If habits are things that we are already doing, then let’s do them to our best. On a podcast I recently listened to, I heard this idea about habits and getting things done. The conversation continued with many twists and turns. Though the main takeaway for me was this idea of doing our habits to our 100%. I am someone who loves their hobbies, habits, and routines. Hobbies fuel my passion to live my best. Habits allow me to get things done efficiently. Routines provide me the opportunity to repeat hobbies and routines. My day-to-day can be stressful at times. More than stressful is can downright be chaotic. As though where a tornado meets a volcano, and everything is blown and torn to pieces. Which is why it is so important for me to have my hobbies, habits, and routines. Setting myself up and keeping myself structured, allows me to meet the next moment in any day with all that I’ve got. I personally find a direct correlation between taking care of me and taking care of others. When I’m there for me, I can be there for you. This is not confined to one specific domain. This bleeds across all spectrums and all activities. When I say hobbies, habits, and routines are vital to allowing me to live my best… I believe it to be 100% true and accurate.
For many, this time of year can be filled with many emotions. For some, it is a time of rest and relaxation. For others, it could be hectic and chaotic. You should know, you are not alone.
Together, we grow stronger, go farther, and go faster. Cheers and happy holidays!
