Plan for the day – why wait?

Hi everyone! Welcome to the blog on a very important day………………………………………………….the first day of the rest of your life! 🤪 wait! Don’t run away, I’ll be serious I swear! 🤣 You see people say why wait till the new year to start your goals, so I thought: why wait until Spring to do some Spring cleaning? 🤔 My bedroom is an absolute mess and it it dawned on me that it’s important to be invested in your own life to the point of taking care of your surroundings, even if your space already feels cosy, it’s time for a change and I’m here for it!

I watch all this content from my favourite creators, why can’t I be there for me the way I show up to them? That’s right, I can! Now don’t get me wrong, I do things for me. I take care of my body, mind and relationships, it’s just my bedroom thats fallen down the wayside. Every time I see someone updating their space I think: when was the last time I did that? My room reflects my previous self, I love it but I don’t want it to be messy when I don’t feel messy inside. I’m not perfect but I’m trying to better myself and I want my surroundings to reflect that!

I feel so good when even just have a tidy bedside cabinet so how good would it feel to have a fully tidied bedroom?? 🤯🤣 I’ve been there before with a clean room, I’m not THAT bad but yeah, it’s not in a good look. I need to get rid of things for a number of reasons, to make space, to be minimal (which is the dream for me!) and to not rely on physical things that at the end of the day aren’t important so today (yes finally I’m gonna say it), I’m going to tidy my room 🎉👏. I used to collect a lot of different things when I was little like Enid Blyton books (I have over 500 and I don’t need them, they just take up shelf space now) and Beano magazines (I’d say I have over 1000, likely more as theyre all packed into a big Dennis the menace red painted wooden box 🤣 why do I do this to myself?

I won’t get it done in one day, I live with chronic pain, we gotta be realistic here, but I’m trying to show up for myself in different ways and this is one of them. It’s something so simple so I kind of feel silly putting it out there but it’s so easy to let things run away and put them on the back burner when you’re attempting to use your energy wisely and it’s so easy to forget these things that are the real wise decisions. It’s good to do things for us! How are you expected to show up for others or set a good example when you’re not caring for you? And I fall victim to saying these things and not actually putting them into action. It gets to the end of each day and I’m lying in bed seeing what I should have done and forever designating the chore to another day, well no more.

I’m not a changed person but I’ve noticed that in the last year I’ve really grown in how I cope with things and the way I think through stuff compared to how I used to. I’m not trying to be someone else, I want to be a better version of me and daily steps and altered habits are the way forward so that is where I’ll go! Now, I’ll get off my soap box 😅🤣. I’m just done with waiting around, in 2025 I started getting stuff done and I want for 2026 to follow in that years footsteps and hit the ball out of the park ⚾️.

It can be a nuisance to be an intensely self aware person, anxiety inducing but I’m a work in progress like everyone I suppose. How are you with showing up for yourself? Do you have any tips or different ways of viewing life and self love? I’d love to hear it 💌.

So that is the long story of what I’m up to today! 🤣 What are you going to do or what did you do (depending on what time of day you are reading this!).

One day I will share my room tour, it used to be a running joke that I kept promising it and have never shared one and now you know why! 🤭 Right, I’ve gotta stop putting it off. To my room I go! 🫡 I hope you are able to do something for you today, you deserve it, even if it seems arduous, the result will be worth it! Have a good weekend and I’ll see you around 😉 Take care, stay safe and buh-bye ✨️💗.
