@@halieransom totally agree with you, I suffer anxiety too, and I can say that having a structured but simple routine helps a lot, keeps your mind busy
While I am currently working through a possible ADHD diagnosis, I tried calendar blocking in an effort to get more done each day but I discovered how much it enhanced my already inflexible temperament because (by nature) it is really tough to adhere to a strict schedule...you can't control your environment 100%. So I have recently adopted a routine very similar to yours, where I check in with myself about once every 1-2 hours to see what task is best to do at that particular moment, and I feel a lot less anxiety as a result. It is amazing just how much the feeling of anxiety can make any task take 10x longer to complete. This is a very helpful video...thank you so much!
GREAT CONTENT!! Let me just share to these quotes that I like, "Focus on being productive instead of busy." -Tim Ferriss and "Sometimes, things may not go your way, but the effort should be there every single night."
this is such a wake up call. Here I am in bed at 12am thinking about how to start the week, what routine to follow, how to get things done and just stressing out. it was so relatable when she said that she thought she was just "lazy". It's a very difficult fact to accept that not everyone's personality is built to follow a set routine and for some people to be "productive" they just need to go with the flow. Me being one of them, this video really gave me hope and a new and positive outlook towards "routines" *I'll try to follow this and update if it works for me!*

@Bree Lewis Try turning your alarm off on days when you have very less stuff to do in the mornings, and while sleeping just think that you have to wake up early tomorrow. I'm sure if you try this for 2-3 weeks you could also wake up on your own...
Bree Lewis try to do this: Monday alarm, Tuesday not, Wednesday alarm and so on. If you also go to sleep around the same time every night, your body will find a rhythm :)
This is literally genius. Wow. My mind is BLOWN. Thank you SO much for making this video. I find myself being super strict and down on myself when I don't meet my own inflexible standards, and this is the perfect antidote. I am a perfectionist and I feel this will be so helpful in helping me listening to my body and practicing self-compassion while also prioritizing the things I need to get done. I cannot thank you enough.
In a world where people on the internet (and society in general) are always "forcing" or "influencing" others to get up as earlier as possible to be successful, it actually makes me happy when I see a video like this. The world will be a much better place when we all understand that even tho "we are one", connected somehow, and going through so many things in our personal lives, we are also so different from each other, and that’s the beauty of everything. Definitely connect with ourselves and with our own flow is the key to everything. Thank you for sharing that with us 🥰
Loved this reflection Camila! I personally feel that there is no ¨one-solution-fits-all¨. I sometimes read comments like: ¨this would not at all work for me¨. And I feel that THAT IS THE POINT haha. No routine, set of habits or steps will work for everyone. Thanks for your comment, hope you have a nice day😊 ❤️
I think everyone has to try out what suits the most. Some like a strict schedule, some don't,some rise early, some late. The most important thing ist that we value and accept each other the way we are.
I think many people using this video for their excuses to being lazy. I don't know if someone wake up 11am then how their life would be healthy? Yeah in past I used to go to bed at 2 am & get up at 10am. That is so unhealthy. If your work is at night then you can do that but no routine thing is rubbish. You have to keep a decent routine. At least your bed time & wake up time should be fixed.
@@romominiki1694 I agree! I used to have a fucked up sleep schedule and I didn’t like it either. I’d rather sleep early and wake up early. I personally feel better with that nowadays. But I was able to change that because I wanted and because I realized it wasn’t doing me any good. That’s was my perception. I didn’t do it because someone told me I had to. And I feel like real change comes from within. That’s what I meant. One size does not fits all. It’s sick to force someone to change if they’re simply not there yet. And if there is something the media and the society does is to tell everyone what’s good and what’s not good for everyone. We should be the ones in charge and able to decide that, and also able to take the responsibilities of our own choices :)

Omgg just a month ago I was feeling so tired & overworked. And then I get ‘what I thought’ was lazy (waking up around 10-11 instead of 8) and then choose what I want to do first, felt great and yes I get more things done but somehow I still kinda feel shit cos I woke up soo late and took more breaks. Thank you for this video so glad I clicked on it thanks for reassuring me :’)
I tried your routine for the first time today and WOW! I got up without an alarm, got dressed (didn't make bed like I usualy do), didn't write down all my small daily routines--just did them, and I've been busy and full of energy all day! I think youre on to something --at least for people like me who just need reminders of appointments, events, and things that are time sensitive and must be done before a deadline that I might forget if I don't write it down. I felt so much more relaxed and present in everything I was doing. By taking the pressure off myself toget as much done in as little time as possible, I got more done than I usually do! Instead of being rigid and overwhelmed, I just kept "doing the next thing." It felt so much more organic and mindful to get things done like that. I'll have to go back to see if I did something in every category (except exercise, which is a real challenge bc I don't like it). Anyway, just wanted you to know your presentation style and simple routine method helped me so much. Thank you so much! I also loved the tour of your grandma's apartment. I would love to see you do more apartment tours similar to hers. That is, apartments that make the most out of small 1 or 2 BR apartments like many of us seniors live in! It was so calming and relaxing to watch and listen to. I love the way everything in her apartment looks so neat, clean and orderly. She has everything she really needs/loves within easy reach without having a lot of unnecessary items taking up visual space. There are places for the eye to rest! She's my hero! I was inspired to make several small changes today to make my own apartment look and feel more peaceful. Please make more of these! PS-Love your music videos, too!
Omg just what i needed!! I’ve seen a lot of videos like this where TH-camrs would usually wake up at 5AM and have consistent morning routines and have tasks plotted per hour and i think its unrealistic for most of us :( subscribed to ur channel!
When I was younger I completed tasks as assigned and stayed up late until my nose bled. I now let myself spice things up by procrastinating a little and once I feel like doing said things I just do them organically.
Wow, I thought that it is only me who feel unomotivated and still figuring out the way. Thank you so much for your sharing 'cause it matters a lot for me to organize my days lately :))
This video has been so valuable to watch right now in my life. I have found I have been pushing myself too much and not changing up my routine enough Thank you SO much - your filming is so beautiful
I can relate to this. Since I went freelance a few months ago I've tried planning my day down to every detail and sticking to strict routine. Then I realised it was taking the fun out of working for myself. I stopped setting an alarm and actually started getting up earlier! I schedule the most important things I have to do but don't time block them anymore and instead go with the flow.
I think I'm going to cry. I've been really struggling with getting things done for the past months and when searching for help on TH-cam, all of the videos would just say the same things over and over again, which was not helpful at all. I was doing (or at least really trying) to do everything they said... but all of the in depth planning, tracking, complicated routines just make life seem like one, gigantic, never-ending chore. I'm so glad I clicked on this video, I'm going to try to implement these tips into my life and hopefully be a happier person🥰
"Being your friend instead of being your enemy" woww this is how i've been treating myself as my enemy😔 feeling so overwhelmed and unmotivated your video made me think and see things in a different way thank you so so much this helped a lot🥰🤩
Your voice is so soothing and relaxing! Thank you for being real about your struggles and your gentle approach with yourself. So refreshing and wonderful. Thank you for sharing! 😊
I totally agree with this. I used to be strict with my everyday routines. It worked for awhile but then, it didn't. I felt bad whenever I wasn't able to do a thing at a specific time from my to do lists. Being flexible and intuitive made me much happier and productive.
I totally feel what you say. I tried to organize my daily tasks according to a schedule but it just stressed me out and I got nothing done. For few weeks now I started following something similar to what you are doing. I wrote down 4 main categories of things I need to do everyday. And I started to follow my rythms and it is working 😄😄. I even do extra things I was postponing for months.
I relate to this so much. I used to follow this method before, but I wasnt satisfied with it, so I started making timetables and tracking my habits with journal etc. and it didn't work for me at all, I felt so unhappy and demotivated because I wasnt ticking what I wanted to, I tried that for months, so I started doing this again, and it has helped me so much. Thank you for such a nice video
I have watched videos of other young ladies that pack their days in ways that it is overwhelming just to hear about it. I love the gentle, focused, and consistent manner in which you plan your days. Excellent!
This is excellent! I started doing this a while ago trying to survive depression and lately I started wondering if I needed to change things since I don’t have a specific schedule, so this video comes as a gift and reassurance that what I’ve been doing hasn’t been that wrong after all. Thank you!😊💕
I've recently adopted this "flexible and intuitive" approach to productivity and it really has done a great work for me. It has lessened my anxiety states. I think the key here is to not force yourself, and to find love in what you are doing through internal motivation 💖
This is very relatable right now. As I near the end of my college semester, I am in desperate need of a refresher. It has been four months that I have kept the same consistent routine of waking up at 6:30am, working out, and doing my schoolwork until 7:00pm, which I am so proud of, but I find myself wanting to rest more days than others. I have to remind myself to listen to my body, and that taking a few days off from my workout routine or waking up early is OK. It is an investment in my productivity and helps me re calibrate
I love how she talks about how not everything has to be perfect. As a perfectionist myself I really needed something like this to make me realize that life won't be always perfect. This is the first video of this channel that I have come across and I love this style of videos, keep up the good work
My god that was so relatable.... writing down tasks for each day & trying to accomplish them even though on most days I didn't feel like. It felt more pressurising than being productive. Finally I understood the 'mantra'.... just do whatever you most feel like to do & that way much work/things gets done. Thank you for this video. I feel I'm not alone in this struggle ❤️
I love this video because so many of us, like myself have the idea that when you’re unproductive, we just had the worst day ever and feel terrible about ourselves. I am so very exhausted, and I really needed this video as a reminder to relax and be flexible because it’s important for my mental and physical health 👌🏻🤍 thank you so much!
aww totally! I actually experience that myself. Some days I am not productive at all and I think that I somehow " lost the day". When actually I am taking some time to feel better, and be able to embrace my duties on the next day. Sending you a big hug Sarah! 🤗
I love the approach that we dont have to get out of bed immediately after waking up! What matters is getting everything done during the remaining of the day. Thanks for reminding us to be gentle to ourselves! 💖
See!!! This is what I needed to see. When I allow my body to wake up and then get to doing my task, I have a much better day. The time constraints and list are overwhelming and I don’t want to do school work, work, or podcast work. I’ve been so tired seeing 5am/6am because I’m trying not and I’m exhausted mid day. I don’t like coffee and they’re always drinking coffee in those videos 😂
Not even 3 minutes watching this video and I had to stop to comment that I already absolutely love everything I see and hear!! The aesthetics of your house, your pajamas, your accent, you not showing your face, the way you film, everything is so comfortable to watch!!!
I literally started doing this recently... and this video coming up gave me assurance that what I'm doing is right. Feels like you explained my mind really well.
Victoria, thank you for creating this. This gave me so much ease, peace, and acceptance for STILL being productive while being accepting of myself. As a new mom and entrepreneur, this truly calmed my anxiousness. Sending you SO much love and gratitude for sharing this powerful insight.
I’ve been going about my days like this recently as well and I feel great. I’ve gotten so much more done and like you said, everyday feels different. 🤍
Best vedio ever. This happens to me too all the time . When I force myself I felt burnt and exhausted. I also used to think that I was lazy, but I discover when I do what feels best it always ends being very productive and relaxing. No pressure
It is exactly what I realized too. When I started implementing "micro workouts" during my day, I just told to myself: Why not do it for all of my tasks?
Mornings is the most important part of my day. Having a relaxed morning, enjoying my hot chocolate with cinnamon while getting some sunshine and having breakfast with family is one one the things I look forward to every weekend. I agree with not rushing in the morning helps a lot in productivity. If I know that I have a busy day, I go to work early before anyone comes in to relax and organize my things. I then eat a really nice big breakfast - usually my comfort food and have a really nice cup of coffee. Its the perfect way to start my busy day.
Now, this is the best routine video I’ve ever seen! It is more mindful of your body and mind. We are not robots, we are human. Every day is different! Enjoy your life guys while getting what you need done :)
It’s really interesting to me how things work so differently for everyone! I read some comments on here after I watched the video & a lot of people said that sticking to a time schedule made them even more unproductive, just like it is for you, but it actually makes me more productive! 😊 after this video I did learn that maybe waking up at 8am isn’t the best option for me, so I’m gonna try to give myself more freedom in that aspect 🧡
only hearing this motivated me: rn im in a slump, getting none of my tasks done and kind of feeling totally left out of my own life. Its too hard for me to just stick to a set daily routine, I can't seem to plan it out. but this idea and way to structure your day kind of got me motivated to try it out too!
I’ve also been doing the intuitive approach of productivity. I’m listening to my body, and even if I’m not as productive as I would have wanted to, I don’t get bummed about it. I’m still productive, but I don’t label productivity as the amount of things I did anymore, but more like how I got better at them.
Ngl, out of all the morning routines I've been watching, this made me feel at ease somehow. Maybe bc of a possible ADHD, it's so difficult for me to follow a schedule, and I easily demotivate myself any time of the day. I make myself disappointed for not accomplishing the tasks planned. Regradless, I've still been swayed by the amount of morning routines since start of quarantine. That I just 'want' to bc everybody are doing it, even tho my body says 'NO'. It's so refreshing to watch this. An intuitive routine, I like it!
I am the same way! I find I’m happier and more productive when I allow myself to be flexible 💖 Love your videos btw! They are so helpful and aesthetically pleasing.
This is very helpful! I've lately been struggling with similar things (feeling like I always force myself to do stuff, being stuck in a daily routine that is always the same etc). So I'll def try this out! I especially like the idea witg the four main priorities / categories that can then be moved around however I feel :D thank you! Update : Been trying the four categories approach for a week now (with slightly adapted categories) and it's going really well so far :))
2023 here i am. I really wanted to change my routine and be more active. Aside that i gain weight and being lazy unproductive , i got easily overwhelmed with the things or idea i came up to do that makes me do nothing and 0 progress.. watching this makes me motivate. Thank you.
I love simplifying the routine and I guess I have been doing this without even realizing it! I think overall Im learning listening to my body is the best way!
Your presentation is so peaceful and simple, that it is almost hypnotizing, boosting my self image and convincing me that things are better than I thought. Thank You.
I really liked your new video, bcz i’ve been passing trough this, i am also strict to myself😂💔 but now i will be more chill and cool, i am so grateful for you victoria, you always make things simple💕
I used to schedule each and every minute of my day. And the result was I would become disappointed when I'm not able to follow my fixed schedule. So I decided to ditch the schedule and do things as I go.
Forwago program helped me not just to build a better-looking body, but to feel healthier and to have more energy. I wanted to share this because I think more people should find out about this amazing program. Thank you, Forwago!
Wow this has helped to change my perspective! Most often I find myself feeling guilty because I want to stay in bed longer or rest more and so I’ll push myself to be productive but because I’m always running on low energy it effects my mood and my productivity. One of my resolutions this year is to say ‘no’ more often so i can look after myself. What do you usually do when you stay in bed for a couple of hours after your alarm goes off?
Wow what a beautiful self care routine!! I resonate with it a lot because it’s mentally healthy to not follow a strict routine and have some flexibility in your life. Often life gets hectic and if you’re not flexible you might get anxious a lot and then feel depressed about it. It’s a struggle I know because I also have anxiety. Following a routine like yours is so much healthier mentally and physically! I subscribed to your channel because I relate to you a lot. Thank you for making this video 😊 I stopped writing long to-do lists a while ago because, like you said, I rarely followed them and I was just left feeling so disappointed with myself. Now I’m focused on loving myself more and enjoying the process of living!
I can relate to borrowing tops 😅 step one of minimalism is to get rid of yours, step two is to be happy about it... but step three is to raid somebody's closet for new looks 😁
Hahaha actually I am in total quarantine and had to leave my apartment 4 months ago without much time to pack anything. I just brought a couple summer pieces and it is quite cold
Hello, I'm your Russian subscriber. Great video! Psychologists say that the more you choose during the day, the more productive and self-confident you become. You just feel that you can control your life, not someone else)
This reminds me of the system, I don't remember what it's called. You take your to-do list and look at the first task and ask yourself"what do I want to do more than this task?" Find this task and do it, then after the next task that follows after the completed one ask again "what do I want to do more than this task?" Find it and do it and so on. I'm not sure if it's a good idea, cause you eventually you'll be doing the pleasant tasks.
I have to say that I see myself in this video, I watched many videos about productivity and routine and tried but they didn't work well. I realized that I'm not a kind of person who can stick in a fest routine. I did think that "being flexible" is "not productive". But no more now, thank you so much !
This was so different from almost every other video I watched on this topic. And it makes so much sense to me - almost freeing and still finding the appeal in productivity rather than thinking that I have to be productive. I started to see how it can be something I really look forward to. Subscribed.
Less stress also is vital to good health. That's one of the things to be careful about when it comes to getting distracted with news. There's only so much an individual can do. If you're sick or exhausted from pushing yourself too far you won't be able to be as productive anyhow. Just as Victoria says! I am fighting my social anxiety. It hinders me because start to become agoraphobic. Especially when watching the news too much! Easy to forget most people are kind, or at least just want to live their own lives. Being one's own friend is such good advice! 💞 Not easy to do that all the time.
Awesome! I think it depends on the person, i simply love routines, for example. I need them to have a nice day, but, as far as i'm concerned, people need to do what make them happyy and productive on their own wayss 🤩
This is honestly so true. I watched like a video that was about 40-50ish minute long on youtube and when I started reviewing notes for a&p I actually felt like doing it
This makes so much sense to me! My weekends are always much nicer when I relax a bit and take my time. It all makes sense now haha I wish I could do this daily, full time work kind of takes away the choice in routine though. One day!
I started doing something similar after I took up meditation recently. Maybe that's why I came across your video. Like you, I don't know how long I'll continue with it but as I work from home anyway, it suits me just fine. I've found I am more productive in my work and things just flow naturally. I've never felt more relaxed. Thanks for your video.
When I forced myself I gets me in a bad mood n I hate it .I rather take the day slow n let myself naturally get motivated. But a to do list does help me
I unconsciously did this these days. I do not know that it actually helps me but I just know that I am comfortable with my days. Thank you! Just recently watch your videos.

As someone with anxiety and ocd, structure and routine makes me feel so much better. Balance is key.

@Bree Lewis Try turning your alarm off on days when you have very less stuff to do in the mornings, and while sleeping just think that you have to wake up early tomorrow. I'm sure if you try this for 2-3 weeks you could also wake up on your own...
You are lucky! Make the most of "no alarm clock days" 😄 not possible with kids around 😉
Bree Lewis try to do this: Monday alarm, Tuesday not, Wednesday alarm and so on. If you also go to sleep around the same time every night, your body will find a rhythm :)
This is literally genius. Wow. My mind is BLOWN. Thank you SO much for making this video. I find myself being super strict and down on myself when I don't meet my own inflexible standards, and this is the perfect antidote. I am a perfectionist and I feel this will be so helpful in helping me listening to my body and practicing self-compassion while also prioritizing the things I need to get done.

No routine, set of habits or steps will work for everyone. Thanks for your comment, hope you have a nice day😊 ❤️

At least your bed time & wake up time should be fixed.
@@romominiki1694 I agree! I used to have a fucked up sleep schedule and I didn’t like it either. I’d rather sleep early and wake up early. I personally feel better with that nowadays.
But I was able to change that because I wanted and because I realized it wasn’t doing me any good. That’s was my perception. I didn’t do it because someone told me I had to.
And I feel like real change comes from within.
That’s what I meant.
One size does not fits all.
It’s sick to force someone to change if they’re simply not there yet. And if there is something the media and the society does is to tell everyone what’s good and what’s not good for everyone.

Omgg just a month ago I was feeling so tired & overworked. And then I get ‘what I thought’ was lazy (waking up around 10-11 instead of 8) and then choose what I want to do first, felt great and yes I get more things done but somehow I still kinda feel shit cos I woke up soo late and took more breaks. Thank you for this video so glad I clicked on it thanks for reassuring me :’)
I tried your routine for the first time today and WOW! I got up without an alarm, got dressed (didn't make bed like I usualy do), didn't write down all my small daily routines--just did them, and I've been busy and full of energy all day! I think youre on to something --at least for people like me who just need reminders of appointments, events, and things that are time sensitive and must be done before a deadline that I might forget if I don't write it down. I felt so much more relaxed and present in everything I was doing. By taking the pressure off myself toget as much done in as little time as possible, I got more done than I usually do! Instead of being rigid and overwhelmed, I just kept "doing the next thing." It felt so much more organic and mindful to get things done like that. I'll have to go back to see if I did something in every category (except exercise, which is a real challenge bc I don't like it). Anyway, just wanted you to know your presentation style and simple routine method helped me so much. Thank you so much!
I also loved the tour of your grandma's apartment. I would love to see you do more apartment tours similar to hers. That is, apartments that make the most out of small 1 or 2 BR apartments like many of us seniors live in! It was so calming and relaxing to watch and listen to. I love the way everything in her apartment looks so neat, clean and orderly. She has everything she really needs/loves within easy reach without having a lot of unnecessary items taking up visual space. There are places for the eye to rest! She's my hero! I was inspired to make several small changes today to make my own apartment look and feel more peaceful. Please make more of these! PS-Love your music videos, too!
Omg just what i needed!! I’ve seen a lot of videos like this where TH-camrs would usually wake up at 5AM and have consistent morning routines and have tasks plotted per hour and i think its unrealistic for most of us :( subscribed to ur channel!
When I was younger I completed tasks as assigned and stayed up late until my nose bled. I now let myself spice things up by procrastinating a little and once I feel like doing said things I just do them organically.
Wow, I thought that it is only me who feel unomotivated and still figuring out the way. Thank you so much for your sharing 'cause it matters a lot for me to organize my days lately :))
aww thank you so much for your comment. And don't worry, you are not alone! Big hug for you 🤗
@@simplevictoria wow thankyou 💛 🤗
This video has been so valuable to watch right now in my life. I have found I have been pushing myself too much and not changing up my routine enough
Thank you SO much - your filming is so beautiful
You're so welcome! ♥️ really glad you liked it my friend
LOVE seeing a productivity vid from someone who recognises that night owls exist!
I can relate to this. Since I went freelance a few months ago I've tried planning my day down to every detail and sticking to strict routine. Then I realised it was taking the fun out of working for myself. I stopped setting an alarm and actually started getting up earlier! I schedule the most important things I have to do but don't time block them anymore and instead go with the flow.
Such a great approach Rebecca! Sending you a big hug and wishing you all the best 🤗
I think I'm going to cry. I've been really struggling with getting things done for the past months and when searching for help on TH-cam, all of the videos would just say the same things over and over again, which was not helpful at all. I was doing (or at least really trying) to do everything they said... but all of the in depth planning, tracking, complicated routines just make life seem like one, gigantic, never-ending chore.
I'm so glad I clicked on this video, I'm going to try to implement these tips into my life and hopefully be a happier person🥰
🖤 I hope you can feel better my friend! sending you a hug
@@simplevictoria ❤thank you
"Being your friend instead of being your enemy" woww this is how i've been treating myself as my enemy😔 feeling so overwhelmed and unmotivated your video made me think and see things in a different way thank you so so much this helped a lot🥰🤩
♥
Your voice is so soothing and relaxing! Thank you for being real about your struggles and your gentle approach with yourself. So refreshing and wonderful. Thank you for sharing! 😊
I totally agree with this. I used to be strict with my everyday routines. It worked for awhile but then, it didn't. I felt bad whenever I wasn't able to do a thing at a specific time from my to do lists. Being flexible and intuitive made me much happier and productive.
❤️☺️
I love the way you distinguish between choosing and forcing yourself to do something.
The editing in this video is insanely cool!
awww thank you Camila!! it means a lot to me 🤗
I totally feel what you say. I tried to organize my daily tasks according to a schedule but it just stressed me out and I got nothing done. For few weeks now I started following something similar to what you are doing. I wrote down 4 main categories of things I need to do everyday. And I started to follow my rythms and it is working 😄😄. I even do extra things I was postponing for months.
so glad to hear that my friend! Contrary to what we feared, we actually accomplish more. Same here haha 🤗
I relate to this so much. I used to follow this method before, but I wasnt satisfied with it, so I started making timetables and tracking my habits with journal etc. and it didn't work for me at all, I felt so unhappy and demotivated because I wasnt ticking what I wanted to, I tried that for months, so I started doing this again, and it has helped me so much. Thank you for such a nice video
Oh I totally feel you haha. Thank you so much for the positive energy 🤗
I have watched videos of other young ladies that pack their days in ways that it is overwhelming just to hear about it. I love the gentle, focused, and consistent manner in which you plan your days. Excellent!
This is excellent! I started doing this a while ago trying to survive depression and lately I started wondering if I needed to change things since I don’t have a specific schedule, so this video comes as a gift and reassurance that what I’ve been doing hasn’t been that wrong after all. Thank you!😊💕
Sometimes not scheduled time is best scheduled time. I love your videos sister!
I've recently adopted this "flexible and intuitive" approach to productivity and it really has done a great work for me. It has lessened my anxiety states. I think the key here is to not force yourself, and to find love in what you are doing through internal motivation 💖
❤️☺️ It makes me really happy to hear that my friend! Hope you have a great day today
This was by far THE most practical and honest video i ever watched on this topic
♥
This is very relatable right now. As I near the end of my college semester, I am in desperate need of a refresher. It has been four months that I have kept the same consistent routine of waking up at 6:30am, working out, and doing my schoolwork until 7:00pm, which I am so proud of, but I find myself wanting to rest more days than others. I have to remind myself to listen to my body, and that taking a few days off from my workout routine or waking up early is OK. It is an investment in my productivity and helps me re calibrate
I love how she talks about how not everything has to be perfect. As a perfectionist myself I really needed something like this to make me realize that life won't be always perfect. This is the first video of this channel that I have come across and I love this style of videos, keep up the good work
That paper Crushing ASMR is all I need in my life.
hahaha 😂
My god that was so relatable.... writing down tasks for each day & trying to accomplish them even though on most days I didn't feel like. It felt more pressurising than being productive. Finally I understood the 'mantra'.... just do whatever you most feel like to do & that way much work/things gets done. Thank you for this video. I feel I'm not alone in this struggle ❤️
I love this video because so many of us, like myself have the idea that when you’re unproductive, we just had the worst day ever and feel terrible about ourselves. I am so very exhausted, and I really needed this video as a reminder to relax and be flexible because it’s important for my mental and physical health 👌🏻🤍 thank you so much!
aww totally! I actually experience that myself. Some days I am not productive at all and I think that I somehow " lost the day". When actually I am taking some time to feel better, and be able to embrace my duties on the next day. Sending you a big hug Sarah! 🤗
That is how I like to live my life ❤️✨❤️✨ listening to my body and my mood everyday, things happen easily and without much effort ✨❤️✨
such a nice approach 🤗
I love the approach that we dont have to get out of bed immediately after waking up! What matters is getting everything done during the remaining of the day. Thanks for reminding us to be gentle to ourselves! 💖
See!!! This is what I needed to see. When I allow my body to wake up and then get to doing my task, I have a much better day. The time constraints and list are overwhelming and I don’t want to do school work, work, or podcast work.
I’ve been so tired seeing 5am/6am because I’m trying not and I’m exhausted mid day. I don’t like coffee and they’re always drinking coffee in those videos 😂
🖤
This video made my anxiety for today disappear, I feel safe and comfortable to do the things I need to complete :)
aww I am sending you a big hug!😊 ❤️
Not even 3 minutes watching this video and I had to stop to comment that I already absolutely love everything I see and hear!!
The aesthetics of your house, your pajamas, your accent, you not showing your face, the way you film, everything is so comfortable to watch!!!
Thank you victoria! Nice and helpful as always. Your dog is so sweet!
aww so happy you liked it my friend! And thank you so much for supporting my work on Patreon. It means the world to me ❤️
I literally started doing this recently... and this video coming up gave me assurance that what I'm doing is right. Feels like you explained my mind really well.
Had a feeling that this is the right recommendation youtube has done for the start of the year! 🥰
Victoria, thank you for creating this. This gave me so much ease, peace, and acceptance for STILL being productive while being accepting of myself. As a new mom and entrepreneur, this truly calmed my anxiousness.
Sending you SO much love and gratitude for sharing this powerful insight.
I’ve been going about my days like this recently as well and I feel great. I’ve gotten so much more done and like you said, everyday feels different. 🤍
You got this! ❤️
I totally agree with you. I love to do things while I’m enjoying . Even if I’m not gonna finish them all.
But i want to feel happy and relaxed
I really do appreciate the editing & the whole esthetics of this video. Thank you for the work you've put in it 🙂 Greetings!
awww Thank you too!😊 you are very sweet
Best vedio ever. This happens to me too all the time . When I force myself I felt burnt and exhausted. I also used to think that I was lazy, but I discover when I do what feels best it always ends being very productive and relaxing. No pressure
♥
It is exactly what I realized too. When I started implementing "micro workouts" during my day, I just told to myself: Why not do it for all of my tasks?
♥️
I love a simple routine as well. I love to check news/emails, eat a breakfast, do skincare and get dressed (same for my daughter).
Being gentle with yourself, best tip 💙
😊 ❤️
Mornings is the most important part of my day. Having a relaxed morning, enjoying my hot chocolate with cinnamon while getting some sunshine and having breakfast with family is one one the things I look forward to every weekend.
I agree with not rushing in the morning helps a lot in productivity. If I know that I have a busy day, I go to work early before anyone comes in to relax and organize my things. I then eat a really nice big breakfast - usually my comfort food and have a really nice cup of coffee. Its the perfect way to start my busy day.
love your routine! seems super cozy. Thanks for sharing❤️
Cant wait your videos are always so calming 😊, love the red lipstick.
Now, this is the best routine video I’ve ever seen! It is more mindful of your body and mind. We are not robots, we are human. Every day is different! Enjoy your life guys while getting what you need done :)
It’s really interesting to me how things work so differently for everyone! I read some comments on here after I watched the video & a lot of people said that sticking to a time schedule made them even more unproductive, just like it is for you, but it actually makes me more productive! 😊 after this video I did learn that maybe waking up at 8am isn’t the best option for me, so I’m gonna try to give myself more freedom in that aspect 🧡
Ya me too having a routine in lockdown keeps me sans
th-cam.com/video/p80H6i5_OVY/w-d-xo.html
only hearing this motivated me: rn im in a slump, getting none of my tasks done and kind of feeling totally left out of my own life. Its too hard for me to just stick to a set daily routine, I can't seem to plan it out. but this idea and way to structure your day kind of got me motivated to try it out too!
I dont use a alarm anymore... My cat likes to do that job! 🤣
You’re my hero. Thank you for reminding me to be more gentle and not so hard on myself.
omg you are so kind! thank you❤️
I’ve also been doing the intuitive approach of productivity. I’m listening to my body, and even if I’m not as productive as I would have wanted to, I don’t get bummed about it. I’m still productive, but I don’t label productivity as the amount of things I did anymore, but more like how I got better at them.
Love this approach Isabell! Thank you so much for sharing! 🤗
Ngl, out of all the morning routines I've been watching, this made me feel at ease somehow.
Maybe bc of a possible ADHD, it's so difficult for me to follow a schedule, and I easily demotivate myself any time of the day. I make myself disappointed for not accomplishing the tasks planned.
Regradless, I've still been swayed by the amount of morning routines since start of quarantine. That I just 'want' to bc everybody are doing it, even tho my body says 'NO'. It's so refreshing to watch this. An intuitive routine, I like it!
❤️
I am the same way! I find I’m happier and more productive when I allow myself to be flexible 💖
Love your videos btw! They are so helpful and aesthetically pleasing.
Love that! you are so kind, thank you! 🤗
Finally!Someone said it!not everyone is an early bird and it's ok to do the things according to your inner voice.Thank you for that video:))
This is very helpful! I've lately been struggling with similar things (feeling like I always force myself to do stuff, being stuck in a daily routine that is always the same etc). So I'll def try this out! I especially like the idea witg the four main priorities / categories that can then be moved around however I feel :D thank you!
Update : Been trying the four categories approach for a week now (with slightly adapted categories) and it's going really well so far :))
Glad it was helpful! 🤗 thank you so much for letting me know!!
2023 here i am. I really wanted to change my routine and be more active. Aside that i gain weight and being lazy unproductive , i got easily overwhelmed with the things or idea i came up to do that makes me do nothing and 0 progress.. watching this makes me motivate. Thank you.
I love simplifying the routine and I guess I have been doing this without even realizing it! I think overall Im learning listening to my body is the best way!
great approach Nikki!! 🤗
Your presentation is so peaceful and simple, that it is almost hypnotizing, boosting my self image and convincing me that things are better than I thought. Thank You.
I really liked your new video, bcz i’ve been passing trough this, i am also strict to myself😂💔 but now i will be more chill and cool, i am so grateful for you victoria, you always make things simple💕
your welcome my friend! ♥️
Taking it easy and reminding myself that I did all I could with the energy I had brings home the peace for me. Thanks for sharing.
I used to schedule each and every minute of my day. And the result was I would become disappointed when I'm not able to follow my fixed schedule. So I decided to ditch the schedule and do things as I go.
😊 ❤️
Forwago program helped me not just to build a better-looking body, but to feel healthier and to have more energy. I wanted to share this because I think more people should find out about this amazing program. Thank you, Forwago!
The most important ingredient is self love and self compassion 🥰❤️ this is a lot like my own routine !!!
For sure!!! Love this❤️☺️
What a beautifully crafted video! I love the shot of the dog, he is adorable!
Thanks my friend! 🤗
Wow this has helped to change my perspective! Most often I find myself feeling guilty because I want to stay in bed longer or rest more and so I’ll push myself to be productive but because I’m always running on low energy it effects my mood and my productivity. One of my resolutions this year is to say ‘no’ more often so i can look after myself. What do you usually do when you stay in bed for a couple of hours after your alarm goes off?
Wow what a beautiful self care routine!! I resonate with it a lot because it’s mentally healthy to not follow a strict routine and have some flexibility in your life. Often life gets hectic and if you’re not flexible you might get anxious a lot and then feel depressed about it. It’s a struggle I know because I also have anxiety. Following a routine like yours is so much healthier mentally and physically! I subscribed to your channel because I relate to you a lot. Thank you for making this video 😊 I stopped writing long to-do lists a while ago because, like you said, I rarely followed them and I was just left feeling so disappointed with myself. Now I’m focused on loving myself more and enjoying the process of living!
This video really help me with the accumulation of to-do list! Love it🥰
I feel so seen and understood with you finding that you are more productive when you wake up later. Life for us night owls hurts.
I can relate to borrowing tops 😅 step one of minimalism is to get rid of yours, step two is to be happy about it... but step three is to raid somebody's closet for new looks 😁
Hahaha actually I am in total quarantine and had to leave my apartment 4 months ago without much time to pack anything. I just brought a couple summer pieces and it is quite cold
Hello, I'm your Russian subscriber. Great video!
Psychologists say that the more you choose during the day, the more productive and self-confident you become. You just feel that you can control your life, not someone else)
This reminds me of the system, I don't remember what it's called. You take your to-do list and look at the first task and ask yourself"what do I want to do more than this task?" Find this task and do it, then after the next task that follows after the completed one ask again "what do I want to do more than this task?" Find it and do it and so on. I'm not sure if it's a good idea, cause you eventually you'll be doing the pleasant tasks.
it might not work for everybody! But it is helping me and that is why I decided to share
I have to say that I see myself in this video, I watched many videos about productivity and routine and tried but they didn't work well. I realized that I'm not a kind of person who can stick in a fest routine. I did think that "being flexible" is "not productive". But no more now, thank you so much !
so glad you found my video relatable! Sending you a big hug!! 🤗
Thank you so much! This video is exactly what I needed. Thanks! 😁
Glad you liked it! 🤗
This was so different from almost every other video I watched on this topic. And it makes so much sense to me - almost freeing and still finding the appeal in productivity rather than thinking that I have to be productive. I started to see how it can be something I really look forward to. Subscribed.
If I watch one more "trying to be productive video" I swear am going to go insane
Sameee
I do that too! I cherish my days and my work and my studying and I prioritize rest and self care
Just discovered this channel! Love the msg ❤️
Thanks my friend! 🤗
Less stress also is vital to good health. That's one of the things to be careful about when it comes to getting distracted with news. There's only so much an individual can do. If you're sick or exhausted from pushing yourself too far you won't be able to be as productive anyhow. Just as Victoria says!
I am fighting my social anxiety. It hinders me because start to become agoraphobic. Especially when watching the news too much! Easy to forget most people are kind, or at least just want to live their own lives.
Being one's own friend is such good advice! 💞 Not easy to do that all the time.
Hey
It's amazing that I recently felt it with myself 🤩
This is really a unique video 🥰
aww Thank you! Hugs! ♥️
Awesome! I think it depends on the person, i simply love routines, for example. I need them to have a nice day, but, as far as i'm concerned, people need to do what make them happyy and productive on their own wayss 🤩
❤️❤️❤️
If you are reading this I hope you live your best life and find happiness in everything you do❤
Omg you are so kind! the same to you 🤗
@@simplevictoria Thank you 😊
This is honestly so true. I watched like a video that was about 40-50ish minute long on youtube and when I started reviewing notes for a&p I actually felt like doing it
This makes so much sense to me! My weekends are always much nicer when I relax a bit and take my time. It all makes sense now haha I wish I could do this daily, full time work kind of takes away the choice in routine though. One day!
I started doing something similar after I took up meditation recently. Maybe that's why I came across your video. Like you, I don't know how long I'll continue with it but as I work from home anyway, it suits me just fine. I've found I am more productive in my work and things just flow naturally. I've never felt more relaxed. Thanks for your video.
When I forced myself I gets me in a bad mood n I hate it .I rather take the day slow n let myself naturally get motivated. But a to do list does help me
❤️
I unconsciously did this these days. I do not know that it actually helps me but I just know that I am comfortable with my days. Thank you! Just recently watch your videos.
❤️
