This year I have really been focusing on exchanging habits so I can create time to do the things I love and want to pursue. I think it is easy to get trapped in a cycle of being comfortable. Watching netflix, not eating right, not being disciplined. I do believe there is a time and place to rest and enjoy yourself with your favorite show and a nice treat, but it should not be an everyday ritual. So here are some of the habit swaps that I have been making in my life :
Netflix : Painting, doodling, creating art instead of consuming it mindlessly.
Junk Food : Lots of fruit and nourishing my body so I glow and feel good.
Laziness : Writing down my goals and getting one small task done.
Not exercising : Going for a walk in nature. Taking pictures of beautiful things. Moving softly… it doesn’t have to be intense.
Scrolling on social media : Prayer, meditation, focusing on my personal vision from God instead of what I see other people doing.
Sleeping in : Wake up and start stretching & doing yoga.
Using my phone during meals : Study the Bible. Eat mindfully.
Random Youtube videos : Opt for something educational or follow a DIY project.
Procrastination : Pushing myself to get even just a small piece of a project done because that is better than nothing.
I’ve noticed while doing this, I have had so much more time, creativity, and energy to spend cultivating and living my life doing the things I love most. My wellbeing has also improved due to the fact I feel like I am progressing and making the most of my time here on earth. Xoxo
