be addicted to real dopamine
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
be in the present and notice those little things you never saw before, but that have always been there
experience new exciting things that bring you joy
love people, listen to them and create meaningful connections
make art and don’t label it as “good” or “bad,” just let your soul be free
stop scrolling on social media and start turning pages of an interesting book
do mindfulness meditation and feel your body and mind calming down
move your body, no matter how as long as you’re enjoying
listen to music that matches the moment you’re in
eat nourishing food, feel your stomach full without discomfort
get a good night of sleep and feel yourself ready for another day

How to Build Self Discipline
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Cultivating self-discipline is the way towards personal growth and achieving long-term goals. To me, it’s really all about making choices that honor your well-being and identity.
Understand that self-discipline is about self love and respect
It’s not about punishment or deprivation, but rather caring for yourself enough to make choices that align with your long-term well-being and goals.
You’re showing yourself the respect you deserve by honoring and committing to changes you want to make.
It’s all about recognizing your worth and having the motivation and courage to pursue what’s really best for you, even when it requires a lot of effort and decision-making.
Frame your identity in a way that includes discipline
How we act directly ties to our identities and how we believe we are. If you believe you’re a successful individual, you’ll live a life framed by confidence and determination. If you believe you’re someone who is lazy and unmotivated, you’ll struggle to find the drive to pursue your goals and aspirations.
Gaining discipline is all about acting as the person you believe you are and moving through life in a way that’s consistent with your determined identity. The key here is to try to imagine who you are at your highest self in a disciplined state of mind.
To start this, ask yourself these questions and slowly arrange your life in a way so there’s no distance between who you are now and your highest self:
What does your day look like
What do you eat
What do you wear
What does your week look like
What does your work day look like
What hobbies do you have
What’s your morning and night routine
Who are you surrounded by
What do you say yes and no to
Have systems in your life
I recently wrote a post about habits and mentioned the idea of systems versus goals. Here, I want to delve a bit deeper into that concept within the context of self-discipline.
To me, another way to truly live a disciplined life is to establish starting systems, something that will propel you past hurdles and reduce the friction that accompanies change.
Let’s say you want to improve your eating habits and cultivate discipline in consuming less sugar while incorporating more whole foods into your diet. You could begin by implementing a system of prepping healthy snacks or meals in advance at the start of each week, or however you see fit. By having these snacks readily available, you eliminate the need for decision-making, making it easier to adhere to your goal.
Anything that serves as a reminder or facilitates consistent action toward your desired outcome is a valuable system in your life.
Be okay with not doing something and embrace the mindset of small wins
This may seem paradoxical in the context of developing self-discipline, but being okay with not doing something is crucial. There are times in life when we need tough love and motivation, but there are also moments when compassion is the driving force that propels us forward.
When you don’t follow through with something, whether it’s going for a run or preparing a healthy dinner, it’s important to be okay with it. You don’t need to shame yourself or feel guilty for not taking action because that will only reinforce negative thought patterns, making it harder to create the change you desire.
Consider this: if you miss a planned run and spiral into self-criticism, you’re more likely to avoid running altogether. However, if you approach the situation with understanding and compassion, you’ll be more inclined to try again next time.
This is where small daily victories come into play. Sometimes, all we need is one small step forward to develop a new habit and maintain consistency. Whatever you're striving to improve or change, if it feels daunting, tell yourself, "Just for today, I'll do a 15-minute workout instead of the full hour," or "Just for today, I'll read 5 pages instead of the entire chapter," and celebrate these as small victories. Doing so not only helps you establish new habits but also allows you to acknowledge the progress you've made and the trust you've built within yourself.

Good morning! this is one of my fav morning journaling prompts to do every morning. I feel that when I journal in the morning, my day runs a lot smoother and I tend to find the positives more often. journaling helped me escape a feeling of being stuck in the creative aspect of my life as well as just generally be a lot happier. Try these prompts next time you journal!

Quitting social media! I am addicted to just scrolling and scrolling and wishing I was doing all those things instead of being stuck in my house. I deleted Insta, and Tiktok.
This is my first step towards freeing myself from the digital crack.

Day 9: April 13th, 2024.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Care Tasks: I'm going to attempt some of the tasks I didn't complete yesterday, like making my bed and throwing away some things.
Health: My focus today is on eating healthier and tracking my water intake.
Finances: Checking my investment account and spending as little as I can on my lunch (while getting something healthy). So probably skipping getting a drink to go with the food and just making some of the tea in the breakroom at work.

the woman i want to be loves to
educate herself on various topics
take care of herself mentally, physically and spiritually
be pretty in her own way. prettiness doesn’t hurt and isn’t strict, it adapts itself through her authenticity
explore her inner world & the outer world
be in tune with her inner child
embrace and understand her emotions, even the bad ones
be kind, specially with herself
be organized, but flexible with what life gives her
work hard, rest hard. she loves to be in harmony and have a balanced life
eat light and nourishing food
feel good in her own skin and she actively work on it everyday

PILATES, YOGA, BARRE, AND SOLIDCORE!!!
Hi girlies! lets talk wellness. I love working out and moving my body so naturally I have been a gym girlie, to a pilates girlie, to a yoga girlie... ive done it all! I swear lol. trying all these different workouts out gave me the best workout routine ever!
3 solid core classes/week
1 hot vinyasa yoga/week
1-2 at home pilates inspired workout/week
SolidCore is my FAVORITE. it's a Pilates inspired workout that gives you one of the hardest challenges in your life! I can definitely say after 5 classes you feel super strong and your body just feels so much better! since its a core focused workout, ive noticed a huge decrease in bloating and overall helped me achieve toned stomach, arms, and legs! it is most definitely a lot harder than pilates!
when I was in my yoga era, I fell in love with vinyasa. basically a practice of yoga that involves a continuous flow. my local yoga studio, offers a HIIT Vinyasa in a 99 degree room. its the best strength building class that will make you sweat and stretch at the same time.
to keep the consistency, I do a couple workouts at home in between my classes. ive done barre and traditional pilates at a studio but ive noticed that those workouts can easily be done any home AND WE ALL KNOW THESE CLASSES ARE EXPENSIVE ASF!!! so I barre/pilates inspired classes at home! these are some of my favorite videos to follow along! I promise they work just as great!
