13 essential daily habits i implement to level up and improve myself

number 1: meditation— at least 5 minutes per day

number 2: prayer— morning, afternoon, and night

number 3: going outside— inhaling stale inside air < outside air

number 4: not sitting for more than an hour at a time

number 5: being consistent on this blog (this helps with motivation and is my online journal)

number 6: being active for at least 45 minutes daily— whether it’s a strenuous workout or a hot girl walk

number 7: swapping 30 minutes of a tv show or listening to music with a podcast, self-development video, or reading a book

number 8: positive self-talk / mirror work whenever i walk past a mirror

number 9: falling asleep to affirmations from youtube

number 10: spending less time on my phone— allowing myself 1-2 hours a day on social media and the internet (i used to spend ALL day on my phone)

number 11: drinking at least 60oz of water

number 12: parenting myself (for example: if i’m getting carried away with being on my phone and i have to run errands, i make myself to get off my phone and to walk out the door)

number 13: dedicating an hour in the morning after waking up and an hour in the evening before going to bed for self-care and organization. NO PHONE, TV, FRIENDS, etc.

a reminder that it doesn’t have to be a new year to make changes.

this is to starting today, right now, when you see this post.

get up and clean your room, don’t live in a dirty space and expect a clean life.

start a book, nobody wants to talk to someone who is illiterate. (and if you already read, next time you go to the book store before buying that one book you really want to read. add a classic and a nonfiction as well so you can become more knowledgeable)

EXERCISE. no more excuses. no more being lazy. you need to move your body. you can complain about wanting your dream body all you want but you need to put in that work to obtain it, you don’t just wake up with abs babe. get in the gym, you need to be moving your body MINIMUM of 30 minutes to an hour daily. I personally love pilates, dancing, running, and when i’m in the gym i do light weight lifting for my lower half 🎀

You are what you eat. I know that this is the hardest part for a lot of us, i have had a lot of issues overcoming this one the most but it is a must. Even if you’re working out consistently you will not reach your goals without a good diet as well. You need veggies & fruits!!! I am going to try to work on a specialized diet and post about it which will include fasting as well. So, if anyone wants to go on that journey with me go ahead and give me a follow to keep up <3

STUDY. this goes along with the reading but if you’re a college girl like me or even if you’re still in high school what are you doing if you’re just letting those assignments pile up. Get ahead, work harder than your peers. You gain nothing by doing nothing and degrees don’t come easy girl.

God is always first priority. None of the above matter if your mental is wack! Find peace with yourself and become close friends with God. After all, He is the one person we can be sure won’t talk about you behind your back. Read a verse a day at least and make sure you understand what you’re reading, reflect on it after.
