Seems simple enough, right? RIGHT! But, we don't do it! Why? Because we don't make the time for it. I don't think our intent is to book ourselves solid everyday, but sure enough it turns into our daily grind. My suggestion to you is to block out 30 minutes everyday to do more of what makes you happy. Start this ASAP. Find time in the day that works best for you. If you're an early bird, consider waking up 30 minutes earlier. Use your lunch break if you have a hour break. Or, if you're like me, squeeze it in after work. I want you to use this time to do whatever it is that makes you happy. For me, this entails a run with the sun beaming down on me, the birds singing, the trees swaying in the wind, and the feeling of my feet hitting the pavement. Pure bliss. Now, if after work is too chaotic for you, wait until your children are in bed (if you have children), or wait until you start your bedtime routine, and find your "me" time then. I have also been known to lose myself in a good book paired with a warm cup of Sleepytime tea. Zzzzz....
Do more! Why? For me, I feel it has helped me find a sense of balance in my life. Give it a go, and come back and let me know what you think! I'd love to hear! Life is what you make of it!
Thank you for this reminder! I always say I'm going to do this and another day goes by where I don't. I want to plan to start doing this earlier in the morning since by the end of the day it gets tough! Welcome back to the blogging world! It's great to see you again!
