Have you read Stolen Focus by Johann Hari? When you mentioned maximizing every moment of your day and taking in, in, in content, it made me think of this book. I was flooding my mind with so much content that there was no free moment to CREATE a single thought of my own. We are on the same page this year <3

My notes on your notes : x

- great idea about the mondays , I’m going to think of something I can do every Monday that makes me look forward to it.

- I’m also going to start buying myself small bundles of flowers at the beginning of every month. I love flowers, but only ever get them if someone else gives them to me as a gift. Always seemed like a frivolous expense. But I would by some for a friend in a heartbeat so why not myself?

- Gorgeous words about not disconnecting. I’ve found it helpful to turn off all app notifications, so when I am ready to engage or connect I know it’s on my terms and when I have the brain capacity to absorb it.

- Regarding taking it slow, I’ve started walking my dog in the mornings not listening to everything. I’ve noticed it really does make my days seem less hyperactive.
