I try to set myself a goal for every day to slowly ‘unfuck’ my life. they are like really small goals but baby steps are fine and definitely something to be proud of!
I started this challenge for myself and I actually had fun and was much happier every time after finishing one of the ‘tasks’ so I thought I’d share it with you :)
if one day you don’t feel comfortable doing it/are stressed/can’t make it for any other reason - then don’t. it doesn’t mean you failed. you can always start again!
it’d be so cool if you’d write a post about how you liked the challenge. heck, you might write a post every day to tell us all how you feel! maybe there are some things on this list you wanna try to integrate in your daily grind.
if you post anything about it please tag the post with my url so I can read it :)
make your bed right after you wake up
drink 2 cups of water after you wake up
prepare your breakfast/lunch or dinner for the next day
pick up everything in your room that’s lying on the floor and put it where it belongs
use body lotion after your shower. take your time until your whole body feels soft and smooth. and if your body lotions smells of coconut - be proud to be the worlds largest walking coconut!
pick your outfit for the next day so you don’t have to do it in the morning
practice single-tasking. eat, watch an episode of a tv show, listen to music. focus on what you’re doing.
bring all the dishes to the kitchen (be extra proud of yourself if you actually wash them)
go on a walk - don’t take your mobile with you. look around you. this is the earth we’re living on. and it’s so absurd that we exist. laugh at your existence. it’s a comical, wonderful thing.
ban 5 to 10 items of clothing from your dresser. sell them, donate them, start a diy project using them, give them to a friend …
eat an orange (unless your allergic of course). eat slowly, maybe even close your eyes while eating, focus on the smell and the taste
make a to-do list for the year. even write down things that seem unrealistic. it’s okay to dream. don’t forget to write down small things like sleeping in a tent or to go strawberry picking. know that you could still do all of these things in the next year and the year after that
vacuum your room. I know it’s annoying but you’ll feel good for doing ti afterwards
eat something you’ve never eating before
clean out your desk or at least one drawer. if you find something weird or funny and get distracted and don’t finish this task, don’t be mad at yourself. take a picture of whatever you found and post it.
go to bed early and take some time to reflect on the day. if it’s been a bad day try to find peace in the thought that tomorrow will be better
call someone you haven’t talked to in a while. if you’re scared you could also text them (or send them a nice anonymous ask if they’re on tumblr)
stay offline. do it for the day, for a few hours, until 4 pm - you choose!
change something in your room. it doesn’t have to be a big thing, maybe you’ll just put up a picture. be proud for putting up that damn picture!
donate some of your old stuff
be proud of yourself for everything you’ve done in the past few days!!
prepare as much as possible for the next day (pack your bag, pick an outfit, prepare some food)
get rid of something. throw away that one thing you wanted to throw away for ages. today is the day!
say no. I mean only if you want to. if someone offers you a donut and you want it then please don’t say no.
let go. of whatever - a goal, a thing, a person, a memory
write an email to your future self (futureme.org)
try a new recipe. send me some of whatever you created in the kitchen
make a list with things that cheer you up when you’re feeling down. put that list somewhere you can always see it. now when you’re sad you might not remember a lot of things that could make you feel better - look at your list when it’s time
choose to have a good day. you finished the challenge, surely that’s something to be happy about! you go, you! xx
