Time to reflect on June’s memories

As June ends, it is an excellent time to reflect on the month's memories. I began the practice of monthly roundups on my first blog in 2006 and have continued to do so ever since. Creating a quick summary of the month has been my most helpful memory-keeping tool, and it has made a significant difference in how I view my everyday life.

Here are some of the benefits of creating monthly roundups:

  • It helps you to remember the good things that happened in the month.

  • It allows you to identify areas where you can improve.

  • It helps you to stay motivated and focused.

  • It can be a fun and creative way to express yourself.

If you are not already creating monthly roundups, please give it a try. It is a simple and effective way to improve your memory, boost your productivity, and appreciate the good things in your life.

 
 

This year, I’m using a more visual approach for the prompts and I will turn them into a reel on my Instagram feed as well. If you prefer your prompts in a list form, I will be including them at the bottom of the post.

Let’s get started!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Here’s a list of the prompts I use each month. Feel free to pick and choose the ones that you find most useful.

  • Holidays, celebrations, special occasions, and big events from the month

  • Individual and/or family updates

  • Entertainment, media, and learning

  • News and current events: local, national, international, and personal interest

  • Weather, nature, and local scenery

  • Foods you ate, cooking, and restaurants

  • Travels, adventures, play, hobbies, and favorite finds

What to do with your roundup? Compile all the details and record them in a:

  • journal

  • blog post

  • social media post

  • photo collage

  • scrapbook page

Remember that roundups are even better when you include photos!
