5 Habits I want to Change

23 June


1. Sleeping in
              I am soooo bad at waking up early when I’m on vacation and I solely blame it on being a night owl. My brain for no specific reason is more functional at night. Whether it’s writing, cleaning or playing; I unconsciously start doing my main tasks when clock hits 7PM. Don’t get me wrong,  I absolutely love waking up early when school is on-going, like I literally have no problem with it and that is why I wanted to incorporate that habit fully into my life even on the days I don’t have to.

 2. Exercising at night
              Again with doing things at night, I tend put off working out until it gets dark just because… I don’t know… I like showering at night more than in the middle of the day? Yup, sound about right, but the main reason I want to change this is because exercising makes me more awake than tired and also, I’d rather boost my energy mid-day by working out so I could actually be more productive afterwards.

3. Neglecting my hair
              I am the worst person when it comes to hair care. I dread conditioning it, I am always too lazy at brushing and combing and much more obviously would not care, even an ounce of putting hair masks on.  Currently my hair is growing preeeeety long and I want to put more effort on it so that I won’t look like a dull, long-haired witch all the time. I’d like to set aside time for styling it every often and not just settle for a low bun or a pony tail.

4. Focusing on short-term goals
              I am currently on my health/weight loss journey this quarantine season and I’ve set goals of basically eating healthier rather than dieting. Included with that goal is to exercise daily which I religiously did for a month and a half. Unfortunately, I got sucked into this hole of not seeing immediate results which caused me to be unmotivated and eventually stop, which tends to happen when I lose focus on my long-term goals, and that is why I wanted to get rid of that bad habit/mindset.

5. People pleasing
              Oh to the times I couldn’t even count of me pleasing people rather than prioritising my inner peace. I have this bad habit for a long time now, and I have been praying for it to change because honestly, it’s tiring. It’s hard for me to say no to things especially when it would make the others happy or if it would make me more normal. At first, I thought it was just peer pressure but growing up I find it quite more self-benefiting because it makes me feel good that they are pleased by my… decision, I guess?  and I definitely want to change that. Normalize rejecting plans and saying no Ciele, it’s 2020 common.
