Elevate Your Life

For a while, my life consisted of work, cook, clean, repeat.  Sometimes I was lucky enough to get some sleep.  It felt like I was just existing, not living. There’s more to life, isn’t there?  But how do I get off that hamster wheel and start moving forward? 

If you can relate to those statements, you are not alone.  Many of us spend so much time checking off tasks on our to do lists and learning to exist that we forget to actually do the living part of our life. 

I know that change is hard.  I know how it feels to live during a pandemic.  I know that you need consistency just to stay sane.  However, that doesn’t mean you can’t throw a little fun into your life.  Fun is what makes us happy and gives us something to look forward to.  Fun is an essential part of living. 

When you are making your daily schedule or to do list, make sure to add something fun to your list each and every day.  Yes, put it in your schedule.  Make a date with yourself to dance around the kitchen or play board games (or even video games) with the family.  Schedule a happy hour or painting party or karaoke event on a video chat with your friends or family.  These events are important and can help keep you connected. 

Have you pulled out your calendar to schedule your fun events yet?  What are you waiting for?  Stop the monotony and elevate your mood.  You deserve a little fun in your life!
