Accomplished today: ?

* at least 8 hours sleep

* no aperitifs, no alcohol

* mindful eating

* respected calorie goal

* 20' do-nothing meditation

* daily self-love affirmations

* chapter 7 of "As a Man Thinketh" : Serenity

* part 1 "Love is letting go of Fear" : Preparation for personal transformation

* working through first 2 chapters of "Codependent No More: How to Stop Controlling Others and Start Caring for Yourself" by Melody Beattie 

* internet research on OCD/ADHD/procrastination + adult child of domestic violence + binaural beats + neurotransmitters (serontonin, dopanimine) + limited beliefs  

* a lot of cleaning and housework 

 

Main progress today: actually solved my procrastination issue in one fell swoop. Just decided I was either going to waste time researching on the internet on how to overcome my procrastination problem or I could just go and do the actual frigging thing itself that has to be done on my to-do list. So I just went ahead and did what needed to be done in the first place (instead of spending the same time and effort researching on how to overcome procrastination, lol). There's only so many hours in the day, and my stuff's gotta get done. ?

Inspiring! I'm working on slimming down too. Isn't it strange/funny how decluttering and weight loss go hand in hand?

Thank you @mandyjw.

Yes, it's all about purging, lol.

 

To be honest, all the decluttering is probably boosting the weight loss with all this running around I'm doing, it's a win-win haha. 

Good luck on your own slimming goals. ?
