Dear readers,
Itâs 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? đ€«
âŠI havenât worked out or walked since Sunday. đ«
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 Iâm not alone. According to WebMD, there are â95 conditions associated with fatigue, low self-esteem, restless or irritability and socially withdrawnâ (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 individualâs 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. đ€
In November 2020âwith all the craziness that was the year 2020âI 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 yâall 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, hereâs what I said yesterday:
Tyra: Itâs Hump Day⊠the sun is hiding behind a gang of clouds⊠+ the work is piling upâŠ
BUT, 1. youâre fine,
2. youâre fly,
3. time (youth) is on your side,
4. youâre resourceful +
5. you know how to make things happen efficiently!
Bonus: You can handle this day! đ
