Today I am going to practice using the tools I have.
And this breaks out into two parts, actually.
One part is doing the actual practice. Applying myself to the guidelines I think will work. Doing it the way I have set out for myself - because how will I know it works unless I do it that way?
And yes, I feel a little silly needing to follow a how-to on daily cleaning, self-care, and getting my work done. BUT...
If I don't keep track, if I don't write down, if I don't start with "getting the knife out of the drawer", I don't remember what works. Then I spend precious minutes trying to remember what comes next.
This is something I have long accepted about myself - but something I often forget. (ha ha.) No matter how intensely I wish to remember, regardless of how logical the steps are, if it's not written down, the next day I don't have a clue.
So, today I am going to PRACTICE doing it the way I have written down. I am going to take notes. I am going to be aware of what I like and what I don't. And I am going to accept that this is the most efficient way for me.
The Second part of using the tools I have is using ALL the tools I have to hand. I have 2 or 3 (or 12) different note taking possibilities in my phone. Some are more convenient than others AT SPECIFIC TIMES. Some work better than others for immediate recall.
I have different journaling options, different likes and dislikes on specific thought processes - but I also have a habit of not really reviewing things I've written on paper, as opposed to in the computer.
I have 3 different spaces I can use to work in. I have various options for exercising my body and relaxing my mind and feeding my soul.
It's time to play with all my toys, and see what really works in each situation.
So today I am going to practice using all the tools I have, diligently, with attention to my details, my truths, my abilities.
What tools do you have?
I hope you have a great day!
