  • can we just take a second? like really just sit and take a second for ourselves. i've had a few wobbles these last few weeks. my university work seems to keep piling up. my to-do lists are getting longer. the time i have for myself seems to be dramatically decreasing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
but, these things are only having a negative affect on me because that's what i'm allowing them to have. i have more than enough time to get everything i need done and have time for myself still. but i keep letting my brain wander off to the negatives before the positives. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
so, the positives are i'm extremely lucky to have the privilege to study. i'm lucky that my student finance covers me so i don't have to work too. i'm lucky that i have a bedroom to tidy. the list goes on and on. when i think of these things and show gratitude for them i feel a little lighter all of a sudden. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
so today, i urge you to look at whatever is getting you down in life + look at it from a positive point of view.  have a lovely saturday 🍂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • I saw this little nugget of knowledge as I was scrolling through my Pinterest and I just had to share it on here because it called me out. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
this quite well and truly called me out and made me think about my own behaviours and my own reactions to things. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I can get really mardy if I want to and my energy levels swoop so low that they hit bedrock. and when I’m in these moods, my attitude can be vile. but this is my choice. there might’ve been a situation that triggered this attitude but ultimately - I made the decision to act this way. there are lots of different options I could take. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
the same goes for effort. I used to be quite a minimal effort kinda gal. I’d do what I needed to do and not much more. but minimal effort often brings in mediocre results. I found this with my blog posts, I used to churn out anything that made sense (even if it didn’t really) and publish it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
now I’ll spend a few hours working on one post making sure that it’s up to my own standards so that when it goes live I know I put my best into it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
sometimes we do have to look at our behaviours and question them. being self-reflective is so important on this journey and even if it’s hard to ask these questions of come to these conclusions, it is necessary. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
