Habits are Helpful

lcscarlett957

How do you practice self-care?

I used to neglect my self-care because of the same old excuses…

I’m busy

I don’t have time

The day is already over so what is the use

However, reading a book called Atomic Habits and listening to some good YouTube influencers who practice self-care has helped me.

Still a beginner, but taking it more seriously.

Some habits with the following cue, craving, reward and response that I have started for my self-care are…

  1. Do not open my phone until 1 hour or 2 when I wake up
  2. Drinking water when I wake up
  3. Trying to sleep early and prioritize sleep
  4. Eating more healthy food and making my meal plan to try new recipes
  5. Exercise in the morning and walking more to help my well
  6. Create a morning and night skincare routine
  7. Meditation when I work at home to reset my mind
  8. Journaling: writing how I felt on paper than keeping it in and becoming mentally unwell
  9. New Hobbies & Comfort Zone. I’m trying to grow more as a person by putting myself out there where its uncomfortable
  10. Limit screen time and reading books

Travel and Experience

lcscarlett957

How do you want to retire?

I want to retire peacefully and with a good mary to my name that I contributed to anything any company any foundation and they know that I tried my best and I’m completely thankful and free to do what I would love to.

The first thing is is travel, and do side, projects that would keep me engaged.

I love traveling and the world is so vast that I have not seen anything yet. I have more and more years of me ahead, if I would love to.

Well, because through life, there’s always this blockade, stages of kids, helping people and be involved in so many things that you forget to take care of yourself for a bit.

Even though the world is changing more and more that people are trying to do more self-care in the early stages. But in the retirement in stages, there’s more to look forward to.

Summer and Where do We Begin

lcscarlett957

What is your favorite season of year? Why?

My favorite season would have to be Summer. It was spring before, but I do remember it could be cold.

Plus when you live in the northern part of the world…. you wish it was good weather every day, instead of freezing, they’re using snow and cold weather.

So, Summer is my favorite season.

Like the Phineas and Ferb song goes…

🎶 The Days Are Longer, the Nights Are Shorter. The Sun is Shining🎶

It’s summer, every single moment is worth its weight in gold.
Summer, it’s like the world’s best story and it’s waiting to be told.

It’s ice cream cones and cherry soda dripping down your chin. 😁

It’s ☀️ summer man where we begin 🎶

Reading List

lcscarlett957

List three books that have had an impact on you. Why?

Well, I’ve started reading more self-help books lately, because they really broaden my perspective.

All three books that I am still reading, fixed my problems with a little bit of time management, organization, taking charge, letting go control-wise, and personal-wise, looking at some good habits, and reminders of leading a peaceful and good life.

  1. Atomic Habits: James Clear
  2. Good Vibes, Good Life: Vex King
  3. The Let Them Theory: Mel Robbins

Social Events

lcscarlett957

What fears have you overcome and how?

Hmm, recently I have tried to overcome my fear for a goal this year of going to a large social event by myself, with no friends or relatives or family members.

I was just going to a cool social event by myself, avec moi…

It’s really scary, but since I’ve gone to small events with my friends. I thought it might be a nice idea to take a big leap out of my comfort zone and go to a social event by myself.

And I would have to say it was pretty cool and fun. I got most of my comfort today but soon I was nervous at first but then I kind of blended in.

It was an anime convention called Anime North, and it’s usual, certainly every year in May that they usually have their convention to go see panelists, play games, and cosplay. It’s just nice to see the costumes and just to go around having fun.

Since I’m a big fan of anime, I’ve always loved watching it ever since I was young till now and forever, and I was really surprised at all the costumes and so many people that came for a genre that we all love to watch, which was interesting.

Proud Celestial

Do you practice religion?

Yes, my religion is Celestial/ Christian in modern terms. It’s a little bit of a mix between Christian and Evangelical.

I go to Celestial Church of Christ. It’s a Pentecostal church that was found in Benin. But it is spread worldwide and mostly in West Africa.

I pray to god and Jesus Christ every Sunday and always do my nightly and morning prayers.

I believe in the higher power that is in control of everything and everyone in this world.

Variety of Hobbies

lcscarlett957

What are you good at?

I’m a kind of perfectionist that I want to be good at everything…

However, I have been humbled…

And now know it is alright to be good at one thing and not another and build yourself to try a new skill or to not be aware of what I am good at so I’ll try my best.

For instance… I’m good at

  1. Singing
  2. Cooking
  3. Observing….a bit of Deduction ~ Still working on it
  4. Memorization
  5. Dancing
  6. A mix of Art in different forms

That’s all I could think of.

Cold…Used to it, Not a Fan

lcscarlett957

How do you feel about cold weather?

As a person who was born in Canada for all her life and has experienced the high and lows of cold weather….

Gotta say not a fan….

Cold weather is always bothersome because it never goes away quickly when winter starts.

The weather can be a pain especially of the opposite effect I have observed for years in Toronto.

When it’s not snowing a lot, it’s damn freezing….

When it’s not freezing, it’s snowing too much…

So you are either gonna catch a cold, get frostbite and can get sick easily or you get stuck on the road for how long and slippery conditions make it hard to drive….
