distractions and priorities

I watch motivational videos
And get mad at myself
For not working hard enough
For procrastinating
For wasting time overthinking
But in this modern age
Of advertising and shine
It is easy to get distracted
There are series I need to watch
Clothes I need to buy
Hangouts I need to have
And I just feel stuck
How to prioritise things?
What matters the most?
For me, working hard seems the right way
Because now is the time
To focus on myself
My growth
My dreams.

  2. God designed you perfectly.. this a lovely saying someone once told me when they saw how hard I was on myself:
    The snow goose need not bathe to make himself white
    Neither need you do anything but be yourself ❤ Go easy on you.

  4. No worries darling…you’re becoming wise to the ebb and flow of life❤️❤️🤗🤗

    Recognition of the endless distractions, and assessing the reality of your dreams and goals, and the discipline required to realize them, is an essential step to maintaining balance.

    Truth: some days are better than others. Just keep with it and do your best and when you look back you’ll see that most days are moving in the right direction 😘🥰
