Lockdown 1: we are all in this together. House pro

Lockdown 1: we are all in this together. House projects. Garden projects. Sour dough. Grow things from seed. Start that side hustle or business. Have those zoom quizzes. Go for your daily walk.

Lockdown 2: we’ve done this before, we can do it again. We are doing it for Christmas. We’ve got this 💪🏻

Lockdown 3: Nope I’m done.

And that’s okay. Let’s just do what we need to do so that we live to see another day.

Jars of...Motivation! Did these little jars save

Jars of...Motivation!

Did these little jars save me from a serious head funk?

Why yes they did!

Let me explain. I've got a lot of ideas and projects on to go. Looking at my to do lists is OVERWHELMING. What do I do instead? Nothing!

Mental health and The Overwhelm had got to me. There was no 'new year, new me' this year. There was 'new year, same depressed me under a cloud of darkness who isn't getting things done'.

Until my business mentor stepped in and we came up with this strategy to make jars for some of my projects, and write out tasks to do for those projects.

Now instead of looking at a to do list, getting overwhelmed and doing nothing I have some pretty jars to pull a task out from. Okay, it isn't perfect - sometimes I pull something out that needs another task doing first so I just pop it back inside and pick out another one.

If you are struggling then I would really recommend this technique! It got me out of a funk.

Lockdown day one - how we all doing?

I’m not doing too well but I’ve taken my medication and been for a walk.

I know it is really cheesy but my DMs are open if you need to talk anything from lockdown boredom to blogging questions

Dear everyone, I wrote out a different post for t

Dear everyone,

I wrote out a different post for tonight but following days in bed with depression I want to just remind that tomorrow you don’t have to be perfect.

I know, it’s the first Monday of the year.

Here’s the thing - we aren’t going to magically wake up, get ready and do ALL those things we said we would do. Eating healthier, exercising more, side hustling all the money, completing all of those courses, reading all those books, saving all that money and being our ✨perfect✨ selves.

Instead if we have unrealistic expectations we are going to FAIL!

Why not take just one thing you can improve upon tomorrow? Mine is exercise, spurred on by @the_nifty_nomad who is going to hold me accountable. I am going to master that before trying to add another thing in.

Sure, I might end up doing some of the things on my ✨perfect life✨ list, but that’s not the goal.

The goal for tomorrow is to go for a walk.

That’s it!

Remember - progress not perfection.

Merry Christmas everyone! It wasn’t the year we expected but here we are. Have a fantastic day, from all the Drews.

TREAT YO SELF CHALLENGE The other day I was think

TREAT YO SELF CHALLENGE

The other day I was thinking...why don’t we treat ourselves more often?

Hear me out. Many of us have financial goals that we want to achieve, or we have other financial commitments (like children) meaning we don’t treat ourselves much.

I had tested two perfumes that I fell in love with, and I could afford them. But I felt as though I had to justify buying them.

This the #TreatYoSelfChallenge was born.

Here is how it works:

1. Choose a treat for YOURSELF! Not for your children, not towards a debt. Something totally indulgent for you!

2. Divide the cost by 100 to get your 1% number.

3. Now side hustle those 1%s at a time.

I wanted two perfumes, which came to a total of £162.90. I rounded it up to £163 and have been counting every £1.63 I make on Facebook Marketplace towards the goal. So far I have managed to order this beaut and I love love love it. I feel so special when I see it on my shelf and spray it.

I chose Marketplace as a way to declutter and make extra money but you could do anything.

Check out my story highlight for the 1% at a time template.

If you are taking part then tag me - I would love to see what you choose and encourage you along the way.
