Hello!
If you’ve been tracking my blog posts, you may be aware that Sundays are about stating accomplishments or rites of passage…
So?
I want to share a huge accomplishment that makes all things possible:
Getting out of bed.
Even right after my psychotic break in 2006, I refused to stay in bed. Yes. I had one day when I allowed myself to go BACK to bed after I got up
BUT BUT BUT
I immediately got out to walk several miles. Yup. I was super freaked out.
And nope!!
I don’t stay in bed no matter how tempting it can be. Dudes!! I gotta get shit down that’s not gonna do itself.
Another layer was added when I stayed in that South Central Los Angeles transitional housing:
MAKING MY BED
See… They talked about if you make your bed? You start your day with an accomplishment under your belt. Awesome to begin your morning with a winning tack record. Totally sets up the rest of the day for success.
Since that idea was explained to me? I haven’t missed a day of making my bed except on laundry days. Why yes… It’s unsettling to see my bed be a big mess.
EXCEPT
It’s good to realize how something so small can have such a big impact just like how getting out of bed allows me to make progress on everything happening in life.
Very cool!!
As always: Have a glamorous day for fun!!
