Congrats!
You have excellent content and an even, calm tone. If I’m attacking something I don’t like, I enjoy having your motivation in my headphones.! Thanks!

This was very encouraging. I had a slow start today for sure. Will be trying out these tips.

[Christy]

I had to do this yesterday. I had very low motivation, but I had to have a little talk with myself telling myself you need to do this because all the things will start to build up and it makes for more to do tomorrow. I love all of your videos. So happy I found you. Congratulations on 10, 000 subscribers!! 👏👏👏

Thanks for your tips! I love your white kitchen cabinets 🤍 ! Mine are brown wood, one day I hope to deep clean, prime, and paint them white. ❤

Thank you so much for this--I think it's working, as I'm now about to START a project I've been procrastinating on!! Counting on ambition kicking in, like you said, because it's cold and gloomy and all we want to do is snuggle up with a warm cup and a book📖☕

[aflack]

Thanks for the motivation, Angela. It was needed today.

[maureenmccrackin]

Where did you get that white shower curtain?

Another problem is I am OCD so once I start I can't really figure out what to do.

I knew I never should’ve read that funny meme…”Namastay in bed all day.” Lol. 😂😂

Sometimes it’s ok tho to do a B or C job on tough or busy days. For perfectionists anyways, every single time doesn’t have to be an A plus. Also just committing to 5 minutes only. Like just start and see how far you can go. That helps me get so much more done than I thought I ever would. And then also just do the “have tos” first. That way if I don’t perk back up, the have to stuff still gets done. Rarely tho do I ever lose momentum once I start. About the only rare times I had to skip things were when I was really sick like feverish and having all that flu like stuff going on. Yaaas. Breaks. Many when you have to. Lol. Great tips.

There were a few times when I just left the house first for awhile. Got myself a frappe and looked at nature. Jammed out in my car or whatever. Lol. Just pushed it all aside for a little while. Carefree. The idea of “no duties” just for a little while. Just let myself be more like an irresponsible teenager for awhile. It just got me out of that never ending, overwhelmed, black hole hamster wheel perspective. Some days it was like I had to just exit the premises in order to not be so heavily preoccupied with what all “needed doing.” Some days it just had to be out of sight, out of mind for awhile. Some days I felt like the whole house was gonna just eat me alive. Trapped. Lol. Like run Forrest run. (But I didn’t want to take a shower and all that either, which is a thing that would prevent me from leaving so I found a way to leave without having to and without actually being in public). Lol. Not sure a lot of folks talk about that aspect tho. It can be like a catch 22. Bcuz your mind and body just isn’t in a place to want to do either. I used to struggle also with needing a good “reason” to leave the house. And I would also just be like well what good would that do anyways? I reckon tho may as well go find out Bcuz if I stayed home I’d be getting nothing done anyways. And I’d just be sitting there feeling more and more guilt and stress about it as well. Getting more and more down on myself. Oh the mental gymnastics I had about something as simple as giving myself a real break. 🤯🤯 But once I did that, then I could go back and tackle things far better afterwards…once I took care of my mind. But since hopping on the minimalist train, rarely do I ever have to leave home to just catch a break or stay sane. And whipping the house back into shape isn’t nearly as hard anymore.
