Dear Jesus, Please take this Wheel....
OMG. Words could not be truer. Damn.
Here’s my little guide how to glow up in your life:
First, get your life together:
Organise and clean your home -Having clean home will make you feel better and lighter and therefore you will be more positive.
Have a life admin day -Write down all the stuff that needs to be done, all the appointments you need to get and everything that needs to be fixed. Then schedule in a day every month or every two weeks when you tick off these thing off your list.
Do your damn laundry
Create routines -They can be long and strict or short and very opened
Fight procrastination in all the ways you can
Take your mediaction and have regular health check ups
Now it’s time for mental health:
Make sure you eat and drink water regularly
Get a therapist if you feel like you need/want one
Practise your hobbies or find new ones
Listen to your favourite music
Meditate
Create a happy atmosphere for yourself -Buy plants and flowers, let your favourite music play in the background, let in as much ligh as you can.
Warm beverages
Be as positive as you can
Try to complain less
Don’t talk shit about people, especially not behind their back -You spread negative energy and hurt yourself in the process.
Say nice things to people, compliment them as much as you can -Being nice to poeple will affect your own mood for the better.
Talk about what you love, not what you hate
Get enough fresh air.
Glow up your mind!:
Read more books -Does not matter the genre
Watch movies and series
Learn new language -Even if it’s just a few words
Watch documents
Talk to people smarter than you
Try learning random fact every day
Find a new hobby
Think of ways to make your life better and help your surrounding -Minimalism? Zero waste? Vegetarian? It depends on you.
Find a new friend
Help people
And lastly the physical glow up:
Find out how much sleep you need and stick to it -Usually 8 hours are the norm
Play around with make up -You will fail and it might look wonky from the beginning. And maybe you won’t even like it. I want you to experiment.
Make sure to go make-up-less sometimes if you wear it often
Drink water -It won’t magically clear your skin completely but it will get better.
Wash your face in the morning and in the evening, but no soap if possible
Use as little skin products as you can -Sometimes less is more.
Lip balm
Eat vegetables every day -Every. single. day. It’s the best thing I have ever done for myself.
Eat oatmeal -It did wonders for my hair.
Stretch regularly
Exercise -Find something you have fun doing and do it as often as possible.
Avoid food with too much grease and sugar -You can have it but try to reduce it.
Prepare your outfit the night before -It gives you time to think about what you’ll wear and it’s nice to have it ready in the morning.
Get clothes you feel good and confident in
Get your dream hair colour! -Get crazy if you want
Learn to be comfortable with your body
Don’t shower every day -I know, I know… but listen… It’s actually much healthier for your skin to shower every other day and wash your hair even less. Plus it saves a lot of water.
Get a perfume -Have a scent
Get enough sun -You don’t have to be tan but getting sun on your skin is very healthy and it’s visible in other ways than tan.
Smile and spread joy
If you’re happy, show it -It’s contagious
Remember that beauty comes from within. That is why I put these tips in that order.
I hope I helped and have a great year!

tell us tips of how to be a confident woman
To be confident you need to be a self sufficient individual in ALL aspects, from your finances, personal growth and self sufficient in your self esteem (others opinions of you have little to no relevancy on how you view yourself, your self-perception comes entirely from within).
A confident woman stands up for what she believes in and is not easily persuaded from her opinions or values by people. She doesn't worry about pleasing others but about getting her business done and making sure her presence is felt, regardless of who likes it or not. She owns and takes space without being overbearing. She is on top of her game and is constantly looking for ways to outgrow the person she was the day before.
Confident women are quiet, they don't feel the need to call the attention or announce their moves because they have nothing to prove, she relies on her internal knowing that she is capable of achieving the goals in her life and the applause of an audience is not needed.
A confident woman is proactive on keeping her physical appearance very polished, from the way she dresses to her commitment to being fit and healthy, not in an attempt to attract attention, but as a way of improving herself because she knows that her sense of self will be higher is she looks and feels good.
A confident woman has a resilient mentality, if she falls, she stands back up. If she feels distressed, she gets her emotions out and allows herself to feel all the emotions that make her human, but after that she's ready to move on and not allow her sentiments to overpower her rationale.
Confident women aren't easily impressed, they know their worth and who they are, so they expect others to impress them, the power dynamics are usually in their favor.
Confident women are intellectually proficient, they read and are masters of different subjects. They know that their brain is one of their main assets, so they keep pushing themself to exercise their intellect by learning new things constantly.
I could go on and on, but these are the things that come to my mind at the moment 💗.
In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength,my song
This Cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love,what depths of peace
When fears are stilled,when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand.🍁
Imagine you were about to move into your dream house and then all of a sudden, everything fell through and you were forced to stay in your current house for another year. Rightfully so, you would be frustrated. But in that moment you have two choices: you can either spend the whole year complaining because you can no longer move into your dream house, or you can start to see your current house in a new way. That bedroom that seemed so boring? You can paint the walls. That kitchen that seemed outdated? You can change the knobs on the cabinet and replace the tiles on the floor. The living room that was nothing exciting? You can learn how to make new curtains or a new rug for the floor. You can start to appreciate and make the most of what was already there. ⠀ This is what it means to learn to be content with you have. Being content with what you have is not settling for what you have. It is learning to see what you already have in a way you might have otherwise overlooked. ⠀ Through contentment, God wants to show you the many beautiful and intricate details of what He is already doing in your life that you may have otherwise overlooked, had you only been focused on what you don’t have yet. ⠀ You may not have your dream house, your dream job, or your dream family yet, but by learning to be content with what you have, God wants you to see the beauty in the life He has already laid in front of you. ⠀ I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. - Philippians 4:11 ⠀ Written by @morganhnichols for #TheDevoCo
