New Year, New Habits: What We're Carrying Forward into 2024

December 29, 2023
As the year draws to a close, we're taking a moment to unwind, reflect, and set the stage for the exciting possibilities that the upcoming year holds. Here are some habits we've found particularly beneficial and plan to nurture as we step into the new year:

Scheduled Moments for Growth: We've embraced a routine of designating specific days each month. One Friday a month is reserved for personal development—a time to recharge and invest in ourselves. Similarly, dedicating another day solely to Lume Creative allows us to focus, innovate, learn, and strategize for the growth of our business.


Mindful Breaks for Clarity and Creativity: Recognizing the importance of mental rejuvenation, we've made a habit of planning short breaks to clear our minds, reignite our energy, and maintain motivation. This practice keeps us sharp, ensuring we bring our best to every task.


Cultivating a Creative Haven: Creating a workspace that's both decluttered and cozy has become a priority. A serene and inviting environment fosters creativity and cultivates positive vibes, sparking inspiration in our daily work.

Embracing Variety in Workspaces: While our home office is our primary base, we've learned that a change in scenery can invigorate our thoughts. Planning occasional workdays at a co-working space or a nearby coffee shop injects freshness into our routine, fuelling our creativity.


Bite-Sized Task Management: Breaking down our weekly goals into manageable daily tasks has been a game-changer. This approach not only keeps stress levels in check but also makes our to-do lists feel less overwhelming and more achievable.




What Habits Are You Adopting for the New Year? What new habits are you planning to incorporate in 2024? Are there any tried-and-true practices from 2023 that you're carrying forward?

As we bid farewell to this year and welcome the next, let's step into 2024 with positivity, growth, and a commitment to nurturing habits that propel us toward success!  🌟✨

A beautiful website is great—but if it’s not converting visitors into actual inquiries or bookings, what’s the point?

In this blog, we’re giving you a behind-the-scenes look at why it was time for a change, how we approached our redesign, and what the new Lume site says about who we are now.
