Consistency is just another form of perfectionism. I have been trying to change my habits and the way I’m doing it is just not working. It’s supposed to be fun, enjoyable. I’m trying too hard. It’s not.
I have forgotten joy and fun and silliness.
Today I ate breakfast at 7pm. I slept all day. My body, mind and soul is having a rest. I am no longer going to try too hard at anything. I am bringing back silliness, fun and joy. Rules are out the door. Purpose, productivity and reason can just fire truck off. I’m done with it. Time for a reset.
I may teach myself to dance to Master KG’s Jerusalema Nomcebo’s voice is so beautiful. Love this song. Check out the dance challenge.
Moderately Sober 
I have struggled with this exact issue for years.
It is a tough one.
Hugs

It is a form of perfectionism though isn’t it? Or am I looking at it wrong?
Me too for years. Only discovered the perfectionism angle lately.
Learning again and again to be kind to myself 😁
Went to look at the sea today and a short walk. The weather was just right❤️

I consider it an anxiety fear response.
If I do it right, perfectly, etc then things will go my way and I will not be noticed or criticized.
If not…things might fall apart.

I have never thought of it this way.
That makes me wonder about whether I am doing something for myself or for how it looks to others. I’d like to think I am doing it for myself. A lot of times I can’t be bothered to do it for me. Hmmm.
More self care needed.

I always say I didn’t get sober so I could do more. You don’t need pressure on yourself. Enjoy the dancing. Its fun and exercise at the same time.

I needed to hear that first line
‘I didn’t get sober so I could do more.’
Point taken. Thank you Cherie.

I can dance round my kitchen but not much more – I’ll aim to be silly at least once every day this week and post next weekend about it! Xx
