This audio series is a deeper look at Habits and how I deal with them in my everyday life
What is putting first things first look like? I did mention in the last episode that I want to speak to you about getting things done and I wanted to talk to you about the distinctions and the workflow and the systems that I am putting in place in my life that is helping make a difference to how I manage my tasks and how I prioritise my work. I feel like using this future episode. I want to implement this a bit longer in my journey and talk about it based on a longer period of time, but putting first things first is something that I am inspired to share today because as much as we do things sometimes that benefit our journey and it would feel that we are on the right track, there is always something underneath that we still need to discover about ourselves, and discover about growth. So what I want to share today is how I was able to just really understand, but when I say understand, the understanding that leads to a commitment to something and when you really commit to something, the power that comes from that and just making that promise to yourself, not to anyone else but to yourself - that this is what you want to achieve and this is how you are going to achieve it, so based on my journey there is an understanding for me that being a UX and UI designer is something that I want to take on as a career choice. So that is a priority for me, but while I am focused on that and investing my time in that there are a few things that I am forgetting that are a lot more important than that and when you have a few things that you see as important factors in your life, how do you deal with that? So, I have deleted some apps from my phone and it has been a month and I have gone back into the applications being there for less than an hour, just checking the notifications, checking messages that I may have missed, responding and I have now deleted the app again. So, I don’t have Instagram on my phone and I don’t have Youtube on my phone and from time to time I will go back into the apps like I said to check messages, but my first things first for my life in terms of a journey that I am on right now. The things that come as a main priority in my life from when my eyes open are two things that I am not super excited about and the reason I am not super excited about them is because of the context I have given them and what I am going to do is shift the way I see these two things and allow them to help me grow as a human being and to move me out of my comfort zone. So, when I wake up in the morning now that I don’t have Instagram or Youtube, there is a lot of available space in my day and I say to myself “What is going to move my business forward?” “What is going to move my projects forward?” I start diving in to those concepts. But what I was able to see is that towards the end of my day when I was dealing with those creative projects and my business ideas I was feeling a bit discouraged about how I dealt with my day. I still felt that there wasn’t enough done in a day, that I wasn’t achieving enough and it is a lot to do with two priorities in my life that are far more important than those things that I do and I am glad I have done them. Buying the samples for my clothing the design aspect of that, writing some things down to bear in mind about how I would like my business to look. Just those few little things. I am still o.k that I have done that. But what I do understand now is, that there is two priorities that need to be added to my morning and that is every single day....
