Afternoon Routine
Before Bed Routine
It Won’t Be Perfect
Can you believe that we’ve been practicing building our new habits for the past 25 days? Of course, they might not have been perfect. Maybe you went to bed with a sink full of dishes, stayed in your pajamas all day, or didn’t get to fold that laundry.
That’s ok!
All that matters is that you keep trying your best.
Read your post-it notes and control journal to remind you of the habits that you’re building.
Building habits does take work. It takes longer than one day, one week, or even a month. Just keep chipping away every day, and soon you’ll have an automatic routine that’ll help you get your home and life in order.
Flylady’s Testimonial
Today, Flylady wants us to read her personal testimonial on how she started developing her routines. One huge takeaway from her posts is that she didn’t create these routines overnight.
One quote that I’ll share from her post is that “we have to forget about the things we haven’t done and focus on what we can do today.”
So keep doing the best that you can every day.
Tip from Flylady
One tip that Flylady shares on her blog post for day 25 is to do the swish and swipe baby step whenever you need a restroom break. It only takes a few minutes, so why not swish the toilet and wipe the counters before you head out.
And next time you need to have a restroom break, go to a different bathroom.
