Dear readers,
Itās been a long winter/spring/not-yet-summer transition. To be honest, I feel myself falling back into that sluggish mood as Chicago embarks on its fourth cloudy day in a row.
Wanna know a secret? š¤«
ā¦I havenāt worked out or walked since Sunday. š«
Annnnnddd, my energy is low. When my energy is low, I definitely feel less confident than usual or less prepared to take on the world.
However, I know Iām not alone. According to WebMD, there are ā95 conditions associated with fatigue, low self-esteem, restless or irritability and socially withdrawnā (2022). The list seems really long. But after reading it, it kind of makes sense how sleep deprivation, dehydration, depression, hay fever, and some cancers how these conditions can connect an individualās energy level to their confidence level.
I wonder what would happen though if we chose to push through the fatigue + start our days with some positives self-talk. š¤
In November 2020āwith all the craziness that was the year 2020āI decided to to start my morning routine by looking in the mirror + saying at least 5 nice things to myself before talking to anyone else. (Well, I technically still yāall to God first. But hopefully you get the picture.)
So, I dare you to look in the mirror + say 5 compliments about yourself before you leave the house this morning.
Need an example? Okay, hereās what I said yesterday:
Tyra: Itās Hump Day⦠the sun is hiding behind a gang of clouds⦠+ the work is piling upā¦
BUT, 1. youāre fine,
2. youāre fly,
3. time (youth) is on your side,
4. youāre resourceful +
5. you know how to make things happen efficiently!
Bonus: You can handle this day! š
