Loving Yourself Challenges  ___ Make your bed every single day: After a long day, you deserve to climb into a welcoming, fresh bed. Plus, it’s an accomplishment you can achieve right at the beginning of the day…it sets the stage for a successful day ahead.  ___ Be present in each moment: It’s so easy to just “get through the day” and work on your TO DO list. No matter what you’re doing, from sweeping the kitchen floor to filing papers at the office, be present and mindful of what you’re doing. Don’t rush through the task…take it slow, realize the benefits of doing the task, be grateful that you’re able to handle it.  ___ Be honest with yourself: Is your TO DO list too full, too light, or just right. Look it over, assess the situation, and be honest with yourself. It’s it’s too full, it may be time to stop doing what’s no longer serving you. If it’s too light, it may be time to add some items you’ve been procrastinating on.  ___ Keep telling yourself, “I am enough”: So many of us get down on ourselves. We’re often our own harshest critics. Whatever you are able to achieve in a day, be happy with that. Pat yourself on the back. Be your own cheerleader.  ___ Do one thing daily that’s either organizing-related or cleaning- related: You deserve to live in an organized, well-kept environment. Make that happen by doing just one thing every day that moves you in that direction.  ___ Do something just for you: Yes, it’s important to serve others, but not at the expense of never serving ourselves. Do something just for you every day, like enjoying a hobby, reading, exercising, a skin care routine…something that makes you feel more alive.  ___ Each day, write one sentence that answers this question… “I love __________ about myself”: Maybe you love that you can think quickly in challenging situations? Perhaps you are really good at keeping your kitchen cabinets organized? Maybe you read with excellent comprehension? Doing this daily journal entry will help you focus on all of your amazing qualities. It’s important to love yourself and be proud of YOU! Back to Organizing and Life Challenges Index
