How to make life a little better

(I’m looking for something prettier to name this so if u have ideas spill!!)

Stop trying to impress people you don’t even like

Stop caring about being judged by the most boring, lame human beings ever (there’s 8 billion people on earth)

It’s immature to keep hating on yourself or others. Like what’s the point? It’s just making u miserable

Always give kindness and love.

It’s the small choices and actions you take everyday that make huge differences

Try to get into the flow state more

Get a diary and write all ur girly nonsense in it

Stop wondering if you’re good enough for others and start wondering if they’re good enough for you

You shouldn’t assume someone doesn’t like you unless they’ve directly told you.

Learn to observe and not absorb

Remember you don’t need to accomplish something in one sitting- whether it’s learning the guitar, crocheting, let yourself take time.

Even if you think ur life is boring and there’s nothing exciting abt it: would u rather mope and sulk or get unreasonably happy about the small mini things?

Life is 20% what happens to you and 80% how you react to it.

Be your own best friend! Push yourself on, cheer for yourself, be there when you cry.

Consciousness if everything.

You may be more inclined to reach your goals if you know someone else is depending on them.

If you don’t want to dwell on things, have things that get ur mind of it. Be busy.

GLOW UP GUIDE FOR 2025⠀

READ: On average, it takes more than 2 months before a new behavior becomes automatic — 66 days to be exact. And considering that 2025 is precisely these many days away, why not start with our glow up plan already?

Physical Glow Up-

BODY

— 5-10K steps a day.

— 7-8 hours of sleep.

— workout everyday for 1 hr atleast- yoga/stretching/pilates/cardio. a workout may take one hour, but your mood will be boosted for the next 12 hours.

— posture training.

— sunlight exposure after waking up for at least 10 minutes.

NUTRITION

— 2-3 liters of water every day.

— limit your caffeine intake.

— avoid sugars as much as you can.

— high protein diet, pre and probiotics.

— more fruits and veggies (+ green smoothies if you like).

— no junk/processed food/trans fat.

— no eating after 8 pm.

SKINCARE

— be clear on your skin type (oily, dry, combination, sensitive).

— once you're clear, use these accordingly- cleanser, toner, targeted serum, eye cream, moisturizer, sunscreen (≥50 spf).

— keep your bedding clean as well.

— no picking of skin on your lips, cuticle etc.

— gua sha to help improve blood circulation and lessen toxins.

— cold therapy may take three to five minutes of being uncomfortable, but your energy levels will be boosted for the rest of the day.

— remove makeup before you go to bed.

BODY CARE

— shower every day.

— exfoliate 2x a week.

— use body lotion (shea butter/aloe vera gel/coconut oil).

HAIR CARE

— wash hair 2-3x a week

— oil your scalp 2x a week, at least 3 hours before shampoo.

— hair mask 1x per week.

— never brush wet hair.

— use silk pillow case.

HYGIENE

— brush your teeth 2x a day, clean tongue and the roof of the mouth daily.

— floss daily.

— cut your nails 1x a week, never remove the cuticles.

— glycolic acid under arm for odor and discoloration.

— never use soap on your coochie.

Mental Glow Up-

MINDSET

— set clear goals- define and breakdown your aspirations.

— start your mornings with positive affirmations.

— surround yourself with uplifting content and people.

— be shamelessly selfish to your career and mental health, remove anyone or anything that doesn't align with your priorities and wellbeing.

— boost your brain health by these 4 neuroscience tools:

difficult first: start your day with the most difficult task (cortisol and dopamine are high in the body meaning that your body/mind is primed to work).

rest your eyes: introduce a micro-pause after learning by resting/closing your eyes - will help retain information better.

tomorrow's worries: write tomorrow's to-do list before bed as it is proven to be effective in helping you fall asleep.

find time to play: engage in low-stake play. can be anything you find fun but where the outcome doesn't matter (induces neuroplasticity + reduces stress).

MIND

— meditation might take as low as ten minutes, but your focus will be improved for the rest of the day.

— no social media after waking up and at least an hour before bed.

— keep aside 1 hr of time to read daily! reading a new book may take five hours, but you will keep the knowledge forever.

— journaling, gratitude.

— digital detox once a week or for 12 hours.

— limit unnecessary screentime, unfollow or cut off people you don't want to see.

JOURNALING

— choose a regular time each day to journal, making it a part of your routine.

— find a quiet, comfortable place free from distractions. light a candle if you want.

— allow your thoughts to flow without censoring or editing.

— write about your feelings and emotions to understand them better. write about things you are thankful for to boost your mood. write about your short-term and long-term goals. identify what triggers certain emotions or reactions

— set a timer for 5-10 minutes and write continuously during that time.

— reflect on both positive experiences and challenges.

— make lists, journal your thoughts on these questions.

— journal at night to clear your mind before bedtime, because emotions and thoughts lose their power once we acknowledge them.

— a gratitude practice may take five minutes, but your mindset will be shifted for the rest of the day.

AFFIRMATIONS

— customise affirmations to your needs.

Personal Life-

WEEKLY TASKS

— initiate small changes: begin with small, manageable tasks such as making your bed or cleaning your room every sunday.

— celebrate your success: reward yourself when you achieve your goals or have a consistently productive week. consider treats like buying flowers for yourself or watching your favorite show.

DAILY WORK

— set achievable goals: establish realistic goals for the day, week, or month ahead.

— track your progress.

— organise your work space, declutter your shelves etc.

— embrace the power of lists: keep a list of tasks to be done and their deadlines. this way, you start each day with a clear plan. to make it visually appealing and motivating, consider using productivity apps like evernote, habit tracker, or notion.

PRODUCTIVITY TIPS

— wake up early.

— plan ahead everything, do scheduling. you can use:

google calendar / notion / tasks .

— if the task takes less than 2 minutes to finish, do it immediately.

— countdown rule, if you are procrastinating, count 1-2-3-4-5 and jump.

— start slow, don't rush and try to do everything at one time.

— follow a proper routine, use app locks based on screentime.

— pomodoro technique, 25 min work, and 5 min break.

— schedule longer break times as well e.g 30 min nap.

Internal Glow Up Tips

Physical Health You've heard it before, but it cannot be said enough. Exercise 3/4 times a week to release endorphins and help regulate your mood. Stretch regularly to improve mobility and flexibility so even when you age you body will remain fit and healthy. Eat your fruit and veg to ensure your body gets the nutrients it needs. Drink water every day, buy a cute water bottle to keep yourself motivated. Get eight hours of sleep to improve your immune system and concentration, I cannot express enough how crucial sleep is because while you sleep your whole body is busy healing and learning. Allow yourself to rest when you need it to try and avoid burnout. Keep on top of your personal hygiene (I will be posting a separate series on this)

Brain Health Eat foods that hep your brain such as oily fish, whole grains, berries, leafy greens. Your brain is the most important organ in your body so look after it! Practice concentration by meditation to improve your focus. There are loads of great apps for meditations such as headspace, or you could just find a YouTube video. Your time and focus is the most valuable thing you own but todays consumer-based society is destroying our concentration. Work to build it back up.

Attitude Trust me, don't surround yourself with toxic people. It is not selfish to cut off drama, you have to be your first priority. If you surround yourself with people who act badly you will act badly, your surroundings shape you as a person. Don't consume content that makes you feel bad. the TV you watch, the people you follow, the music you listen to, it all shapes your personality and mindset. Don't be afraid to block people, delete apps, follow other people, you control your intake, and your intake controls your output.

How to Build a Life That Matches Your Pinterest Board

by Soleau Club

We’ve all got that Pinterest board. You know the one: sun-drenched mornings in linen sheets, açaí bowls on marble countertops, matcha in hand, soft-glam makeup, glowing skin, matching workout sets, walking through life with that effortless rich girl aura.

But the question is... how do you actually live that life?

The answer: you don’t just manifest it—you build it. One soft step, one beautiful detail, one aligned decision at a time. Here's how I turned my "dream girl board" into my real life—and how you can too.

Step 1: Audit Your Life Like a Pinterest Algorithm

First things first: take a step back and ask yourself—does my current reality even remotely reflect the vision I’m saving to boards at 2am?

This is your aesthetic audit. Pull up your fave board (you know the one), and ask:

What vibes are consistent? (Light, luxury, wellness, minimal, bold, cozy?)

What’s the version of me who lives this life like?

What’s one thing I could add, shift, or release to get closer to that?

This isn’t about pressure—it’s about alignment. You’re simply noticing the gap between dream and real life so you can start closing it like a boss.

Step 2: Romanticize Your Reality, Daily

Pinterest girls don’t just drink coffee—they have a moment with it. They don’t go for a walk—they take a sun-soaked stroll in a matching set while listening to an empowering podcast.

So ask yourself: How can I turn the most ordinary moment into something sacred and cinematic?

Try:

Lighting a candle while doing your skincare routine (bonus: play Lana or SZA in the background)

Drinking your lemon water from a wine glass, because why not?

Wearing that silk robe—even if you’re just working from home

You don’t have to wait for the perfect life to show up. You create it, by turning the mundane into magic.

Step 3: Create Routines That Feel Like Your Board

Morning routines. Evening rituals. Soft girl Sundays. These are the glue of the Pinterest lifestyle—because it’s not just the aesthetics, it’s the energy.

Think:

A slow, phone-free morning with journaling, hot tea, and face mist

An evening wind-down with stretching, magnesium, and your favorite body oil

A “that girl” workout you actually enjoy—like hot girl Pilates or dance cardio in your living room

Design these rituals around how you want to feel. That’s the key to making it sustainable.

Step 4: Make Micro Upgrades

You don’t need to drop $10k on a full-life makeover. (Unless you can... then slay.) But most of the time? It’s about those tiny, luxe-feeling switches.

Try these low-effort upgrades:

Swap plastic containers for glass (your fridge will look straight-up chic)

Get matching hangers—trust me, it changes the vibe of your closet

Use linen spray on your pillow before bed (Pinterest girl core)

Add flowers—even grocery store ones—to your table, desk, or bathroom

It’s not about being rich, it’s about feeling rich in your space.

Step 5: Detox Your Digital Life

Let’s not forget the emotional clutter on your feed. You can’t build a dreamy life if your mind is flooded with chaos. It’s time to:

Unfollow people who drain your energy or make you spiral

Mute drama accounts, clickbait, or “that one friend” who only posts complaints

Curate your feed to match your vision—follow accounts that inspire, elevate, and align with your vibe

Your Pinterest life isn’t just IRL—it’s digital too.

Step 6: Ask Yourself This Every Morning:

“What would Pinterest Me do today?” Would she skip breakfast and doom scroll? Or would she make a green smoothie, put on SPF, and go for a soft walk?

Would she settle for chaos, or would she protect her peace like it’s vintage Chanel?

Let that question guide your choices until it becomes second nature. Eventually, you become her. Effortlessly.

Our Takeaway

Building a life that looks like your Pinterest board isn’t about perfection. It’s about alignment, intention, and beauty in the everyday. It’s about showing up for the version of you that already exists in your dreams—and giving her a real place to live.

So go ahead. Romanticize your life. Buy the flowers. Make the smoothie. Say no to chaos. Say yes to joy. That Pinterest girl is already you. You’re just waking her up. 🌷✨

Follow @soleauclub for more real wellness tips, self-care rituals, and lifestyle tips for when you just need to vibe—and thrive.

2025: #5 CONFIDENCE ISN'T GIVEN

You’re not born confident. Confidence is forged. It’s earned when you decide—and I mean decide—to stop caring about what people think. You want to know why you don’t feel confident? It’s because you’ve spent your whole life chasing validation. You want people to like you. You want people to approve of you. You’re scared someone might have something bad to say about you. But FOR REAL nobody cares as much as you think they do. They’re too busy worrying about their own STOP GIVING SHIT

..✒️So why are you holding yourself back? Why are you giving other people the power to control how you see yourself? Let me tell you something—if you keep waiting for someone to tell you you’re good enough, you’ll be waiting forever. Confidence starts the moment you stop asking for permission to be yourself. You’ve got to walk into every room like you own it, even if you feel like a fraud. You think everyone who looks confident actually is? Hell no. They’re just better at pretending. And guess what? The more you pretend, the more real it becomes.

HOW TO BUILD CONFIDENCE

Own Your Flaws Let’s get this straight—confidence isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being real. Stop trying to hide the parts of yourself you don’t like. Everyone has insecurities. Everyone has doubts. But the difference between confident people and insecure people? Confident people say, “Yeah, I’ve got flaws. So what?” They own it. They wear their imperfections like armor.You’ve got to stop being afraid of judgment. You think your flaws are holding you back, but the truth is, it’s your fear of them that’s holding you back. Confidence isn’t about eliminating insecurities cuz we allllll have ones it’s about walking into a room and saying, “Here I am, take it or leave it.”

Get Uncomfortable You know what kills confidence? Comfort zones. You’ve built this little bubble around yourself, and you’re too scared to step out of it. You avoid challenges. You avoid risks. And then you wonder why you don’t feel confident. Confidence grows when you do hard things. When you push yourself. When you fail and get back up. You’ve got to start chasing discomfort like your life depends on it—because it does.Start small if you have to, but start. Speak up in a meeting. Wear the outfit you’re scared people will judge. Say no when you mean no. Every time you push through fear, you prove to yourself that you’re stronger than you think. And that’s where confidence comes from—action, not thinking about it, not talking about it.

Stop Comparing Comparison is the thief of confidence. You’re scrolling through social media, looking at people who seem like they have it all together, and you’re sitting there feeling like trash. Let me tell you something—nobody’s posting their failures. Nobody’s showing you their breakdowns. Stop comparing your behind-the-scenes to someone else’s highlight reel.You don’t need to be like them. You don’t need to have what they have. What you need is to look in the mirror and realize you’re the damn prize. You’ve got your own path, your own strengths, your own story. Own it. Stop trying to fit into someone else’s mold.

Take Care of Yourself and Let’s be real .. If you don’t take care of yourself, you’re sending a message to the world—and to yourself—that you don’t value you. You want to feel confident? Start showing up for yourself. Eat like you care about your body. Move like you want to be strong. Dress like you give a damn. When you look good, you feel good. And when you feel good, you carry yourself differently. That’s not shallow—it’s self-respect.

Talk to Yourself Like You Matter You’re your own worst critic. You say things to yourself you’d never say to someone else. “I’m not good enough.” “I’m so stupid.” “I’ll never be as good as them.” Stop. Stop talking to yourself like you’re worthless. Start hyping yourself up like you’re your own biggest fan. Look in the mirror and say, “I’ve got this. I’m unstoppable. I’m the one they need to watch out for.” It feels weird at first, but fake it until it’s real.

CONFIDENCE IS A MINDSET

Confidence isn’t about never doubting yourself LET ME EXPLAIN .. It’s about showing up in spite of the doubt. It’s about walking into every situation and saying, “I might not have all the answers, but I belong here.”

Stop overthinking. Stop waiting for permission. Stop letting fear dictate your life. People will always have something to say—'That hairstyle doesn’t suit you,' 'Why are you wearing that?' Who cares? Their opinions don’t define you. You like it? That’s all that matters. Stop living for their approval and start living for yourself.You’ve got everything you need to be confident—you just have to decide to use it. So, stop sitting on the sidelines of your own life. Get up. Take action. Be bold. Be loud. Be unapologetically you.

the world doesn’t need another copy. It needs you. And if you’re too scared to show up as yourself, you’re robbing the world of something incredible. Confidence isn’t given—it’s taken. So, take it. !
