Day 10 & Commitment During Lent

Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday, which is the first day of Lent and even though I am not planning on giving up eating meat or chocolate or social media, but I will be reducing it. And hopefully I can reduce my screen time because of that massively.

I do think it's more about commitment to one's self. But then again, maybe there is something I can completely cut out of my life for 40 days - excuses! I am making too many excuses for myself. For having lack of time or lack or motivation or lack of money. When you are stuck at home and can't really go out, then spending money shouldn't be on the list of to do things anyway. Or lack of time on reading or focusing on projects, when all I have right now is time!

But ok, on top of the commitment to myself, I posted yesterday (I will update it in a second), I will give up (read: reduce) screen time on my phone and no blue lights after 8pm. As well as no extra spending for next 40 days, just groceries, bills and savings. No excuses, I can do it!

And here it is - Commitment to myself during Lent (17th February - 3rd April)

I will continue to go for walks every morning

I will continue to cook for myself a nutritious and delicious meals while learning more about nutrition in general

I will focus on pursuing one of these every day - developing my business plan (with help of front of house hospitality course); learn how to be financially literate and earn extra money with side hustle; reduce my to do list by whether doing them or deleting them from the list forever

I will exercise every day (little FitOn workouts, Sun Salutations, 5K run or strength workouts)

I will reduce screen time, but will enjoy an occasional film, a good classic or an interesting documentary 

I will take time for myself to meditate, to my nails, have a shower or learn putting on make up

I will reach out to my family, my friends & my work colleagues

I will read books before sleep

I will stop making excuses and get on with doing things that I want to do

I will stop spending money I don't have
