Organised & Productive
I have been internally frustrated and uncomfortable recently, and I think it’s my body coming to terms with the reduction of productivity in my life haha! It’s like I’m thirsty and hungry for it, so I definitely need to work it back into my life!
I remember the good ol’ days when:
I used to have a specific getting ready playlist - a careful selection of songs of specific lengths that I would use when showering, brushing my teeth and getting dressed.
I’d be 3 blog posts ahead, so if a week was hectic I’d have back ups!
Planning my week in diary - physical diary I might add. I still LOVE writing stuff down, and it also means less time on technology.
Planning exercise 3 weeks at a time*
*YES 3 weeks! I gave each day of exercise a theme and made playlists for each day - adding three weeks worth of videos. For example:
Monday = Dance with Kukuwa Fitness
Tuesday = Cardio with Millionaire Hoy
Thursday = Kickboxing with Keaira Lashae
Friday = Strength / stretching with Fitness Blender
So I would pick 3 videos for each lasting about 30 mins each and workout to them.
Now I found that the days have gotten away from me.
Sometimes it’s good to add fuel to the motivation fire and I think Patricia Bright’s video from Friday is fuel for me. Funnily enough watching it reminded me of one other thing I used to do which was to plan my outfits in advance - whether for the whole week or 3 days at a time. Recently though I must say it has been a teeeeeeny bit difficult as I have been through a wardrobe detox with Anna Gold (she’s so good people!!) and we found most of my wardrobe is filled with statement pieces rather than everyday wear 😂😂😂. Nevertheless, this is a practice I can definitely go back to with what I have.
