Remember in my last post that I sometimes get so overwhelmed that I just shut out of everything?
Well...
I did that with this blog. I set up a schedule day by day, almost down to the minute and I put myself into a panic attack. I had to take a step back and see how I can make this work.
Writing a blog everyday was just too much for me. I felt like I wasn't able to relax unless everything on my daily to-do list was done. That stressed me out the most. So I think I worked out a system that is going to be best for me.
Blog once a week at minimum. If I choose the need to blog more, great, but there is no pressure there.
I felt that blogging everyday made me not want to write and then I would get defeated that I didn't write anything. But then that made me sad because I have all these ideas in my head that I want to write down but I just didn't have the mental space to do it.
So this week I am taking a lot off my plate so I have more time to get creative with it. I mastered my work schedule and now it's become so routine that I actually plan on adding more to my lists. It's my personal schedule that I struggle with.
I need consistency, especially on the weekends, or else I notice that everything I worked so hard for during the week, unravels. So I need to find my consistency on those two days.
I know that the weekends, you should unwind and relax to get ready for the work week ahead, but I think I need to set plans on the weekends to stay moving because I've noticed, through my habit tracker, I lack almost everything. I think it's because I give myself the excuse that I'm allowed to procrastinate and not do everything right then and there. But I think that's what I have to change in my mind.
Just because I have all day, doesn't mean I should do nothing all day and then cram it in at the last minute and be annoyed.
So we shall see in a week how I do!
Until next time,
Nicole Lynn
