In this segment, I briefly talk about the importance of isolation. 

In this episode, I briefly discuss the need to block the noise surrounding you and choose you first. 

An open diary about my ups and downs. I'm doing life with laughs and tears, and it is good. 

I am my loved ones' cheerleader. I make sure their chins up, I feed them with positive affirmation, and I listen, support, and love them to the best of my ability. Why don't I nourish my soul and body with greater love?

I enjoyed being in a routine, but it got to a point where I caught myself thinking about each part of it from sunrise to sunset. It was mentally exhausting. I felt stressed and overwhelmed. So, I tried a different approach. I went with the flow while getting my entire routine done. I’ve been moving down my list of things to do by doing them as they come. I pace myself.

It got to a point when I got bored of my home. My bedroom and living room became repetitive. I needed a change of environment. I could go for a ride or a walk, but I’ll always end up home. One morning the sun was out, and the weather felt just right. It was a Sunday late afternoon, and I wanted to be cozy at home. I made my bed in the morning, and since I didn’t want to undo it until it was time for me to go to sleep. I laid a blanket on the carpeted floor with a ton of pillows and opened the windows. I listened to music while I brainstormed a creative project.

I woke up feeling alive. I watched the sunrise and its colorful clouds. I made my bed, and I went about my day. I felt relaxed yet vibrant. At sunset, I washed the dishes, then I relaxed for the evening. I went to bed thinking it was a good day, and most importantly, I felt good. My mood that day made me long for that same feeling the following morning. Somewhat unconsciously, the next day, I caught myself tidying up my space as I did the day before. I’ve been doing so since then. The thought of not straightening up before turning the lights off for the night gives me an unfulfilling feeling. I have a routine, and the consistency makes me feel proactive.

Does it really take 21 days to form a habit?
