U EVER THINK ABOUT BOYS IN SUITS AND HOW NICE IT MAKES THEIR SHOULDERS LOOK AND HOW THE SLEEVES MAKE THEIR HANDS LOOK ALL BIG AND HOW THE COLLAR MAKES THEIR JAWLINE LOOK SO SHARP AND HOW THE JACKET FITS THEM TIGHT AT THE WAIST B O Y S
1. push yourself to get up before the rest of the world - start with 7am, then 6am, then 5:30am. go to the nearest hill with a big coat and a scarf and watch the sun rise. 2. push yourself to fall asleep earlier - start with 11pm, then 10pm, then 9pm. wake up in the morning feeling re-energized and comfortable. 3. erase processed food from your diet. start with no lollies, chips, biscuits, then erase pasta, rice, cereal, then bread. use the rule that if a child couldn’t identify what was in it, you don’t eat it. 4. get into the habit of cooking yourself a beautiful breakfast. fry tomatoes and mushrooms in real butter and garlic, fry an egg, slice up a fresh avocado and squirt way too much lemon on it. sit and eat it and do nothing else. 5. stretch. start by reaching for the sky as hard as you can, then trying to touch your toes. roll your head. stretch your fingers. stretch everything. 6. buy a 1L water bottle. start with pushing yourself to drink the whole thing in a day, then try drinking it twice. 7. buy a beautiful diary and a beautiful black pen. write down everything you do, including dinner dates, appointments, assignments, coffees, what you need to do that day. no detail is too small. 8. strip your bed of your sheets and empty your underwear draw into the washing machine. put a massive scoop of scented fabric softener in there and wash. make your bed in full. 9. organise your room. fold all your clothes (and bag what you don’t want), clean your mirror, your laptop, vacuum the floor. light a beautiful candle. 10. have a luxurious shower with your favourite music playing. wash your hair, scrub your body, brush your teeth. lather your whole body in moisturiser, get familiar with the part between your toes, your inner thighs, the back of your neck. 11. push yourself to go for a walk. take your headphones, go to the beach and walk. smile at strangers walking the other way and be surprised how many smile back. bring your dog and observe the dog’s behaviour. realise you can learn from your dog. 12. message old friends with personal jokes. reminisce. suggest a catch up soon, even if you don’t follow through. push yourself to follow through. 14. think long and hard about what interests you. crime? sex? boarding school? long-forgotten romance etiquette? find a book about it and read it. there is a book about literally everything. 15. become the person you would ideally fall in love with. let cars merge into your lane when driving. pay double for parking tickets and leave a second one in the machine. stick your tongue out at babies. compliment people on their cute clothes. challenge yourself to not ridicule anyone for a whole day. then two. then a week. walk with a straight posture. look people in the eye. ask people about their story. talk to acquaintances so they become friends. 16. lie in the sunshine. daydream about the life you would lead if failure wasn’t a thing. open your eyes. take small steps to make it happen for you.

Quotes for girls on @weheartit.com - http://whrt.it/10ZhiiY
This year I encourage you to choose to live. It sounds so obvious and simple but we tend to get so caught up in life that we often forget to actually live. I’ve made a few posts in the past about how I decided to make actually living life a priority in 2022 and I can’t thank myself enough for doing it. I’ve been having the time of my life and have such great memories I get to hold onto to. I have these memories because I decided to be intentional with my time and my life. When I did, I experienced things I couldn’t have even dreamt up if I tried. I want to share some of those memories with you to show you how fun life can really be when you make yourself and your life a priority.
- A friend and I decided to go out when I was visiting my hometown, even though our normal way to spend girl time was to sit by the fire with a glass of wine and talk. That night we ended up going downtown. We ended up accidentally going to a concert of a very famous singer, standing close enough where I made eye contact with the person several times. I still don’t even know how we got into that concert lol. I got hit on by his lead guitarist without even knowing he was the lead guitarist for this singer. After their set we hung out with the band for a while before heading home for the night.
- A few months ago, I decided to take an impromptu New York trip with a close friend. We were only there overnight but we had the legit best time of our lives. We went to an upscale bar in the city and met a foreign real estate mogul, went to a lounge with a bar at the top (we didn’t know that at the time) and somehow got let into an VIP exclusive party in the bar at the top while we were exploring the building. We danced our butts off with people we didn’t know. It felt like a movie. We ended up leaving there and were on our way to another spot when we ran into a beautiful couple (they were genuinely so good looking), we got to talking with them and they turned out to be an uber successful couple. The guy was a very well known architect and the woman owned a successful art gallery in the city. After talking to them for a little, they gave us their VIP bands to get into a super exclusive party going on that night. We also all followed each other on Instagram so I got a networking opportunity out of it too. Side note: this was before I hated Instagram and deleted it off my phone.
- Living life doesn’t always have to look like going out on the town. This past year I said yes to things I used to do as a kid but never think to do anymore, as well as new things and experiences. An example of this was going roller skating after not having gone for years because I thought it was “kid-ish”. I went with a friend after hours and it was truly so much fun. It was so freeing to be a kid again and let my inner child run free and play, or I guess in this instance let my inner child roll free and play. It was honestly so healing. If I had said no because of my preconceived notion, I would have never experienced that. Since then I’ve gone roller skating more and have so much fun every time.
Embarking on this journey has sparked a passion in me. These past few years I just went through the motions on autopilot. I wasn’t intentional with my time or my life. When I chose to end that cycle I felt myself truly come alive. I really encourage you to evaluate your life and see if you’re running on autopilot. If you are, break the cycle this year. It doesn’t have to be in expensive or lavish ways. What matters is breaking the cycle how you can and choosing to live your life with intention. I promise you, you will look back a year later with beautiful memories and gratitude for making the decision to live intentionally.
