Hiiii guysss!! I’m very much still in the New Year spirit lolol I just wanted to make a point to say that routines DO NOT need to be perfect! Some weeks we’ll follow them to a tee and some weeks will most definitely throw us curve balls!! This video is for the people who just feel a little lost in the sauce with their goals! It’s sooo easy to set goals but it’s so hard to figure out how we can execute them! I’m proud of all the work you’re putting in this year! Rooting for you ALWAYS 🫶🏾 see y’all on Sunday!!
You said something on a recent video about now being afraid of being uncomfortable so I did the unthinkable and set my alarm for 630am to get my workout in before taking my kids to school. I have a pretty ridiculous schedule as a full time night shift worker and a single mom of four so this is definitely eating into my already limited sleep about an hour but it has been a game changer in my day to day. I really didn’t think I could do it but I did and I’m loving it.
This video has given me so much energy and motivation! As someone who deals with the constant noise in my head from ADHD, I really need routines. I appreciate that you not only explained why routines are important but also walked us through your routine and how it makes you feel on a deep level. One of the reasons we don't stick to routines is because of how they make us feel. We're emotional beings, after all. Thank you for sharing your insights!
Girl, I need this bc I have no discipline, no structure for myself…just straight thuggin it on top of dealing with now diagnosed mental health issues 😭. And now that I quit my part time job and WANT to do my own thing for work and for the sake of becoming mentally well again I fr need to practice these steps 👌🏽.
You just made me realize how I procrastinate by projecting my insecurities on two different things talking myself out of doing something that I wanted to do
It's the end of September 2023, and I am just now finally taking time to figure out and focus on myself, and who God is calling me to be after a shift in my personal life... I already have a routine but your tips just added more sprinkles on what to focus on and add when building a routine. Thank You so much! This was very insightful, helpful, and different than all other routine-building videos.
I really needed this. The transition from high school to college has been so difficult for me. Trying to navigate a whole new life and not being as successful as I was before is so discouraging. My course load has been so daunting and just flat out overwhelming. This really gave me that reassurance that even though it is hard, I can overcome it and be the best version of myself. Thank you so much for your inspiring words and motivation!!!
I wake up at 5am since last year and it always pisses me off when people are like "Why do you wake up that early?", I wake up early because I want to start the day working on my self, with affirmations, gratitude, meditation... I like starting my day with good energies and it's awesome and make my day much better.
I agree and will definitely start waking up early to start the day off with focusing on me. My best friend does it and I admire her for doing it. And we always tell each, “No one knows you but you.” This video help explains it a lot more and doing it step by step.
I wake up between 5:30 -6am everyday and like you I want to dedicate the first hour to giving back to myself but I'm not the only person in my house that walked up that early so most days it is difficult to do my morning routine effectively.
Same i was telling me partner that i plan on waking up earlier (around 5) and he seemed so confused about it. But i feel like having that time in the morning to myself makes me feel better and will help me try and be happier overall :)
Hello! I don’t know if you’ll ever see this but I’m going through a rough patch in my life struggling with my mental health. Apart of my problem is I start and stop routines and have been too anxious to just try others. Thank you so much for making this video and being transparent. Discovering your channel changed my life. ❤️❤️
This is so inspiring thanks for sharing your story. I started my path to reinventing myself a year ago, I'm now living healthier, confident, stronger, making 6 figures, having leisure to enjoy family &friends. I feel happier and living my life for myself. This is to encourage someone "you can start anytime to have a reset it's worth it! I'm striving to continue growing cus it's a journey✅✅✅
@@mariana23273 Change your mindset, read self-help books, expand knowledge, budget and don't spend on impulse, save, take your finances seriously, eat healthy, exercise your body, meditate; the list goes on... I hope it is useful to you.
@@juliet800 ¿l learnt to be frugal, minimal on spending, saving and paying myself first through Investing, made Plans, growing passive income, Read a lot of books on finance, followed my plan consistently.:)
one of the things i struggle with is ROUTINE even though i knoooowwww it would help my brain tremendously by getting rid of all the extra thoughts and choices that need to be made during the day. i'm similar to you with adhd and a lot of people that have the type of mind that jumps from task to task have said that making it a muscle memory to do these small things that could be a lifestyle could open up a lot of space because you'll be doing it without realizing while worrying about what you really want to worry about. this year, i'm so serious about hammering down my priorities!! thanks for these advices c:
This video helped me TREMENDOUSLY! I love the suggestion of experimenting with different schedules and being honest with which one is the best for optimizing your day. I have been getting discouraged lately because I have been implementing new systems + habits in my life. The reminder that this is progress, not perfection was the sign of relief I needed right now. Thank you so so much for this content!
Sooo proud of you!! Implementing new systems isn’t easy especially when our old ones have become so engrained in our everyday! I hope you know that you’re doing a great job and I’m rooting for you 🤗🫶🏾
I already have a pretty solid routine - now working on a cleaning routine and on planning my meals better but still loved this video. Its really soothing listening to you somehow 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Wowww thank you so much. And I love that for you!! I need to get on top of a good strong cleaning schedule too! I started one this year, but I kind of fell off with it, so I need to re-strategize it for sure! 🤗🤗
Girl, this video was right on time for me! I was literally in my feelings about how unorganized I am and how I needed a schedule to get things done. I easily get overwhelmed when I see my laundry list of tasks before me and I clam up, get frustrated and never get anything done. This video was like breath of fresh air. Thank you and I am taking these steps to build a schedule to works for me😊.
Just came across your channel, meant this is for me. Everything you have said is me. I cry because, I'm like why can't I stick to my goals. It's going to be April and new goals have been set. I was journaling, listening or speaking affirmations, going to get Gym, working out at home when no gym day all with taking care of Family. So many Ideas in starting my small business, writing every idea. Pray for me Sisters. I can do this. I will come to this video for reminder. Consistency MUST be by new best friend. I have to keep her by my side at all times. I work Monday - Friday. So really need to set this routine. I'm getting too Young for this 😂. Bless Sisters, wishing all of us the Best. Thank you.
The way you connected putting time into your dreams the way you would if you were in grad school absolutely blew my mind!!! I’ve been so burnt out since graduating college and this completely shifted my mindset!!!
Hi Janet, I’m a new subscriber! I recently started watching your channel. I LOVE how real and authentic you speak when referencing everything that goes into building a better you! I was in a really bad car accident and had surgery. After months of therapy, I’m finally able to start building the new me! Thank you for your encouragement throughout your videos!! It really makes a difference with our regular self, let alone when life throws curve balls. Happy New Year! May you be blessed in more ways than you can count ❤️
I’m soooo sorry about your accident! But I’m so happy that you’re doing better! Thank you so much for watching in your kind words I really appreciate it! Happy new year and I hope this year is everything for you! ♥️
Thank you for much for this! Helping people become better versions of ourselves is no less important than what doctors do. So please keep being fabulous and spread the positivity!
I keep trying to find motivation to return to my old routine, I feel behind because of depression and just overall a really hard struggle with my mental health. I’m hoping to get back into it, and try to get back to feeling good again :)
Wow not only did you explain this so well. But you opened my eyes to see how it all can be managed in a way that works best for people who have adhd. Being a single mother, I get so distracted and procrastinate a lot. And by seeing your example and hearing your way of doing things, makes me really feel like there’s a way to actually get my life in order. Thank you so much! Super excited to try this🙏💖
Hey Janet, I WANT TO SEE MORE OF THESE VIDEOS! This video has given me so much energy and motivation! As someone who deals with the constant noise in my head from ADHD, I really need routines. I appreciate that you not only explained why routines are important but also walked us through your routine and how it makes you feel on a deep level. One of the reasons we don't stick to routines is because of how they make us feel. We're emotional beings, after all. Thank you for sharing your insights!
I totally agree with you it's one of those things where you create a routine and habits. It's not going to work for everyone and you figure out what works as you go along I love it!! You worked so hard at this!
I’ve been coming across a lot of motivational content lately, but I’m happy to come across this one. I’m a grad student who wants to be more active, start a business, and become an influencer while facing adversity; it isn't easy, but I realized last year that I needed to implement a routine. My motivation has been down for a long time, and that has affected my discipline and consistency, but after watching your video, I’m about to journal all my thoughts and work on it. Thank you!
Hi Janet, I don’t usually comment but I wanted to tell you that I loved loved loved the med school analogy. I actually had to pause the video for a minute to let that sink in. I never thought of that… but I will try to treat all my pursuits as if they were a medical degree. I also appreciated the point on how we know ourselves best… being a teen and loving my parents so much makes me nervous about doing things they don’t do: like waking up at 4 or 5😂, but I am definitely going to try to add that to my routine and see the results.
You're awesome. I agree with everything you said. I am up at 4:00 am and I like the idea of comparing two different schedules to see what works. One routine may have been right for who you were and not who you're becoming.
I need more of you in my life! Just subscribed. I've been slacking on my evening and morning routine and it's been effecting my days/life pretty negatively but I can't seem to get to bed earlier and keep slacking on my goals. Thank you for all your information, will be applying it this evening and starting off my weekend on a better foot.
I did this in college. And followed my written routine out to a T! It HELPED ! Now that I’ve graduated and am now a teacher , my life is in shambles. But I have to come back to WRITING and doing !
Haha so I am a med student watching this. I totally agree, no matter what you are working for, it’s so important to do what works for you, regardless of what someone else thinks. Personally I am currently struggling with burnout and would love to establish a new routine. Thanks so much for the tips!☺️
I normally don’t comment or like but this video your energy your mindset and attitude towards this beautiful creation of a video has inspired me 1000%keep it up I love it.
Thank you. Your video randomly came in my feed. And I was hesitant because I see these kinds of videos all the time and it gives overwhelming task. But yours actually motivated me to be accountable. I will treat my RU-vid channel like my double masters back to back program. I was a beast then. I can be a beast with my creativity as well. Thank you queen.
I'm new to your channel but I love your content. Thank you for making this video. I caught covid 2 weeks before Xmas last year and then had long covid for 8 weeks after that, so I've gone into 2023 feeling flat and unable to feel the excitement and enthusiasm I normally do. I've written my goals out, made my vision board but I'm not taking any action. I feel frustrated that like you said I audio have allot going on in my head and get overwhelmed so easily then I freeze and procrastinate. My to do list is getting longer, my time is not being used productively at all. Yesterday all I did was the grocery shop and I wanted to do so much more. Cleaning and organising tasks for myself just never seem to get done. I have been needing help, looking for a routine, a system to help me.
I’ve been looking at countless video’s regarding routines and your video came across my feed. Everything you said in this video just clicks and makes so much sense instead of just seeing people’s routines. I’ve been waking up at 5am for almost a year and pouring into myself first but I have been wanting to add to my routine working out etc so seeing your structure of multiple schedules and trying them just thank you for this advice since I felt stuck and didn’t know how to start to progress forward 🫶🏻
Love!! I watch & read a lot of self-improvement content and your advice is realer and smarter because you break down a process and use what worked for you as an example rather than as the advice itself. So many people say waking up early was a game changer for them but you explain why exactly it works for you and break down how to find what would work for anyone. As for me, I recently discovered scheduling as a tool baseline lol. I've thought a lot about spacial organization and previously not invested in time management. I've been doing major trail and error in all areas of life. I'll go two weeks waking up early to stretch and eat breakfast and then one day sleep in & get out the door in 10 minutes just to notice any differences.
I felt so stuck and this morning your video came to me as I was getting ready for work. I’ve been telling myself I need a routine and I keep letting myself down. I heard you when you said expectations not goals. And that really clicked for me. Thank you!
This video is amazing! The opening monologue expressed exactly how I feel every single year. Simple concepts and they are easy to follow. I love it, you are amazing, thank you sooooo much.
This helped me a lot !! I’m struggling a lot with really bad mental health problems and I haven’t been to middle school for a year. I’m in heavy trauma therapy and years have been rough for me ever since a six year old girl. Now that I’m thirteen things have been even worse but I’m tired of suffering so much. This video helped me make my own little schedule for the day and even making a little ‘goals’ calendar for this year 🥹🌸🌷💕💕 !!! I want to thank you for helping so many people ☺️🍓💕
Been trying to find a routine video and out of the literal DOZENS I've watched, this has been the only sustainable one! P.s. thank you for not doing the bs "make your green drink every morning" thing.
I love this video! This is my 2nd time watching as the 1st time I wasn’t able to watch it in it’s entirety so I saved it to my watch later …AND IM GLAD I DID! And babyyy the ending of the video when u said ppl aren’t as understanding and don’t deem entrepreneurship/content creation as important as careers and jobs you actually clock in. Ppl would be upset with me if I didn’t take their calls or if I said I had to call them back. 1 thing I stopped is telling ppl “oh I’m just posting pictures/videos “ when they asked what I’m doing, I started saying IM WORKING because content creation is apart of my work. My boyfriend would get mad as well if I was out of bed and he couldn’t “wake up to me”. I miss getting up at 5, I felt better..I felt like I was able to have time to myself and like I got more done.
Watching this with only 2 months remaining of the year has made me realise how serious I am about change and getting my life more organized. To be intentional about it is key!! Thank you so much for being real ❤
Love how you showed both scheduling and told how you figured out which work best for you! I am working on a new schedule for myself this was very encouraging
Girl same Netflix and RU-vid!!! Shorts specifically I have had to monitor the content I input on a daily basis because it will be a mesh of distractions and actual learning making me have to buckle down and decide what’s next? So I’m very thankful you have made this video and I am in the process of starting my life in October/ November…. literally the end of the year😅
Haven’t watched the whole vid yet but when you were talking about your body goals in the beginning and then showed you working out I SCREAMED because that’s already exactly what I want to look like
As a productive girly in the making, this was exactly what I needed. Your video has yielded many notes for myself and quotes from yourself ( wish I could attach a photo)! You have given great advice and are truly insightful. I resonated with every word. Thank you! This is added to my watch list, now my motivational video!
7:53 I’m so glad you mentioned step 4 because I would always get discouraged after like a couple tries at the same routine lol and that’s a behavioral issue lololol
This video is everything I needed to hear. I am transitioning into a full day job which changes up my current routine but I am looking forward to create a new routine to balance things.
All I have to say is THANK YOU! Thank you for the realness, the transparency and amazing advice and tips! I took actual notes and plan to implicate. Your video couldn't have came across at the most perfect time. I am definitely inspired and grateful.
just want you to know this video 100% inspired me and was EXACTLY. what i needed. i’ve been wanting to start focusing on myself more and setting goals for myself, but i struggle with lacking motivation, and this video gave me just that. so thank you for your content, and you even made me laugh at certain points 😂 definitely subscribing, and keeping it up with your channel, it’s great!
wow ur vid was so helpfull and usefull, rn im struggling in everything end felt like im being left behind, like time went so fast that i cant even see my self as i should, so thank u for doing these types of content, keep work on ur self and remember to do it for u not for the others, u dont own them nothin.
all your videos inspire me but this one really hit i made my 2023 goals made a everyday routine and was really productive today so thank you for making me this productive healthy person that i am right now
This is the best and most honest and through video that is honestly eye opening. Being in a constant cycle of needing to make a big change and finding a routine but not knowing where to start has been .... long. I feel like it's been going on so long and this video is exactly what I needed to hear not only the words but the way you got to the point and it made so much sense. Amazing
Wow, wow this video is sooo relatable! Your personality is so magnetic, fun, and real. I appreciate your honesty and candor. The reminder of to trust and encourage myself, for myself, and over all haters or "familiars" (wrll meaning or not). This video is so needed, helpful, and validating!!! 😍🙌🔥💞 Totally warmed my heart and is suped motivating. Sending so much love, prayers, and blessings your way ❤️🔥🫶🤝 Thank you, beloved sister
I appreciate your honesty on this topic. I relate with you. Life is absolute chaos without a daily routine and I set up a routine for my daily schedule; however, the routine does fall off in time. When setting a routine, I feel that I am not good enough and my routine is too inconvenient for others around me. I realize setting a structured routine builds confidence and stability for my daily sanity. Keep up the great work that you are doing. Thank you again. ❤🙏🏻
This video held answers I’ve been seeking! I took notes on how to create a routine! Thank you and I am leaning into progress- not perfection!! Thank you for this wisdom !
Hey- this is my first time watching your channel and I love your energy and your ambition- it's so uplifting and encouraging. As someone with ADHD (inattentive, diagnosed) that affects many little things in my day to day- I am drowninggg in the sauce and this video is just the boost I needed to open my planner and write out my ideal daily schedule! Looking forward to more videos girl! Thank you.
I knew most of my problems stemmed from not having a good routine and idk why I struggled to come up with one 😡😡 but OMG thank you!! You broke it down real good 😩 definitely subscribing and recommending you to friends ! God bless!
I’m watching this video as I’m making my meal preps ! I’m excited for this journey . I also just bought a hair dye and some cute work out clothes . I’m glad I found this video I’m going to try this 😊
I feel like I’m watching a female version of myself!!! You are so motivational and I’m so glad that I ran across this video. New sub definitely!!!!! Best wishes in everything that you’re working toward❤❤❤❤❤
I relate with this video on so many levels, knowing that somebody out there has similar issues as I do is somewhat encouraging. I'd like to publicly put out things I wanna work on that way I'll feel uncountable. 1. I stopped uploading videos on RU-vid over a year ago because of fear of been different or failing to thrive. 2. I'm in medical school and I almost never try anything out and use medical school as an excuse 3. I've always wanted to start working out, I signed up to a gym last December I only showed up for 5 days straight never went back again 😂. Every single day I found an excuse not to go. I'm gonna listen to this video a second time and take notes this time.
Ik for a fact waking up earlier helps , I used to wake up so late feeling so rushed throughout the day cuz I had so much I wanted to do but couldn’t fit it in through the day but now that I have extended my days by waking up earlier it’s easier and calmer
