new month means would always come up with big plans and set big goals for the month. They will follow the plan for the first few days of the month and turn back into their old self who lives life like someone without a plan, purpose, or destination.

If you think hard enough, you will realize that something like that isn't exactly admirable. That narrowed approach to the beginning of a new month doesn't help us improve ourselves and it doesn't help us become successful.

How about you set those goals and work on achieving them throughout the month?

Now, that's some real talk right there. I don't want to set a goal at the beginning of a month. And then, show up at the beginning of every new month to set the same goal because I failed to work towards achieving the goal the first time I set it. Nah! I don't consider that to be a true approach to goal setting in a new month.

What I would rather do and what I would also advise y'all to do is not limited to goal setting. It extends to making a genuine effort to work on every goal you set for the month. You have to consistently do the work throughout the month. Not just on the first day of the month or the first week. That's pretty much how I'm going to work towards the goals I set for myself this month and I'm looking forward to smashing the goal.

It's still the Easter holiday season though. So, enjoy the season and take a deep dive into what the second quarter of 2024 holds in store for us. Also, watch out for the April Fool stunts.
