I don’t even know why I still bother with “monthly reset” routines and cute aesthetic planners.
Every month I sit down like I’m the CEO of my life, confidently setting goals as if I didn’t abandon all of them last month.
This August felt like a fresh start. I genuinely believed I’d be that girl.
Keyword: believed😂.
Now it’s the 7th day of the month, and I’ve already broken every single rule I made. Not gentle detours I mean full-blown betrayal of everything I said I’d do.
Here’s what I told myself I'd commit to:
– Wake up at 6am
– Journal every morning
– Cut down screen time
– Workout 3 times a week
– Eat clean
– Post consistently
– Be calm, stop overthinking
– Save more, spend less
– Read a book
– Protect my peace
Now here’s what actually happened(Don't jugbe me😭):
I’ve been waking up late daily and not the peaceful, soft-life kind of late. I’m talking “scroll through my phone for an hour before moving” late.
My journal? One sad entry written on the 1st, now collecting dust.
Clean eating? Bread and biscuits have become my closest companions.
Fitness? If pacing to the fridge counts, then yes — I’m thriving.
Posting consistently? I forgot Hive even existed for two whole days.
And inner peace? She’s missing. If you see her, tell her to call me.
🧠 What I’ve Realized(Summary: it's my excuses😂):
I’m not restarting the month. I’m not pretending I have it all figured out.
I’m just continuing awkwardly, imperfectly, and honestly.
Sometimes, discipline isn’t about never falling off.
It’s just about showing up the next day(unlike me , it's past the next day and...), even when you feel silly for failing the day before.
So if your August hasn’t exactly been productive, aesthetic, or peaceful either say same or drop one goal you’ve already ditched 😂
Let’s normalize being inconsistent but still trying.
Many times that happens to us, what we must do is find ourselves again and return to the starting point, continue advancing step by step until we return to all the proposed goals, come on, if you can, start now without respite. Greetings 🥰
As long as we don't give up
We'll be fine😊
