How to Be Consistent

Specifically with skin care, hair care, nutrition, and exercise routines.

Don't do it because you want to become beautiful, do it because you want to take care of your body. This mindset may not seem like a big deal when it comes to staying consistent with routines, but it makes more of a difference than you realise!

If you're doing it because you want to become beautiful/glow up/change yourself, then it will be really hard when you don't see the results you're looking for. On those hard days when you don't feel like doing it, you'll think things like "why am I doing this when I'm not getting results?" or "why am I doing this to look good for other people when I know I hate it?". Things like that will not only make you want to stop, it will also make you hate the process and the routine itself.

However, if you do it because you love yourself and want to take care of yourself, it's easier to push yourself to do it on those hard days. Instead of hating the process and giving up, you'll think "I know it's good for me, so I'll do it" or "I know I'll feel better after I do it". And, even if you don't feel like you can complete the whole routine, it's easier to push yourself to do an easier version of it or just do a little bit instead of the whole thing. That's because you know that doing a little bit will make you feel good and taken care of. It's also easier to tell when a routine isn't working for you because success is not determined by how you look, it's determined by how you feel. If you are hating a routine, that means you're doing it wrong and it needs to be changed in a way that makes you feel better. If you try a huge skin care routine but find out that you get overwhelmed by all the products, then simplify it. If you try running on the treadmill at the gym but start dreading the gym because you hate running, try a different form of cardio. If you cut something out of your diet but find that you're miserable everyday because of it, then consider reducing it instead of cutting it out completely. Your routines should feel good to you and be tailored to your preferences. That also helps you to stay consistent, because you are doing exactly what you want to do and what you are comfortable with.

I hope this advice helps! Stay consistent 🤍

Black

When you close your eyes against all kinds of hurtful things, this is the colour you see. When someone lets you down, yet again, this is the colour of your thoughts. When you see him kicking the dog, this is the colour of his heart. When the sun beats against you, it is the colour of your only companion. When she is fighting against death, with all her might, this is the colour of your hope. When…
