Ooooo.... "Food is not the boss of me." I could possibly use that one now, but I misused it in 1984. I felt that I lacked control and I was going through a self-loathing stage, and I knew the one thing I could control was food. So, I limited myself to eating a carton of yogurt and 6 crackers, skipping days in between. Fortunately, I only did this for a few weeks before a concerned friend knocked some sense into me.
Commenting on TH-cam videos is definitely one of my distractions, but I just can't help myself. One reason is that there of content creators I love supporting, the other reason is I just simply enjoy it; but I have at least been resisting the urge sometimes. 😅 I have so many alarms, trying to keep myself on track. Unfortunately, I don't give them the weight I should; likely because it's really all about getting me to a job I really need to replace. Maybe I could try breaking my morning into quarters, instead of having an alarm for getting up, getting into the shower, putting on my makeup, getting dressed, leaving for work. I'm going to think about that. I definitely need to do something different because my current alarm system is not working towards my best interest. This morning, I distracted myself from getting on the road by noon because, yesterday, I set a goal of doing the work that I've been learning in a membership group for conscious creation; and I decided to try setting up a small Facebook support group for accountability and encouragement. That was what I felt most passionate about this morning, so I started working on it. I came up with a name, a description, and created 3 posts. My goal tomorrow is to create a cover image and upload it. Still, while it is what I want to do, it's also a distraction from what I need to do, namely make more money. 🙄😏
Yep, me too! I'm really good at journaling when I'm angry.
