Its settled. Ill live in Michelle World. - When I Grow Up

Its settled. Ill live in Michelle World. - When I Grow Up MICHELLE WORLD: I take the time blocks Ive created for myself and rework them so theres more free time/me time. I view my schedule as a guidepost and not a steel cage. I take responsibility for what needs to be accomplished the structure I set for myself, but I give myself a freakin break and allow some flexibility for The Good/Important Stuff. I take time for myself view that time as not a luxury but a necessity. I dont put things (shoes, clothes, dishes, papers) down I put them away. I have a lot of freakin fun! I let go of the tasks that arent really working for me now. I put them somewhere for a rainy day, or a different time. If I hesitate in doing so, I dig deep to see why and possibly how I can fit this into my life. I realize theres no time for the bullshit and let it go, too. I only concern myself with pleasing the people who mean something to me. When I realize something is broke and I have the tools to fix it, I follow those steps for just a day. Then I can see what works for me and throw out what doesnt. Rinse repeat. I ask others for support. As you can tell from my post yesterday, I was being a bit tough/down on myself about all the things Ive been looking to change that I wasnt following through on. I know I couldnt live in Ideal World just like I couldnt live in Realistic World. Neither one of them would work for me. So, I decided to live in Michelle World a place where I can grow and thrive, be comfortable and relax, face resposibility and achieve my dreams. I started to see what that place looked like for me and how I could get there. With a nudge from Merci Miglino, an ICA trainer who allowed me to be coached on structures during class last night, I saw how I can take all of these tools Ive put in place and make them un-scary. I saw how I had fear around them being too rigid as well as thrusting me into Responsibility World a little sooner than I was ready. When I recognized that fear shaped it in a more positive way (in coach speak its called reframing) I saw the possibilities. The possibility of not feeling like a chicken with her head cut off. The possibility of reaching my goals simply due to the fact that its scheduled into my calendar. The possibility that I dont need to spend 2 hours on a Saturday cleaning my time apartment. The possibility that I wont be stretching myself too thin and I can have more me time. The possibility that something was broke I have the tools to fix it. The possibility that I can still be a carefree, silly grown-up and not a strict, librarian type of grown up. So now Im throwing this back to you (youre not off the hook that easily). What does [Your Name] World look like? What do you do there? What do you not do there? Leave me a comment Id love to hear about where you want to live!
