Resolutions time: April
April monthly resolution: dance for 20-30 minutes each day
Now, I want to move on to developing healthy habits. Thanks to the impromptu dance lesson I received last Saturday, I'm excited to pick up dancing just as a way to shake off stress and learn to do better hip isolations - also, it's a great all-body workout..
(I started by getting up at 7 AM this morning - unprecedented for a Monday - and danced for 20 minutes. The fatigue/pain did lessen as I danced on)
Supplementary stuff for goal (so, other things I'll gain along the way):
Compile a playlist on spotify for dancing, expanding my music collection
I think I want to do it in the mornings, in that it would help me wake up (I hope).
If I work up a sweat, it would give me incentive to shower more often, something I'm consistently having difficulty continuously doing
April weekly resolutions:
week 1: Build a weekly schedule template and stick to it for this one week as a primer (just to see what I may need to tweak, not to abandon it entirely after one week) - it's never too late to make my time management skills even better.
week 2: Learn more about filing taxes - I'm may be doing my own taxes soon (oh, god!) and I don't want to go in blind.
week 3: Learn more about investments - I'm almost an adult, and I need to invest like one.
week 4: Learn more about what it means to save for a retirement fund - I'm almost an adult, and I've been told I should have already started saving to be a retired one.
Alright, April: come at me!
i'm not going to worry any more. i'm just going to believe that it's all going to be fine.
April Resolutions
I think I can safely say I failed all of my March microresolutions, which is pretty disappointing but this March was MADNESS (shitty joke alert) and shit happens, so I'll get over it.
Learning from my mistakes and looking forward optimistically, I'm only setting myself one resolution this month:
1) Cut down my junk food intake in general, and stop eating refined carbohydrates everyday.
The goal isn't as quantifiable as usual, but I'm planning to stagger it, decreasing my intake as the month progresses. Around Christmas I went through a really rough time, and probably felt more depressed than I'd ever felt in my entire life. I fell into a funk and started comfort eating. I'm really unhappy to say that this led into a habit and has continued up until now. Even though I'm happy with my life right now, I still eat crap food on a daily basis and that's not right at all.
As of tomorrow, the cycle is ending. Not just for my physical health, but also for my well-being; I look and feel worse than ever, completely unhealthy and sad at my state. I realise that it's a very long process and it'll take more than a month, but hopefully this is the start of something I'll continue for a very long time. I want to feel confident in myself and my body again.
The past few months have made me realise that you have to treat your body well in order to feel good about yourself. Your body really is a temple; it does a hell of a lot for you, so the least you can do is not try and make its job harder.
