You could try putting something at the start of your list that\u2019s enjoyable. Like enjoy your favorite beverage, put on some favorite music, light a candle, or spend a few minutes on a favorite activity, any little reward or activity that makes you happy. Starting with something easy to check off helps you start, which is half the battle. I put simpler things at the start of my list so that it\u2019s easy to build up steam. Also check how long your overall routine takes. If it\u2019s an hour, 2 hours, etc. tell yourself that\u2019s a small price to pay for accomplishing the things you\u2019ve decided are important. It can all be over in 2 hours and then you\u2019ll feel so good! Keep telling yourself a tiny percentage of your day is a small price to pay for desired results, and just work on getting accepting that it\u2019s going to take a little time every day, it\u2019s unavoidable. Half the time we\u2019re telling ourselves an untrue story that\u2019s working against us, ask yourself what thoughts are coming against you. Bringing awareness can break some of the hold. We definitely can change the future!<\/div>\n<\/div>
