Overcoming Procrastination Habits

Overcoming Procrastination Habits

I don’t know about you but – Procrastination has always

been that ones thing that had me in its clutches – As a child

I’ve been told over and over again  “why put live it for

tomorrow what can be don today”  – why not tackle what

can be done today? – why not free up brain space? one of

the reasons people fall into to this vague belief of living

things for another dayoverwhelmed with all the things

that is  asking for our time and attention we think – ah will

l’ll do this tomorrow and tomorrow  turns  into next month

then next moth turns into a year and so on. Continue reading “Overcoming Procrastination Habits”

This is the year off great shifts  – something  I’ve been experiencing for sometime now – I’m sure you felt  the shifts happening in your life as well – lucky for you; I have cultivated  what I call a “tool kit” something I’ve spoken about through out the podcast episode { Elizabeth Magical Garden}  

But for now – I’ll name a few :

  • Consistent: as it helps build momentum and creates lasting positive habits.
  • Save money: knowing you have money set aside reduces anxiety about financial uncertainties

Study shows when there is a change of income – their food quality often suffers for several reasons: Continue reading “Eating – health on a dime!”

“Stop looking at the marketplace and start looking at the “gain”

Nowadays people are worried about money and how could they not be- with

gas prices at an all time high – don’t even get me started on the egg prices

Understanding the true meaning of life – “self awareness”

Understanding the true meaning of life – “self awareness 

Remember when 90’s r&b was hot back I’m the day – ah the good old day’s;

those we’re the  times when  people were what seem’s the happiest and

artists took the time to create music that shed light and love.

With the world now promoting Misery and doubt – it’s no wonder the world has

become such a lonely place- or is it?

The meaning of loneliness :

“Loneliness” : some type of life transition or

lifestyle choice that reduces the number of

perceived connections with other people, both

physically and emotionally :

The question posed ; what created the “loneliness

people are now feeling – in a would filled with social media one would think 🤔 people would be

anything but: think about it – social connection is just

a click away – with the massive upgrades of the cell phones people are staying

connected even more then before-  in my day – the only way you were able to

connected to your friends – was to go outside or have a sleep over; well that’s

if your partners were A) cool enough B) could afford such gatherings- A or B

wasn’t happening in my home due to my mom being a single parent- her mean

concern was  keeping us safe and putting food on the table; none the less I had

a great child hood – I’m proud to say.

  Walk into your “new life” with power!

 


Walk into your “new life” with power!

Now that spring is around the Conner we are all frost to look in our closet to

see what works as fashion tells what is no longer the it thing to were and

women in there 40’s and 50’s are still try to finger out how to get a good night

sleep;  with waking up in a “puddle of sweet” I’ll leave that for another blog post:

so what is it about the spring that has everyone filling  like kicking everything

they owned or loved at one time or anther that’s no longer works in there

closet? One of the things I’ve noticed in the few times I’d head out to the

stores;  everything pretty much looks the same –  what one would call  “fast

 

fashion” like your h&m’s,  Zara and so forth-  now before you get all up and

arm’s;  by no means am popping on these branded – I still have alot of pieces

from these brands that I  love. – as fear as fashion I believed I’ve picked in the

80’s and 90’s and if you were born in the 70’s you know what I mean.  the

“chuck julary” to the baggy – jeans were movies like boomerang t.v, shows like

 

martin were setting the tone when it came to street – wear; oh don’t get me on

the music can we say ” Don’t go chasing water falls by

TLC! I still  see remnants of “punk rock” and” hip-hop” in

my wardrobe if I’m being perfectly honest.

Many women in their 40s and 50s experience feeling stuck with fashion for several key reasons:

  • Changing Body Shape: Natural physical changes during this life stage can make previously reliable styles feel less flattering, leading to uncertainty about what works now.
  • Fashion Industry Focus: Most fashion marketing and trends target younger demographics, making it challenging to find age-appropriate yet stylish inspiration.
  • Identity Transition: This age brings significant life changes, causing women to question their personal style and how to express themselves authentically.
  • Societal Expectations: Conflicting messages about “age-appropriate” dressing versus staying trendy can create confusion and hesitation.
  • Limited Options: Many clothing lines don’t cater well to this age group, offering either overly young or matronly options with little in between.

Theses phase can be an opportunity to redefine personal style and embrace fashion that combines comfort, sophistication, and self-expression.

How ever this phase can be an opportunity to redefine personal style and embrace fashion that combines comfort, sophistication, and self-expression.

Breaking Free from Fashion Stagnation

Just because your in the second act of life doesn’t  men your not part of the

man stage! Despite what all the society may say; your  chic ! I remember a time

I stared to filling done about ageing especially  when menopause hit  like a

tone of breaks! It was no joke;  it left me feeling tired and unworthy no longer

filling like myself;  it wasn’t until I faced my on reality did I start to met my self

were Iwas at aka my new reality . No I’m not in my 20’s 30’s hack not even in

my 40’s and you know what  that’s OKAY –  I’m in my beautiful 50’s!  and

thank God for itand you should too no matter were you fall in the spectrum.

It’s just a number that society has manipulated to make a profit off you.

Fashion can still be fun; you can still shine with what you already have in your

closet. Think about it – most of the stuff there putting out in the stores; you

probably already have or had at one point or anther; you just need a little refresher that’s all ; so here are some helpful tip:

  • Experiment with Classics: Build a wardrobe of timeless pieces that can be styled in modern ways
  • Focus on Fit: Invest in quality tailoring to ensure clothes complement your current body shape
  • Mix High and Low: Combine investment pieces with trendy accessories to create fresh, age-appropriate looks
  • Trust Your Instincts: Choose clothes that make you feel confident, regardless of “age-appropriate” rules

“Aging is not lost youth but a new stage of opportunity and strength.” – Betty Friedan

The next time you start to daut yourself remind your self you are a bright and

shining star with the ability to light up the room; with your smile and you kin

seance of fashion and wisdom!

 

The End!
