Time to roundup July 2021

It’s already the end of the month and that means it’s a great time to roundup your memories and document them before too much time passes. One of the greatest tricks we play on ourselves is thinking we will remember. We don't need to write it down, right? Does that even work for the grocery store? Don’t let yourself fall into that trap. Memories are important!

So take a few minutes and let these prompts help you record the things that happened in your life over the past month.

Here it is in written list form in case you would rather copy and paste this for your own use.

Take time to document the month of July and fill in the following:

  • Holidays, celebrations, special occasions,

  • What you watched - shows, movies, plays, performances, etc.

  • What you listened to - music, podcasts, audiobooks, etc.

  • Books you read and things you learned

  • News - personal, local, national, international

  • Other ideas - weather events, favorite finds, foods you ate, memes & humor

You can do daily, weekly, or monthly recaps - it’s totally up to you. I like to make sure I don’t go any longer than a month without recording these details or it just gets too hard to remember. I’ve been doing monthly roundups each month since January of 2006. It’s my most useful memory-keeping tool!

And here’s a fun little GIF-ready template to use for Instagram stories if you want to play along. I’ll be sharing mine in my Instagram stories today and will also save it to my highlights. If you need tips for how to use this template, check out this previous post.
