Let’s Talk About Small Wins
It’s a Saturday morning and while I would LOVE to be playing Pokopia, I am hunched over my laptop working on something I do not get paid for.
My neck hurts. My back hurts. But I am so pleased with myself because this is something that has been on my list for a while and it is FINALLY DONE!
This made me think of the importance of showing up for yourself. IDK about you but I fall into the habit of putting aside my wants and needs. I can be there for family and friends but when I need to do something for me, I always seem to have an excuse as to why I can’t do it or why I’ll do it later.
It feels good to show up for myself. I made me a promise. I drew me a list of things to do today and the list is finally done.
(It didn’t even take that long so I’m kinda disappointed in myself for procrastinating).
And honestly? That feeling of crossing it off my list… priceless. It’s a reminder that showing up for yourself doesn’t have to be dramatic or time-consuming- it just has to happen. So here’s to keeping promises to ourselves, even the small ones. Now… maybe I’ll reward myself with a little Pokopia time.
