Today is DAY ONE! Super excited about my new healing journey and I hope you will come along for the ride.
Just to clarify something - I am DEFINITELY not shooting for perfection here. I'm trying to make some healthy changes and I think this could be the shift in mindset that I need. I don't think anyone would ever get a perfect score, at least I know I never will! That's fine with me, but it will be fun to try to beat my own score, whatever that may be. It's also just mainly a reminder of all the things I think would help me life a better life, because some of these things I forget to do. If I start to feel overwhelmed, I will scale back on the number of habits or make the changes smaller.
Ally and I decided that I will get my reward when I hit a score of 544 for December. I will probably increase it in January, but with the holidays and the fact that I am just starting (and want to make sure I am excited to keep going), I think that's a good starting goal. My reward for December? New boots!
Also...I forgot one of the most important habits of all - Meditation! I am going to combine journaling with the planning habit and add meditation to my list.
This unexpectedly really inspired me. I have just come out of a really difficult breakup and a few other big life changes, and at first I was excited about the new start but I have hit a depressive episode from it now. You inspire me so much Mary Ellen. You are dealing with more loss and grief than most of us can even imagine in a lifetime and you keep swimming and are honest about your struggle. Thank you.
Thank you. I have to keep swimming even though most of the time I feel like I’m drowning. I hope that feeling will change, but the only thing that makes things better at all is planning and trying to improve
@@PlanningwithBumble I really hope things will get better for you, you so deserve it, you bring so much joy to the world around you. Whatever you need to do to heal.
Mary Ellen, you don't even know how much I needed this video. I am trying to change habits and not doing very well. I was diagnosed with bipolar depression several years ago. I fight every day to be a better person then I was the day before. Something like this will help me track being better, do more and be accountable. Thank you, thank you for being you, being vulnerable by sharing your story. I know you help me every day.
I am almost 4 months sober from drugs and alcohol. I wish you absolutely the best on your journey with habits! I just hope you're not putting too much pressure on yourself. Take care of yourself Mary Ellen, love you!!❤
I’m not. I gave up the majority of my perfectionist mindset within the last couple years. I don’t think it’s healthy, the way i was. I will never get a perfect score and I don’t care, the point is to beat my own score and remind myself of what’s important so that I can do the best I can to promote a healthier lifestyle. CONGRATULATIONS on your sobriety. That’s a massive achievement. Keep going!!!
💕
This is a great idea, and I know you got this! An idea on rewarding yourself…Maybe you can grade on a 90-80-70-60% of your total points. Say you get at least an 80%, which would be a B or an A, you get a reward, and if you did extra great (an A) you get an extra bonus.
I am in the process of reading Atomic Habits . It’s brilliant. Very different angle than most self improvement books. The theory of how small consistent changes add up in the long run is amazing. It’s not rocket science but most of us don’t think of it that way. When we are ready to change, we want to go all in and take drastic steps.
Yes! I highly recommend it. It was a short audio book.
I don't know how I missed this, I tried to watch all your videos as soon as they come out. Mary Ellen I am so happy for you and I am a living witness all the steps that you're taking are exactly what I have done and am doing as part of my healing and it really does work. Please, please, please don't give up. When my daughter was alienated from me 3 years ago and my divorce from a horribly abusive individual 7 years ago It was incredibly, incredibly, incredibly painful. I have taken baby steps in this journey. I felt like I had nothing left. I began watching TH-camrs such as yourself ,getting ideas and learning about boundaries, trauma, Recovering from narcissistic abuse and parental Alienation, clothing style, makeup. Heck, I'm just learning how to put on makeup and I'm nearly 60 years old🤣
I am so proud of you. I know that the last 4 to 5 years of your life some days have felt like walking through h***.. But you're still standing and you're standing for a reason.
Check out these other TH-cam channels that really helped me:
1. 2nd act TV
2. Fifties and fabulous
3. Grow with Joe
4. Mindfulness movement- Their sleep meditations are incredible.
5. Abide- sleep meditations
6. Grace For today
7. Dappy T Keys- AMAZING INSTRUMENTAL to play while working, sleeping, showering, cooking, LIVING!!!!
So proud of you. If I were on social media I would definitely connect but social media( other than YT, LinkedIn in ) Aren't my thing.
Blessings to you,
Tara
Thank you Tara!!! Love this encouraging message. I’ll check out those channels. ❤️
@@PlanningwithBumble ♥️
I’m inspired. I lost over a hundred pounds a few years ago but started gaining during quarantine and I’ve been feeling like my health and eating habits are completely out of control. I’m making a change in December starting with a complete physical. This has inspired me to look at things differently. I’m not perfect and don’t need to be but I can do better little by little.
This is so awesome. You could always do incremental rewards. Say one reward for 600-650, another one for 700, etc. It will be interesting to see your progress. I'm always rooting for you Mary Ellen🥰
Mary Ellen: thank you so much for sharing this. I am so excited-perfect timing!
I was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year. I am doing really, really well. I basically lost a year of my life as I had countless medical appointments with six different doctors and their teams, plus surgery and I recently finished radiation treatments. I got an infection from one of my biopsies so I battled that for six weeks then I had surgery (2 month healing) and radiation, so I did not get to spend any time outdoors or with my extended family for the past year as I had to isolate.
I am so excited about the upcoming year . Cancer free in ‘23 will be my mantra and I will get back to enjoying a normal lifestyle! I bought fitness and wellness planners to prep for the new year. So many things you show in this video are things I also enjoy/need to do or want to do in the new year so I’m excited to join you on your habit tracking journey. I love this idea-esp the rewards. I’m really excited about this!
You ARE our teacher as well as our friend. I always enjoy your lessons as well as you sharing your life experiences (good and bad) with us. Thank you for being you. I really appreciate you! ❤
I discovered Crayola Super Tips about five years ago, on my own. I started out lettering with them before I could afford the better pens like Tombow. They are a best kept secret. I think Crayola deserves a huge award for their quality products for kids. (And beyond) Crayola is an awesome company.
I am a sporadic tracker which means I randomly track things on various spaces and in awkward places. This is the best thing for my ADHD brain and I am glad not to be the only one who needs to tracker so many habits. Love you Mary Ellen 😁
I love Atomic Habits. I am reading it too. I read another book and made some changes this year. I make my bed first thing in the AM, set a specific wake up time and I started listening to some podcasts. I’ve been able to stick to these. Now I’m ready to do a little more. Going to make a tracker thanks to you 😊
This is fantastic & inspiring!! Atomic Habits is one of the most helpful books I've read. I've also recently read 2 books by Dr. Edith Eger: The Choice & The Gift. They deal with grief & trauma & reframing your thoughts. I have found her implementing her advice to be the most healing. I continue to love & learn so much from your videos. Thank you so much. And most importantly - you've got this!!
I'm going to make something like this today and do this with you Mary Ellen! I have also suffered multiple losses and have had some traumatic events.
I am not in that super dark place anymore, thank God, but there are things that I can do that will help me feel better, I know they will help me but for some reason I am not doing them! I think this is a great way and who knows, maybe I will start to feel some real joy in my life again. It is worth a try.
Thank you for sharing
This is AMAZING!!! I kind of want to get a teacher layout now and create this lol.
I think it’s a great idea to have different rewards for different numbers maybe. Like a good, better, best situation. Even if you only do 50% of these, it’s still 50% better than if you did nothing! You got this 💜
Thanks Christopher! My daughter also mentioned something like that, but I told her it would be too complicated in the beginning, maybe as I go along though! And yes, honestly the point is to KNOW what I want to do, not to be perfect at it 🙂
Extra filler paper in this layout is almost always available in the sale section. (I ended up with wild style most recently, but I just covered it.)
I watched your PWM using the self care stickers and I don't think that your list is too much. Your list is pretty much everyday items to do each day and I think this way puts you in check with yourself. Kuddos to you MaryEllen. I've also started doing a list of everyday things on my daily sheets so I see and know what I did and didn't do.
This is Brilliant, you can do this Mary Ellen. I'm doing something similar with habits. I've split them into morning, afternoon and evening chunks so I can see WHEN I feel inspired to do the work and more importantly when I DON'T! What works for me regarding scoring is having a total WEEKLY score of 70% or more (which for many University Courses here in the UK is a Distinction grade so I figure that's good enough for me!) Tracking weekly helps me to focus on the specific thing that is being skipped most frequently so I can have a word with myself on Sunday and get right back to it the next day. If you're scoring monthly then anything over 520 out of 744 would be AMAZING.
Atomic Habits is an excellent book! I’ve been using this at work! Keeps me focused. We start small 2-3 goals and build on each to reach our goals. It’s easier to track your progress. The author of the book says that when tracking becomes a chore, your habit will decrease. It’s a journey! Celebrate your successes and forgive yourself for any mistakes along the way!
Mary ElIen, I'm so sorry to hear about your losses. Sending much love and prayers for peace and comfort ((in virtual hugs!🤗)) This is easily one of my favorite channels for planner inspo! I am so inspired by your creativity and organization. Thank you for sharing your heart with us.❤
I lost my mom and dad, I retired, then I lost my uncle, and my best friend...my dog Sadie...that was the last loss and that is when I broke. It's been a long road of depression and anxiety and trying to get back to a new normal. It's hard. Thank you for your videos, they help so much and you inspire me. So now I am taking up planning, journaling and trying to get better inside. Thank you for videos and all the inspiring ideas. I had never thot of doing things like this and you have given me so many new ideas. Thank you so much for your great videos and sweet Bumble!! I have a Lacey now..she is helping me on this journey called life!
This is a brave and ambitious goal of tracking 24 things! Make sure you are linking goals into trains. Like you are suggesting planner/journalling but only if you would always do those consecutively. I used the routinery app for a while to link my am routine/habits. That puts you in an automatic "after this, that" and i agree with the other lady saying to give yourself an incentive to perform better. So at 200 points just Coffee at Starbucks, or Ally cooking for you or something and make the reward better if you do better. I will definitely get back into habit building since i didnt continue some of them after well... life happened right? I'm giving myself grace and start again. It will be interesting to share the Journey. One thing happened to me too: starting with skincare and mascara really gives me a confidence boost! And for my spf i use a daycream with spf in winter from no7 called protect and perfect (i think wallgreens sells that in usa) in summer i use Vision spf50.
I love the idea of giving a score instead of the absolutist check/not checked, because it's helpful to recognize when effort or partial improvement was made!
I am making two of these: one for me because hey, who doesn’t need a push (social media posts, shoot every day, post to Flickr every day, learn another feature in Photoshop/FinalCut, new recipe each week) And one for my kennel (cleaning different areas, dust off / wipe down, check air filters, food supply levels, blanket swap for new each week, grooming and conditioning), vet schedules for teeth cleaning), OR WORSE I realize the submission deadline for my AKC Gazette article is on me and I haven’t put one word on paper yet!! - you’ve inspired me to not look up and realize half a month has gone by and then I panic and play catch up. I realize putting these ideas in a planner can work but if the idea is in front of me every day, I will be ahead of things rather than playing catch up - or missing out entirely - as you say change can be small but good habits make for a better prepared, less stressed person. HUGE THANK YOU.
Mary Ellen, this has encouraged me to make some daily goals! I wfh now since 2020 and have just let some things go that I need to reign back in, thank you!
I really like 1% better each day , I may not get everything done but by doing even one thing I’m better❤
Also Mary Ellen I need to read and reread cause of my adhd
Thank you so much 😊 I really needed a kick up the bum 😂I’m going to do my own list as I’ve got very lazy after being ill for sooo long, I really need to focus more on getting out of the house 🏡 . New year is going with hubby at least once every other day to walk the dog 🐶. Your video is very helpful thank you 😊❤
Great timing on this video! As we approach the end of the year, it's a time I like to reflect and reset. Great idea to jump start next year! I'm excited to see your scores! YOU CAN DO IT, MARY ELLEN!
You are an inspiration to so many that come here, and not just for the decorative planning! You can accomplish anything you set your mind to doing!❤❤❤
Thank you very much for the inspiration. I struggle with anxiety and depression and am looking for ways to help the struggle a little less overwhelming. I really like this idea. I am so sorry you are going through your losses. I have not been watching your channel for very long but my heart still goes out to you. Know you are not alone and we are here for you. I really enjoy your videos.
I am jumping on broad MaryEllen. I think this would help me with my mental and physical health as I travel through the grief process of losing my mom. Thank you for being a wonderful mentor!
Mary Ellen, your attitude always inspires me. In this video, you have literally taken the wins from days past and are building on them. It seems like a small feat to track something you already do most days but consistency is key. I have Atomic Habits but somehow hearing your voice, a person I can relate to, reiterating some of the content hits home, especially the 1% better. I think you are awesome and look forward to your success.
I enjoy your videos, you are very transparent and authentic....we appreciate that.
I adore this idea. You’ve got this! I wish HP would come out with a habit tracker or maybe incorporate it with their planners. In the meantime I may grab some of these sheets to try something similar to what you did. And I love your idea of a reward at the end of the month.
Thank you! I’m grateful for you, I can definitely relate to you in so many ways and I appreciate you making a difference in my life. ❤
I completely understand. I had 26 losses in a 6 year spans both parents, my best friend grandparents and so many more. I started to push people away because I was terrified to love. I went into the darkest time of my life and fell into depression. It took my children making a comment that triggered me to fight my way back to life and love and happiness. I gave my grief to God because it was more than I could bear alone.
I hope and pray you are finding your way through this dark time. He will give you peace if you ask. ❤🙏
This is great. I love Atomic Habits. I am looking forward to seeing your “scores”. I’ve never been able to stick to this type of list but even 2-3 habits can make all the difference. My recommendation for tinted sunscreen is the Australian Gold Botanical Tinted sunscreen SPF 50. Love!!!
This is a lot of goals! I think 50% deserves a reward. Then increase it each month by 10% or something. I may try this concept...started writing down goals for 2023 while watching you. Definitely an inspiration! I would love to see a habit tracker that in one page can incorporate daily, weekly, monthly trackers. Like drink 40 oz of water per day, but also wipe down kitchen countertops once per week, and go to the gym 2x per month. Thanks Mary Ellen!
Maryellen I to read the book cause I was not at my best and have been having a tough time , it really did help me I wrote down on sticky notes on the ones that spoke to me the 1 % made sense to me I’m glad you are pushing thru girl and hope you are doing well love you and you are truly a warrior 👸 princess❤❤❤
I love the score idea. It encompasses all habits. It’s not an all or nothing attitude. Great job!
I love the book Atomic Habits. I have been going through some personal things and i have been trying so hard to deal with the anxiety and the depression and trying to get myself healthy mentally, emotionally, and physically. You refreshed my memory on a few things. Thank you.
Love the video, as usual! Funny enough, I just finished Atomic Habits myself and love that your video was inspired by it.
I've been working on myself a lot lately and another book I recently read and highly recommend is The 5 Second Rule by Mel Robbins. It has helped me to recognize and intercept my negative thoughts/talk and has already helped me push through some of my own limits. Just like you said, small daily improvements (1% every day) has already made a positive difference in such a short time.
Happy Holidays!! 😊💗
You are so inspiring! I definitely need this and you've inspired me to start now rather than later! And of course, its beautiful! You got this Mary Ellen!
Came to watch this from the plan with me where you explain that perfection is not your goal. I use exactly this spread for habit tracking. I track SO MANY, but a lot I already do (like give dogs meds, etc.), so not a huge burden, just a record that it's done. I also tend to fill it out once/day, rather than filling each out as I do it. More of a keeping on track/reminder than pressure for perfection.
I love the rewards system and setting it up like a game. This is such a cool idea and I cannot wait to incorporate something like this into my planner 😊 and you got this!!!
You’ve got this Mary Ellen 🎉
Sending a genuine thank you to you. I so need this to help me commit to my goals. Thank you.
Love this idea instead of having a million of the tiny habit tracker stickers. This is pretty and inspiring. I think it will definitely help you achieve success especially since you have realistic goals and you have a BIG cheering section rooting for you!
Amazing idea!! I am also doing a lot of changes for 2023, and yes it’s about new habits!! I love this approach because it helps you gain success!! You will do an amazing job!! Team New Habits 2023!!❤❤
Thank you so much for sharing, I have been struggling with finding an easy way to track habits. I just got the HP checklist and couldn't think of fun way to setup. Now I am super excited to follow along with you !
Thanks for sharing. You can do it Mary Ellen!
that is good idea, i have been dealing with deaths this year, lost 3 co workers within
months of each other.
I just found your page. I love your honesty.
I love reading Patricia Cornwall books and I’ve just bought her new books 📚 💕 them,reading for me helps me more sleepy,iPad is not good for me 😊❤
Sooo good. It s the same things I thought to do with them too. Just didn't know how to set it up. Thank you for the inspiration. And.... you got this!
What a great idea!! I have ordered the paper, and will start when it comes.Loved Atomic Habits.
I like the score aspect. Should have known you would make a game with it. But I love to out do myself too, so I may give this a try too.
Love this! I need to improve my routines, too. Sunscreen- I have worn sunscreen every single day without fail since I was 17 (I’m much older than that now, lol). I’ve been loving Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen or their Glow one if you want something extra. Just make sure you use a heaping 1/4 tsp amount for face and neck. ❤
You can do it!! I love your tracker!!
Mary Ellen you are going to do fantastic and change the 1% every day like you plan.
Thank you for all you do. You're such an inspiration! 🥰
You’ve got this! ❤ Thanks for sharing your process!
And we can do this, Mary Ellen! I know YOU can!!🌼
Timely and absolutely inspiring! Thank you so much! You go, girl!
Whew! This list reminded me of all the things we need to be doing in life. I chose 2 focus on your beautiful nail color instead lol!
You have inspired me to make a list like this for my habits that I need to tracks. I know we can both find success doing this!
Starting with you!!!♡
I love this idea! You’ve got this!!
Omgosh..this is awesome & so encouraging. I would say I'm probably 99% the same habits that I need to get into that you have written down. I really enjoy my 1 or 2 glasses of wine a night..but I will try. And getting outside in the winter in Colorado is hard for me..coming from San Diego, CA. It is 14° & snowing today..🙄 I already sound like I'm making stupid excuses. But like I said, your video is very inspiring so.. no more excuses for anything..right! I know you can do it & watching your progress..is a win win. Then there is not beingvon the phone until 1 or so AM every night..again. set a time frame. Thank you Mary Ellen.
I fully expect to never get a perfect score, nor am I striving for perfection, but just a shift in mindset and a trend toward a more healthy and positive lifestyle! Honestly even sitting by a window in the sun during the winter would probably help! They also have those lights that are supposed to simulate sunlight! Anyway I am glad I inspired you!
Mary Ellen this such a great idea. I have been trying to have better habits too! You got this… I have been watching your channel long time and you are a very strong woman ,,, you got this in bag ….
Thank you for sharing your personal struggles & challenges. Being so open & honest about your journey is a testament to your strength & resilience. I've been tracking a few things, adding a new item to track every few weeks. Taking it slowly has helped me keep up with my tracking, so I'm not overwhelmed with the process (it also allows me to use fun stickers!). Thank you so much for the great ideas! Take care & best of luck with your journey.
Love this idea! Also been a rough year for me and I need to get back to ME! These baby steps and tracking are a wonderful idea! Thank you!
Love this spread!!!!
Thanks, Mary Ellen! I just started a tracker for "winter" because I too have fallen into a slump in some areas. That book has been on my list, and I appreciate you talking about the challenge of making changes. I had to make my list with basic tasks included as a reminder, and so that a flow would be created and I would be able to check items off. So it's okay if the list SEEMS long, LOL. Onward and upward!!
Mel Robbins has a good idea for getting moving or changing your mind. 5 Seconds. Count 5-4-3-2-1 and then get up, 5-4-3-2-1, drink the water. I use it when the alarm goes off. It is helping me to stop being a “snoozer”. Also, we are very similar, the Social habit is something I need to incorporate, I isolate often.
Very inspirational. thank you
I am in the process of getting January set up in my 2023 planner and adding a list of goals/habits is definitely something I want to do so thx keep you for sharing your habit tracker. I now have some great ideas on what I want to include in mine. We can do this Mary Ellen. We got this. 👍
I immediately started to create mine for December too! Thank you for the inspiration and I know you can do this! ❤🎉🧑🏻🎄
Thanks for sharing this habit tracker, Mary Ellen. I've been away for a while but just returning. You did not disappoint. I'm going to start this in the new year and follow your lead. WE can do this! Baby steps.
This is such a good exercise! I have an app that I put daily habits in and that’s how I track mine. It has really helped me build a routine that encourages me to take care of myself, and in turn, take care of my to-dos. If you find yourself unable to think of something concrete for “personal development”, (since it’s more vague than say getting out of bed at 7:15), it would be interesting to pick one specific personal development task to focus on for a week and see how that feels. Breaking down tasks and habits for me helps me feel more in control!
Yes, for sure! I do plan on doing that, when I start my wellness planner I’ll be making categories
I tried to do a yearly habit tracker in the front of my journal and that didn't work at all. Now I have a weekly one that works pretty well because I *usually* open my planner each morning and can review the day before.
This is a great idea. My Fitbit helps with reminders to move, sleep, drink water etc. I’m sure the Apple Watch will do the same. Think I will try a simplified version of this in my monthly spread with a habit list in the sidebar and color coded checks in each day. I’ve been searching for a better use of these pages. Thanks for the inspiration and good luck! You’ve got this! ❤
That is adorable ❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is amazing! I liked that book, but also want to reread it. I’ve wanting to start a habit tracker. This totally inspired me! You can do this! I can wait to see the results!!
Thank you for being vulnerable! I have been struggling to get back on track with habits that I know will improve my head space. I am going to incorporate this in my planner right away. Cheering you on from Oregon!
I am going to start using my habit trackers again after the holidays. I need to get back to basics. I am in that stay at home mom, pj day everyday, and I need to get it together. I have several large projects (we are cleaning out our basement to finish it) that I need to just work on a few minutes every day. Otherwise, I get overwhelmed.
I blogger I follow (Ordinary Karie) suggests to “practice” habits you want to begin in the new year in the month of December to set yourself up for success with NO PRESSURE. And it’s FABULOUS! Even just jotting down habits you want to begin in January and putting it somewhere you see it daily is a great way to program our minds. If you read a habit that you can’t implement at that moment, that’s OK, say a positive affirmation out loud to yourself about it. You’ll be shocked how many times you’ll think, “I can totally do this one today” and take action. Even just one success a day is.....SUCCESS. Don’t underestimate the power of tiny steps done repeatedly. 😊
You will do it I have faith in you ❤😊
I’ve been wanting AND needing to do this. WOW you did a great job. I wish you luck and look forward to seeing your success.
I like the supergoop face sunscreen. I get mine at Ulta and it’s a great primer for makeup to.
Just finished watching this and going to try to use the classic size and start in January
Trying to figure how to put a whole year on one layout instead of just one month so I can see a yearly view
Probably won’t happen because for one our habits Change.
You will accomplish this goal this month! Go girl
I’d love to see you do A Day in the Life videos based on your list in this video.
I’d like that too but man, that sounds like a lot of work lol
I second this! 🎉 It can be completely unedited and just stop/go, record on the fly, no worries. I love just seeing real life-blunders and successes alike.
This is a great Idea! I am going to do this with you!!! You've got this!!!
Needed this!!!! Ty.
About sunscreen...for the last few years I've been getting Korean brand sunscreen from YesStyle. My current one is from Beauty of Joseon. I've tried a few different brands and they have all been good. (Also, YesStyle has some interesting stickers sometimes.)
I'm so glad that you're doing this and I hope it helps.
This is such a good idea and inspired me so much. Thank you for sharing this an always sharing your life stuff with us it really does help when I hear them and think oh im not alone in this or that. I appreaciate you and your creative talent. You are and inspiration to me. Every time I see a video from you I feel like I'm seeing and listening to a friend. Thank you so much for that.
That’s my goal! I’m glad you feel that way. ❤️
Great idea for the teacher check list!!
Inspiring! Really want to do this! You got this Mary Ellen!
I'm sure you will do GREAT!!! We will do it together. I don't have such a detailed list as you have...at least not yet😁
Thank you for doing this!!!! I have a teacher planner that I will be using as my planner next year. I was trying to figure out what to do with this page in there.
