Restart Tartt!

I’ve decided to hit the “Restart” button of my life and try to readdress some promises I’ve made to myself. My goal is to challenge myself to follow through on the commitments that I was too afraid to make and to basically form a better outlook on my life-- and ultimately myself. Hopefully my journey to restarting aspects of my life will encourage others to make necessary or interesting changes in their lives. Welcome and with everything said, I’ve officially pressed the "Restart" Button.

So....

I do not understand this...

I arrive on time for my hair appointment...my hairstylist starts on someone else.

Bet, he would have something to say if I come in late...

I hate this hypocrisy.

Its already time to find another stylist.

This is too unprofessional.

Loc’d and Loved

I finally did it! On June 8th, I started my loc journey. I don’t really know what motivated me, but I just took a leap of faith. I think I was nervous about the ugly stage, but I realize my journey is dedicated to self-love. If I have an ugly stage, I’m just going to embrace and love my ugly-ass. 

I will say that I faced my first test of many to come when I had concluded my weekend and had to go to work.

 I could barely sleep that Sunday night –tossing and turning wondering what my coworkers and clients will say. There was definitely no hiding! To my surprise, my coworkers and clients were very supportive. My boss, who always comments every time I change my hair, reacted in a cool way and say “Always surprising us with something different, I like!” With the support of my family and my work family, I definitely feel as though I can endure all the obstacles and stages I’ll face. 

With this amazing support, I also thought I would share my loc journey on tumblr. Now that I am loc’d it seems that time is going by really slow. I think documenting my days on tumblr will help me. So, hello loc’d tumblr community. I’m excited to share my journey with you.

This brought me so much peace.

I’m in terrible need of a creative day. I’m connecting with one of my high school best friends and we are going to just write/draw. Hopefully this gets me out of my slump...

I woke up like this?

So, I decided to realistic change my 4:30am goal to 5:00am. I’m going to start a bit slow and then gradually move to waking up at 4:30am. I have my amazon spot routine to: 1. Turn the volume to 6, 2. Say “Good Morning” with an interesting fact, 3. Turn on my bedroom lights with the smart plug I have, 4. play a Demi Lovato song. I also have my phone’s alarm go off at the same time....but that was the first thing I “Dismissed”. I challenged myself not to talk in the morning, so I did not say “Alexa Stop” instead, I laid in my bed for a good minute listening to the “Let It Go” by Demi Lovato. Then I got out of bed and went into the bathroom, washed my face to wake up and hurried to put on some workout clothes. I think I need to get some shorts. Putting on tight workout pants is not ideal for an early morning routine. Anyway, I did a bit of sit ups and torso twist. I didn’t want to do too much because I plan to go to the gym after work. I forgot I planned to meet my friends for dinner, so we’ll see how it all turns out. I have to make sure I bring my treatment group planner and get that done while I’m at work. I don’t think I will have time to do it at home. 

Anyway, fingers crossed for a good and productive day!

Challenge Accepted

I have the personal challenge of waking up at 4:30am in the morning. I want to try and get a good work out, make some breakfast, and actually feel refreshed when I go into work. I want to start my personal growth and I really think this can be it. Along with challenging myself to get up in the morning, I also want to begin bullet journaling, writing on my blog daily, reading, eating healthy, saving money...it’s a lot, but I don’t want to waste my hours, minutes, seconds! It may sound like I just had a near-death experience, but something about evaluating my life has got me thinking...what more do I want from it. What would I have to bring to a relationship, whether its friendship or romantic. I want to be worth it. I’ll post how the week goes.

The real glow up is when you stop waiting to turn into some perfect version of yourself and consciously enjoy being who you are in the present🌼
