🗓️ How to Change Your Life in 30 Days

🔄 First, Let's Talk About Why This Works

If you’ve ever told yourself “30 days isn’t enough time to really change my life” — here’s the truth:

30 days isn’t about perfection. It’s about momentum.

Most people stay stuck not because they don’t care, but because they don’t have a clear starting point. This guide gives you one.

In 30 days, you’ll:

Get clear on who you are and what you want
Build real momentum with flexible routines
Start making decisions that align with your future self

And while your life may not look totally different on the outside just yet, your inner world? That’s about to shift. And that’s what changes everything.

Week 1 — The Check-In

✨ Where am I right now?

Day 1: Take Inventory

On a blank page, list out all the major areas of your life: Health, Career, Relationships, Finances, Fun, Self-Worth, etc.
For each area, rate your satisfaction 1-10.
Optional: This exercise is also found as the "Where I Am" worksheet inside the Self Help Planner.

Day 2: Energy Audit

Fold a page into two columns: "What energizes me" and "What drains me."
Write freely. Don’t edit.

Day 3: The Avoidance List

Ask: What tasks, habits, or conversations have I been avoiding?
Be honest. Write down anything that feels like resistance.

Day 4: Identify Your Challenges

What’s felt hard lately? Where do you feel stuck?
Write down the 3 most common thoughts that keep looping in your head.

Day 5: Environment Reset

Look around. What in your space adds stress?
Declutter 1 small area: a drawer, a corner, your desktop, etc.

Day 6: Journal Prompt

Write: “What do I secretly wish I could change?”
Let it flow. Don’t censor it.

Day 7: Spotlight What Needs You

From your life areas in Day 1, choose 1 area that needs the most attention.
Write why it matters to you right now.

🧬 Why This Works: You can’t move forward if you don’t know what’s holding you back.

☕️ Rest Point: What to Do if You Fall Behind

Don’t start over. Just pick up at today.
Combine 2 days if needed.
Focus on the most impactful activity of the week (try Day 2 or Day 6).

Week 2 — Purpose & Planning

🎯 What do I want + why?

Day 8: Rate Your Goals

Pick 3-5 goals you think you want.
Score them 1-10 based on how much they matter right now.
Optional: The Goal Rating worksheet is available in the planner.

Day 9: Find Your WHY

For each goal, answer: "Why do I want this?"
Repeat the question 3x to dig deeper.

Day 10: Choose the One

Pick the 1 goal that matters most.
Ask: If I only made progress on one thing this month, what would make the biggest impact?

Day 11: Gut Check

Ask: Is this goal really mine? Or does it belong to someone else’s expectations?

Day 12: Micro-Moves

Brainstorm 5 tiny steps you could take toward your goal.
Keep it simple: emails, 10-minute sessions, decisions, etc.

Day 13: Focus Areas

Choose 3 key areas to focus on this month (ex: Health, Career, Relationships).
These are your North Stars.

Day 14: Write Your Monthly Vision

Complete the sentence: “By the end of this month, I want to feel…"

🔹 Remember: Clarity comes after you commit—not before.

🌿 Rest Point: What to Do if You Fall Behind

Just do Day 10. One solid goal + vision carries the rest.
Use 10-minute brain dumps if time is tight.
You don’t need 100% clarity to keep going.

Week 3 — Build Routines that Stick

📄 This is the week it clicks.

Day 15: Habit Audit

List out your current habits.
Label each: “Working,” “Neutral,” or “Not working.”
Optional: Use the Habit Audit page from the planner.

Day 16: Build a Baseline

Using the 4x4 Method: create 1 low-effort version of your routine.
This becomes your "minimum viable routine."

Day 17: Pick 1 Habit Per Category

Choose 1 small habit for each: Health, Mindset, Money, Movement

Day 18: Assign Time Anchors

When in the day will each habit happen? Pair it with a trigger (ex: after coffee).

Day 19: Bad Mood Version

Create a bare-minimum plan for days when energy is low.

Day 20: Test Run

Try a full day with your routine.
Don’t aim for perfection. Just observe.

Day 21: Reflect + Adjust

What worked? What didn’t? What felt good?
Adjust your routine to fit your real life.

✨ Tip: You don’t need to do it all. You just need to stay consistent.

⛰️ Rest Point: What to Do if You Fall Behind

Use Day 19 ("bad mood version") as your default reset.
Focus only on Health + Mindset routines to restart.
Done > Perfect.

Week 4 — Align & Take Action

🚀 Now it’s time to work through the beliefs holding you back.

Day 22: Name Your Goalblocker

Ask: What belief might stop me from showing up this week?
Example: “I always quit” or “I’m not consistent.”

Day 23: Flip the Script

Write the opposite belief (ex: “I always restart” or “I show up imperfectly”).
Say it out loud.

Day 24: Make It Measurable

Choose 1 action to prove your new belief.
Ex: Track your habits, check in daily, send the email.

Day 25: Time Block It

Pick your most important action and block 30 mins for it.

Day 26: Progress Tracker

Use any blank page and create a grid or list.
Each day you take aligned action, check it off.

Day 27: Celebrate 1 Small Win

Reflect on one thing you followed through on.
Bonus: Share it with someone for accountability.

Day 28: Weekly Wrap-Up

Ask: What worked? What felt hard?
What would I do differently next week?

💪 Why this works: When your beliefs shift, your behavior naturally follows.

🎉 Final Rest Point: If You Got Stuck This Week…

Return to Day 22. Name the belief keeping you stuck.
Choose 1 tiny action that proves the opposite.
Remember: You’re not behind. You’re just between reps.
