    Dear Miss Morgan,
    Today has been such a chaotic but adventurous day. My train was cancelled , so my best friend dropped me off at the bus stop (she is so nice , I'm so lucky to have her!!🥰🥰) and then the bus driver didn't let me on the bus because it was too full , so I had to wait for the next one. On the bright side , the cherry blossoms are in full bloom now , so it's so nice to see them!! Do you have cherry blossoms in Portland too?
    Also , I've started bullet journaling this year , and it really helps to organize my day , avoid procrastination and it's so fun to decorate the pages. But I think what I like most about it is that I write a gratitude list , and it makes me feel so mindful and makes me realize how lucky I am. You're doing so great and being so positive , so keep going .💛💛
    Lots of love ,
    Tanisha

    I agree with you about winter. I don’t like to say depressed either but I can tell my mood shifts downward in the winter time. But the giddiness of the start of spring is so wonderful 🌻

    I chuckled as I watched the final segment of this video with Roo on the couch. I remember in the early days of your channel, he wasn't allowed on the couch. And now I see that he has made it his own. ~~grin~~ Beautiful video as always. I need to pick up The Book Thief. I heard a lot of good comments about it.

    I love that you know that you’re an artist with videography. Because it’s one thing to be an artist at something, and to know that you are an artist at something; and the fact that you claim that is so brilliant and so amazing because it’s true Morgan, you are an artist at what you do!! And to know that you are is so great for you! I’m so happy that you get to do what you love for a living!

    Hola, Morgan 🌻 I think that the line between feeling inspired and feeling envious is so thin that se could cross it very easy and forget that we only see a part of someone's life, the best part...your art si great, thanks for sharing it and remind us that there are more that we don't see 💞

    I just wanted to tell you, I've been enjoying your spotify 🎶 playlists SO much! And I'm never going back. I needed so much motivation to go through modules last night and I realized your Spotify link was always in your description box but I never got to try so I used the "💭" playlist to do modules and I haven't been THAT MUCH in the zone for such a long time 😌
    Thank you for making your playlists public, godsend for inspiration and casual magic ✨

    Beautiful video as always! P.S. I am in my 40's and I still put to much on my list & the balance fluctuates as you said. Thinking about things as "Seasons" in terms of my life has helped me put things a bit more in perspective as well. The more we grow, the more we change, and as we do that our circumstances change and then we need to learn balance all over again for our new selves and lives:) You're doing great, 1st step is always awareness & many do not grasp that, so you're ahead really :)

    Hola Morgan!!! Yes. You are right!!! Balancing work and health is vital in being an over all productive human being. We always need time for ourselves. I think the problem with most people is that we are always bombarded with constantly overcoming obstacles without taking time to evaluate ourselves. We need to regroup, think about who we are as people. This is why I love meditating, taking walks in the park where I could just let my mind wander in nature and think of the positive things I can do in life. I take life one day at a time. Love learning new things through reading or experiencing new stuff. I always make sure that I do my meditation, yoga and exercising in order to enhance my self esteem. Morgan, you have the right idea. Continue to be true to yourself. Give thanks to everyone and wish all a glorious day. Also, I wish you a happy weekend. Keep up the good work, amiga.

    The double To-do list is such a clever way of planning your day! Do you write the "realistic" one at some point during the day or at night? I'd love a tutorial for beginners on how to plan a to-do list that doesn't make me feel absolutely miserable! Color coding and alternating between mandatory and nourishing activities is such a great idea! I admire how mindful you manage to be, even when working late or when tasks end up taking longer than you expected. I'd love to listen to your podcast someday! Are you thinking about making one?

    Hi Mo! Your plant family is looking so healthy and happy 😍I also love to propagate my plants so I can offer them to friends later, it's a different feeling than gifting from the shop/nursery, it's more personal - that plant grew from my love and care, and so I am also giving that when I give the plant - that's how I feel 😊Monsieur Roo is just sooo adorableee!!! On the disclaimer you made about your videos, honestly, I see them as a reminder to capture the smaller but still precious moments and things in our daily lives. For me you don't portray an unrealistic picture of your life, you just choose to highlight those aspects, while, at the same time, staying true and sharing with us some of your lows. Sometimes, with such beautiful and well made videos, it can be easy to forget the real life behind the scenes, but I don't feel that with you. You inspire me so much and I honestly look up to you: you lift me up without toxic positivity, your videos are always a bright moment in my day (and it doesn't matter if it is a good day or a bad day), you make the mundane magical! Thank you, Friend ✨💛🌻

    Hello wonderful Mo, I didn't get in touch for a while, but as always I watched all the videos. How could I, I love them all. I've been thinking about how valuable it is what you do !!! Back when I discovered your channel in winter 2019, you reminded me again how important it is to live consciously. To make yourself aware every day of how much you should enjoy the many small and large things. How wonderful life is and that it is by no means a matter of course. Far, far too quickly, everyday life can make one forget that one pays too little attention to what could make one happy or satisfied. THANK YOU for giving me this present back then. You're the best ! Big Hugs and send you back love and light

    Sweet Morgan, one more kind, cozy and real video, thank you! At my time zone-Portugal, I get to see the video by friday, just what I need in the end of a hard work week. That idea of the list it's great, I'm going to try it! Learning balance it's a journey, having the awareness and intention of doing it is what able us to do it, but life is full of things to do, seasons, days, and a lot of variables, and sometimes it's not possible, and that's ok. And thank you for giving us the behind the scenes, I think it's important. Your videos are art, and a blessing my friend. Keep going, you are doing amazing, and we support you in the ways we can.

    This is the kind of balanced week I need, not just working hard 24/7. Since going back to work after our lockdown I've felt like that's the only thing I should do to make up for the past couple of months, even when it's my day off I am always go go GO! cleaning and doing work around the house instead of just taking even if just a few minutes for myself and read for a bit but watching you taking care of your plants definitely inspired me repot some of mine next time I have a free day! :)

      I totally get what you mean by overcompensating for the time not spent working! I don't know why we feel we need to work ourselves to exhaustion. I hope you're able to find some relaxation time ❤️

    I look forward to your Friday uploads. They bring much peace and creative inspiration! I’m currently in a season of my life where I am stuck in a job that I hate and trying to finish school without debt and watching you grow and live a life that you love reassures me that I will get to that point in my life. Soon. 😌 You’re doing great Morgan thank you for the authentic connection and beautiful videos! 🥰

    Your videos are incredible but your mental and physical health is first and foremost! Rest when you need it, friend 💛
    That being said, this video was so cozy and comforting! Beautiful shots and perfectly soundtracked! Repotting your plants gave me the motivation to tackle all my new plant babies 🪴

    I was looking forward to the weekend to watch your new video. It's always a very relaxing moment for me😊. I want to try the to do list idea, very useful for me because I tend to overload my day too, not realistic at all but it's a bad habit. Maybe as an idea for new content you could record a video on how you use books in your everyday. I know you've already showed it in your channel, but maybe sth more specific, like the process (how you use them to study Spanish) or cooking a recipe, paint, prepare some teas or herbal remedies...don't know, they're just random ideas. However, I really enjoy this "a week in my life videos"😊. You have such a fresh, honest and natural style, it's very unique and it's in all your videos, no matter what they are about. I think that's one of the reasons we all love your channel so much. 😊Saludos desde España🌻

    It‘s such a great idea with the two todo lists (ideal and relistic).
    I like the colour coding too and recognize that my whole list would be in work colour. 😮Time to change this!
    Best regards from Germany.

    Hi, sunshine ☀️ another great vlog, Mo! Like wind in our skin while standing next to the ocean!
    Another big comment of mine alert 🚨
    About time management, I too struggle with it. I always seem to have so much to do and so little time! So I’m planning my week and reviewing my to do list every day in the morning and I’m the afternoon on notion and writing my priorities on my planner so I have a good idea of what I need to focus on. Also, do you feel that you work so much on Mondays and Tuesdays and then when Wednesdays come you’re just tired and want a day off? I’ve been noticing this pattern over here, but I haven’t figured out a way to fix that just yet.
    About video ideas: I love your reading vlogs, and I love those videos in which people read other people’s favorite books! Maybe you could pick 1-3 books from someone you admire (dead or alive) and read them in the course of one-two weeks (or maybe a monthly project, I don’t know how is your reading speed, etc) (what I mean is do whats best for you!!!). So that could be an idea to try out

    • @MorganLong
      @MorganLong  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you so so much, Lari!
      I toottalllly hit the Wednesday rut. I usually try to listen toto a motivational podcast on Monday mornings to re-inspire me to get all of my work done and keep my energy up through the end of the week. My favorite podcast is Create Pep Talk.
      Thank you so much for your video suggestions-- they're really really good!
      Happy week, friend!
      Lots of love, Morgan

      @@MorganLong I will sure have to come up with ideas like your podcast one. I’ve noticed Wednesdays are my strongest reading day, and although it inspires me, it doesn’t make me want to act and work (on the contrary haha). I’ll look for one podcast and try it out. I’ll let you know someday

    This is the BEST way to start my Friday! I’ve been super burnt-out by work lately so it’s really nice to sit down with a cup of tea and relax while watching your video. I haven’t been keeping up with my habit of building a to-do list so I want to get back to that this week. Not so much because I need to get more done, but because I can hopefully use that list to have a little more balance between work and the rest of my life.

    As usual, your video has been an excellent company and the best way to finish what has been kind of a miserable day. Thank you! I wish I could join your Patreon to have more of your videos to enjoy, haha. :) But thank you for making free content here. I wouldn't be able to enjoy your beautiful, inspiring and relaxing videos otherwise.
    Thanks for your videos, your good wishes and all the nice things you share with us (specially, the honesty regarding how life really isn't perfect not even for you) and have a good week. :)
    Lots of love from Chile!
