How I did it: I stopped living with my parents and no longer had their emotional support, i had to deal with this and realised that now my life could be what i made of it as oppose to it being dictated and decided for me. This took me ages to get used to. Now i can slowly start sorting my life out and the expectations that i meet will be my own, nobody can now put pressure on me except me.. Instead of being lazy i must now work on making the most of my… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Thought about what I need to do to allow myself to get there. I used a word document and wrote down the years and it was easier to think long term then about where I would be next year. I feel like I have more focus now and have saved this to my desktop to give me motivation whenever I am lacking it. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Split everything into manageable tasks, started by organising my closet and taking out stuff that I do not want any more and then putting the rest away in neat piles, then hanging the nicer stuff up. Then I put my shoes away on the shoe rack in my closet and put some away in boxes because I just do not need that many out and some are more suitable for colder weather (even though I live in lovely&nbs… Read how I did it…
How I did it: At first when I learnt about my loss, in the most horrible way (over a social networking site) I actually thought it was a sick joke. I was laughing as I rang up my best friends mum and asked to speak to her. When she told me, my friend had passed away in a accident I went numb and I just did not believe it.I cried for ages, became depressed, hardly left the house. I did not know my friends family very well and I did not want to intrude a… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I got rid of everything that reminded me of him, even clothes that I had worn to dates with him and make up and a perfume that he liked on me etc... gave all this to my friends who were more then happy to take it :) and I had a lot more room! Concentrated on more important stuff like uni and seeing my mates, I abstained from bitching about him as I guess I did a lot of that on here! I deleted any tracks that reminded me of him and just go… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I've been reflecting on what has been upsetting me, I then thought about the things I could change and how I could change them.. The things I couldn't I decided to let them go and stop wasting time and energy thinking about them. Whatever's happened in the past has been for a reason, mistakes were made but they shaped me and made me who I am today and I know that I need to improve the way I am sometimes, but … Read how I did it…
How I did it: I felt so weird and emotional today, I sat down and put pen to paper and it all came pouring out, I felt as if my life was not being lived to the full. I put down all my hopes and aspirations for the future in this letter to myself. I rambled but it made me feel so much better. I actually wrote nearly 2 pages. It made me feel better. It was like therapy. I stuck the letter to the lid of this box I have full o… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I was never really a heavy smoker but I could get through a pack a day if I was stressed. I had tried to quit before but it came at a bad time, I broke up with my bf and was really stressed so it didn't happen...One day I just had enough, I went out in the rain for a cig and just felt so stupid trying to light up while it was so windy (here in the UK there's a smoking ban in indoor public places) to cut a long story sh… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I had been considering doing this for a while, Facebook was way 2 distracting everyday and I just found it was not for me. I'm a private person in some respects so why would I want people to know my business. It just doesn't make sense to me. there are just better and more productive things I can be doing rather then being on there talking to people I haven't spoken to in ages.... NEWSFLASH there's … Read how I did it…
How I did it: Providing I get at least 6 hours of nice sleep, I am a morning person.. Working an odd job 6 days a week has helped me become this way, now I like to wake up earlier and not waste my day... even if I am not up to much that day I'll still wake up and there is a lot to do if you look hard enough, I am planning to start using my mornings to do more uni work when my shifts change at work, hopefully I'll be able to keep this up and make the mo… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I put myself out there :) was carefree, if it happened it happened... I wasn't really looking for anyone but then suddenly it happened.. I hope it works out. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I started with my main inbox and deleted any emails I no longer needed, marked junk as spam and put anything important into named folders... It took ages! Especially since I have 3 email boxes... I will now clean my inbox for each account as I go, rather then leaving it this long again... Read how I did it…
How I did it: At time I could not sleep as I would have things on my mind... I started to write these things down during the day and before sleeping. This helped me get them off my mind.I also started exercising and physically wearing myself out and this also helped me sleep better.I don't work weekends so its always tempting to stay up very late and lie in the next day at a silly hour.. I stopped doing this... instead I started waking up at … Read how I did it…

How I did it: Started by getting everything out and chucking it onto the bed... so if I didn't finish I would have to sleep somewhere else! Tried on most of the clothes.. filled up binbags of clothes that did not fit and will take them to a charity shop after asking friends and family if they would like anything..Then consulted Gok Wans 'Work your Wardrobe' :) he gives some good advice on what to keep and what to chuck away... obviously … Read how I did it…
How I did it: One day i started getting annoyed with all the meaningless notifications and emails and events that i wouldnt really attend.. So I deactivated and its the best thing I have ever done!Now i actually make more of an effort to talk to my mates.. instead of 'poking' them. We now regulary meet up instead of messaging each other and I am happy that im no longer getting farmville requests and friend requests off people I dont know from a country… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Basically the problem was my room, my closet was overflowing with clothes, 2 many shoes in there, i wasnt wearing half of the stuff because i either.. didn't know i had it! or couldnt find it.. I actually made a shoe rack.. im sooo proud of myself lol.. i brought loads of hangers and just hung stuff up that needed to be... i chucked a lot of clothes away that just didnt look cool anymore or didnt fit..

How I did it: I basically brought a 1.5 litre bottle and took it everywhere with me :) i now have formed the habit of drinking lots more water... at first u will need the loo more! lol but once your body is properly hydrated u will naturally feel thirsty and want to drink more water... doing this has actually helped me to stop mindless snacking.
