Why It Matters
We often get caught up in the relentless cycle of our to-do lists, right? We wake up, look at our responsibilities, and dive headfirst into the chaos of our day. But what if we flipped the script? What if instead of focusing solely on what we have to accomplish, we shifted our attention to how we want to feel throughout the week?
Step 1: Identify Your “To-Feel” Goals
What Are Your Desired Feelings?
Before you can shift your focus, you need to identify what feelings you want to cultivate in your life. Here are some examples to get you started:
Most People Miss This Tiny Morning Coffee Trick 🔥
- Joy: What brings you joy? Is it spending time with friends or indulging in a guilty-pleasure TV show?
- Calm: How can you create a sense of calm? Maybe it’s through yoga, meditation, or simply enjoying a quiet cup of tea.
- Confidence: What makes you feel confident? Perhaps it’s dressing up, working out, or sharing your thoughts in a meeting.
Write Them Down
Take a moment to jot down three feelings you want to prioritize this week. This will serve as your guiding star.
Step 2: Reframe Your Daily Tasks
Align Your Actions with Your Feelings
Now that you have your “to-feel” goals, it’s time to align your daily actions with them. Here’s how to do that:
- For Joy:
– Schedule a coffee date with a friend.
– Plan a fun activity over the weekend.
- For Calm:
– Block out 10-15 minutes in your day for mindfulness or meditation.
– Consider a daily evening ritual, like a warm bath or reading a book.
- For Confidence:
– Plan a workout that makes you feel strong.
– Choose outfits that empower you.
Create a Daily Intentions List
Every morning, write down 2-3 intentions that align with your “to-feel” goals. This simple act can set a powerful tone for your day.
Step 3: Check In and Reflect
Daily Reflection
At the end of each day, take a few minutes to reflect on how you felt. Ask yourself:
- Did I prioritize my “to-feel” goals?
- How did my actions align or misalign with those feelings?
- What did I learn about myself today?
Weekly Wrap-Up
At the end of the week, look back at your reflections. Celebrate your wins, no matter how small, and identify areas for growth.
Step 4: Be Kind to Yourself
Embrace Imperfection
Remember, this is a journey, not a destination. Some days will be easier than others, and that’s okay. Allow yourself the grace to feel what you feel, without judgment.
Practice Self-Compassion
In moments when you fall back into old habits, remind yourself that it’s normal. Each day is a new opportunity to recommit to your “to-feel” goals.
