Alright, let's get real for a minute. I'm spilling the beans on my very real attempt at 12 daily habits for success and happiness. And let me tell you, it's a journey, not a destination!
Look, I'm a mom, I run a business, and life is…well, it's a beautiful chaos. I used to think I had to be this super-achiever, nailing every single thing, every single day. But honestly? That's just not sustainable, especially now. So, I created this list of 12 things I try to do. Key word: try.
I want you to know, I don't hit all 12 every day. Sometimes, I'm lucky if I get a few done! But here's the thing: even a little bit makes a huge difference. I've seen it in my own life. These habits? They've helped me launch my physical planner, they keep me sane, and they make me happier.
So, what are these magical habits? Let me break it down:
- Workout/Stretching: I aim for some kind of movement, even if it's just a walk.
- Reading Personal Development: Kindle app is my lifeline right now, especially during those early morning feedings.
- Goal Review: I keep my annual goals front and center. It helps me stay focused.
- Gratitude Journaling: Three things I'm grateful for, every single day.
- Affirmations: Positive self-talk is powerful, I promise.
- Writing/Journaling: Even a little bit of writing helps me process and connect.
- Hydration: I pre-fill my water bottles, otherwise, it's a lost cause.
- Top Priority Work: I dedicate time to my most important business tasks.
- Vitamins: Gotta take 'em!
- Quiet Time/Meditation: Even a few deep breaths make a difference.
- Green Smoothies: Sneaking in those veggies!
- Devotionals: It keeps me grounded.
I'm sharing these habits with you because I want you to know that you're not alone in the struggle. We're all just trying to figure it out, one day at a time. And honestly, even the small wins add up.
