Okay, so I’ve been feeling this vibe lately, like, I actually like my life. Sounds simple, right? But it’s been a journey, man. I decided to document how I got here.
Started with a Brain Dump
First thing I did, I just grabbed a notebook and wrote down everything that was bugging me. Everything. Big stuff, little stuff, the annoying neighbor, the leaky faucet, that weird feeling I get on Sundays. Just got it all out.
Sorting the Mess
Then, I looked at that mess of words and started circling the things I could actually control. The neighbor? Nope. The faucet? Yep. Sunday blues? Maybe…
- Leaky Faucet – Called a plumber. Done.
- Sunday Blues – Started scheduling fun stuff on Sundays. Boom.
- Weird work stress- Talk to my boss, and we figure something out.
Baby Steps, Big Wins
It wasn’t about fixing everything at once. It was about picking one thing, doing it, and feeling that little win. Like, I finally cleaned out my closet. Sounds dumb, but it felt amazing.
The “No” List
This was huge. I started saying “no” to stuff I didn’t want to do. Extra work projects? Nope. Awkward social events? Nah. It was tough at first, but it freed up so much time and energy.
Finding My “Yes”
With all that “no” space, I started finding my “yes.” Like, I always wanted to learn to play guitar. So I signed up for lessons. Sucked at first, still kinda suck, but I’m doing it.
Gratitude, Seriously
Sounds cheesy, but every night, I just listed out a few things I’m grateful * is a good way to make me fell good.
So, yeah, that’s it. I’m still figuring stuff out, still have bad days, but overall? I like my life. And that feels pretty damn good.
