I don’t know how.

Someone recently asked me why it is that I’m so driven and determined to succeed when it comes to my work but I don’t put even a fraction of the effort into doing something for myself.

Well, being unemployed definitely allows for more time for myself. ;) 11 months ago

Im pretty close to making this a habit. I need to make sure I am planning my week properly so I can have this time without feeling too bad about it. 15 months ago

tonight im going to clean the loungeroom ready for tuesday relaxing 15 months ago

next me time is on Tuesday afternoon. I will turn off my phone, if its cold, I will watch a movie. If its nice I will lay in the park and read. 15 months ago

Yesterday I did a lot but I suppose what I did for myself was: in the morning I wasted time watching a movie. I went and got a wax and in the afternoon I straightened my hair. All these things were just for me. I’m still finding this goal really hard. I think because a) I can’t stop checking my phone all the time and b) My house is a crazy mess so I find it a bit depressing 15 months ago

Just booked in a complete wax for tomorrow at 1pm – In the morning I’ll do some cleaning, budget, grocery shopping then get a wax then in the afternoon time to myself – I will straighten my hair and paint my nails and maybe do a face mask. 15 months ago

My husband is going away today at 1pm and wont be home till tomorrow morning, so I have the house to myself.

1. I need to clean as much as I CAN
2. I need to eat a healthy dinner and shop for healthy food
3. I need to take some time to myself – watch a girly movie and paint my nails and relax 15 months ago

I left work early and went to a cafe on the way home, had a coffee, had a cupcake and read my book for an hour 16 months ago

I called Selinda to tell her I needed the day to myself on the day i was going to see her – I will see her the night before 16 months ago

I’m having a hard time finding this time to myself. Friends want to see me and John can’t get his shit together so I don’t know when I have the house to myself or the car to myself!! grrrrr!!! 16 months ago

But I locked myself out of the house so my friend is picking me up and I’ll hang out at her house 16 months ago

I schedualed time to myself yesterday but I got caught up in cleaning so i didnt do it – I still ahve a few more days so I will see where I can slot it in 16 months ago

I had a great day yesterday – I did a hair treatment and ate cheese while watching comedy then had a nap :) It was fantastic! I need to keep this up 16 months ago

I’ve decided to dig out some of the pamper treatments I have been hoarding in the bathroom – foot scrubs / hair treatments / face masks etc. and I will do one of these tomorrow! And if I feel like it, I might take a book to Liar Liar (cafe) and read with a coffee 16 months ago

I need some time every week with peace and with myself – doing something for myself. I can create this time pretty easily I think but what do I do in that time? I’m a bit lost on how to spend time with myself. I’ve booked in Wednesday afternoon this week to be by myself 16 months ago
