How to improve your life right this second?

-
Am reminded of something I read on twitter.

Have nothing to tweet about? Have a life outside of twitter. 

Someone asked me before where I get my inspiration for writing. 

I get them from podcasts and audiobooks I listen to or ebooks I'm currently reading.

I get them from living life.  

Life is an adventure. 

Stop scrolling and looking at other people's lives on Instagram. 

You'll only be filled with envy for not having the life they are living. 

Not only that, you forgot that people only post their highlight reels. 

I'm back on a 60-day no Instagram experiment after finding myself scrolling whenever I am bored. 

So difficult to quit. 

So easy to get sucked back into it and continue with bad habits.

I'm 4 days into the experiment and I'm finding I have so many things I want to do to bring me closer to my goals.

My goals of becoming a writer, working remote and travelling the world at the same time.

If you're thinking of making a change to your life, how about making a few tiny tweaks?

Quit Instagram. 

Or don't quit but go off it for a month or two. 

Start writing online. Join me on twitter or create a blog and just start writing.

The benefits of writing online are endless. 

Clarity, peace of mind, finding your tribe, improved overall well-being.

It's not going to be easy. I still find days where I have nothing to write. (like this post, I stared at the blank page for half an hour)

But it's going to be worth it. 

Don't be like me. 

I regretted not starting sooner.

Was feeling a little poor after paying off two big ticket items. Went grocery shopping with my boyfriend and this is what we saw. Ahead of us in the queue was an old man. He held a white plastic bag with 2 packets of biscuits inside. He flicked the receipt as he waited in line. He was going to exchange the items. In the basket that he's now placed at the conveyor belt at the cashier was 3 loaves of bread. The cashier scanned the 3 loaves of bread. Isn't it 3 for $3.30? I saw the sign there 3 for $3.30. Cashier lady: No, that's not the sign for that one, the 3 for $3.30 is the small ones. Is it? But the sign there put 3 for $3.30. Next time you need to place one staff there to tell people which one is 3 for $3.30. Cashier lady: So you still want the bread? No, not 3 for $3.30 then never mind, he sighed as he pulled his trolley that was overflown with plastic bags of items which made his home and walked away. ): Our grocery items amounted to $36.65. I used a $10 Fairprice vou

You’ve got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle. - Steve Jobs' 2005 Stamford Commencement Address --- I'm enjoying where I am and what I do. I hope you find what you love in 2024. Don't settle. Happy 2024!

/personal Feeling like you made it but you didn't. Still got to give it to myself for making the move. Making the move to quit on a job I was no longer growing in. Making a move to bring my parents for a trip. I'm sitting here in the living room of the home for tonight, an Airbnb we booked.  Bro and parents asleep in the room. I'm filled with immense gratitude we made it. We did it fam. We did.  To the 10 year old Brienne,  look! Zhe Zhe brought us overseas!  And bonus, with parents and bro! To the Bree a year ago, I'm proud of you.  You awesome little piece of shit, I'm so freaking proud of you. The world out there is your oyster Work hard, manifest abundance Go get it!
