Minimalism丨91 years, 33 years old, to be a very wow, middle-aged girl
Lu Yao said in "Ordinary World": "If life requires you to endure pain, you must grit your teeth and persevere." This sentence seems to be tailor-made for me.
Whenever I encounter difficulties, I think of this sentence and use it to motivate myself to keep moving forward.
Think about 2023, that's a turning point. I finally survived that period of unattended and wrote an article with more than 100,000+ views, which also marked my official entry into the ranks of bloggers. All of this is the result of my own hard work, and I am very proud of myself.
Before the age of 32, I experienced a low point in my life. During that time, I had no money and no love, and even fell into depression. I saw the warmth and coldness of human feelings, and I also completely awakened in the process.
I realized that only I could save myself. So, after the age of 32, I began to be "ruthless" to myself, I gritted my teeth and disciplined, and tried to change myself.
Over the past year, I've worked as hard as I can. I wake up at 5 a.m. every day and start reading and writing.
Even when I am with a baby, I will squeeze out time to practice photography and run my self-media account.
In this way, I finally pulled myself out of the abyss and gave myself a sparkling life.
I firmly believe that as long as we ordinary mothers are willing to work hard to cultivate ourselves, our fate will definitely change.
So, how can I develop myself harder in 2024? Here are my plans:
First, the pursuit of both internal and external training
Every morning when I wake up, instead of looking at my phone to kill time, I drink a glass of boiled water to clear my mind, and then start meditating, reading and writing. I eat breakfast carefully and pay attention to nutrition.
Before I go out, I always put on sunscreen and light makeup to make myself feel my best for each day. Image management is very important to me, not only because it boosts my self-confidence, but also because it respects others.
2. Let the plan lead each day
I got into the habit of making a daily planning list. Every morning, as soon as I wake up, I make a list of tasks to be completed for the day and prioritize them.
In this way, my mobility and efficiency have been greatly improved. I have always believed that a planned life makes time more valuable.
3. Stay away from consumable apps
In the past, I always wanted to watch short videos or shopping apps to relax for a while, but every time I unknowingly consumed a lot of time.
Now, in order to use my time more efficiently, I decided to uninstall these consumable apps and devote more energy to studying. After all, time is money!
4. Adhere to lifelong learning
"Live and learn" is one of my mottos.
I will read more books and read good books to constantly improve my thinking height and life pattern;
At the same time, I will continue to deepen the field of writing and photography to build my core competitiveness;
Of course, I will also pay attention to industry trends and market demand in order to adjust my development direction in time.
Fifth, pay attention to internal and external maintenance
As a woman, it is very important to take care of yourself.
I don't just focus on my daily skin care and makeup skills;
I will also pay attention to internal health maintenance methods, such as soaking feet before going to bed, making facial masks regularly, etc.;
I also insist on applying hand cream and body lotion to keep my skin hydrated;
These habits make me look more youthful and energetic!
6. Insist on regular exercise
I gained 30 pounds after giving birth, which made me very distressed!
In addition, I don't have enough energy to bring a baby every day, and I often feel tired and in a bad mood;
Therefore, I decided to stick to 60 minutes of exercise every day, whether it is yoga or running, to energize my body and make my life better!
Exercise can not only help me lose weight and shape up, but also improve my physical fitness and immunity!
7. Maintain a healthy work and rest
Going to bed early and waking up early is one of the habits I've been trying to cultivate, because staying up late can really lead to a lack of energy every day and seriously affect daily life and productivity!
Since going to bed early and waking up early, I have found that every difficult and beautiful thing such as reading, exercising, studying and so on has become handy!
Written at the end of the article
Although there are many constraints and responsibilities to bear after becoming a mother, I can't lose myself and give up the opportunity to pursue my dreams and grow!
In this world, no one will save you except yourself, and no one can save you, and only by insisting on what others can't insist on can you have success and happiness that others can't have!
So I'm going to keep working hard no matter what!
