Get Up And Out

  Hey guys! Hope you are all doing well. I love this quote in the above pic - I wrote it out the other night, and it really gets me pumped to be productive and conquer the day! I tried to draw it in a book but it didn't really turn out as one lol oops. The squiggly lines were supposed to be words on the other page I think.  In other news, unfortunately, this is going to be the final instalment of habit of the week posts for the foreseeable future. I am starting back up at school soon, and I won't have time to keep up two posts per week. On that note, starting in September, my post schedule will be every second Sunday . Not as much as I would like, however, hopefully that means the posts will be even better!! I want my content to be good, so I am trying to give myself that much more time to get it done. Anyways. I'm going to do a review of last week's habit, and then talk about this week's. So let's get into it! :) Review - early wakeup Okay soooo I won't lie...

  Good morning! Hope everyone is doing well. I am back with my fourth instalment of habit of the week! Honestly, these habits are so good to do and I enjoy doing this series so much. I have always loved self-improvement (I’ve bought so many self-improvement books over the years it’s not even funny lol) and so a series in which I do it is so much fun, and definitely helps to keep me accountable. I hope it has some value for you as well, whether that is through discovering new options for habits, or whether you actually try them along with me!! If you do, please let me know! That would be so cool. Anyways, I’ll first discuss last week’s habit (morning reading) and then move on to this week’s habit (early wakeup)! Last Week’s Habit: Morning Reading I absolutely loved this habit. Reading in the morning is such a great way to start the day, especially given that one of my August goals is reading daily. I just finished the book All the Ever Afters (SO good, would definitely recommend), ...

 Good afternoon wonderful people! Self-care is such an important concept that is slowly becoming more normalized and promoted in the social media world, and I love it. I think it’s such a vital part of feeling your best self, but with the emphasis on productivity our society seems to enjoy, it can kind of get lost or deemed unimportant on the to-do list. And I’m guilty of this too, but because self-care is something I enjoy (as it should be) over the past few years I’ve gotten a lot more into it.  I think it’s also important to recognize that self-care isn’t always super aesthetic and fun things. It’s sometimes about getting real with yourself. Doing what needs to be done, no matter how difficult, and no matter how much you don’t want to do it.  Doing that homework or writing that essay simply because it needs to get done. Making your bed simply because it makes you feel more put together. Going for that run simply because you want to be healthy.  Doing something eve...

Good afternoon all!! Hope you are doing well! I am back with another instalment of my habit of the week series. I’ll start off with a review of last week’s habit (get up and go) and then get into this week’s (morning reading)!! The ‘get up and go’ habit actually worked really well. I quite enjoyed it to be honest - getting out of bed first thing, or at least within a few minutes, was a really good way to start the morning. Having breakfast and then getting into the day means I get into it so much earlier! It makes me feel so much more productive. Especially if (and I’ve been trying to do this more) I’ve planned out my day the night before!  However...I still succumbed every now and then to the phone/social media black hole, and a couple days this week I was on for an hour or so before getting up :( SO. That brings me to this week’s habit. Morning reading. I did this on Sunday I believe it was...and oh my goodness it was the most relaxing and enjoyable way to start the morning. Inst...

Good evening and happy Sunday! I hope you had an amazing day! :) Today, I wanted to discuss my summer morning routine. Now, I won’t lie - I love the idea of doing an intentional routine where I plan out what I want to do every morning and get into that habit. And I’m working on that. But I’ve kind of fallen into an accidental routine that I actually really like haha. So I thought I’d share it here! I’m also going to add a few things that I want to add in this month hopefully, we shall see how that goes! Hopefully it will help someone, and at the very least, have it to look back on next summer or when I’m starting a new routine in the fall. So...here it is! :) — 7am - 7:30am: wake up — This one kind of shifts depending on what time I went to bed - I like to get between 8-8 and half hours of sleep every night, so like I said, it really depends. But I like getting up early - sleeping in just makes me feel like I’ve wasted the day! Know what I mean?  — 7am - 7:45am: chilling and scrol...
