Why I'm Turning My Life Around And Starting A Revolution!

Over the last few weeks I’ve slowly come to the realisation that I need to change my life. Not in the sense of what I do with it, or who I have in it, but in how I live it from day to day. You see, I love what I do for a living, even when it doesn’t pay the bills. And I love my husband, my puppy, my family and friends. I love that we’ve just moved back to Tasmania. I love what I see out the window every morning. And yet, I feel unhappy. Why? All I can think of is that I’m not doing all these things properly. I’ve become complacent. I’ve let my tendency toward depression take over and I've been listening to those mind gremlins again. I’ve allowed issues in the wider world to invade my inner sanctity. I’ve lost a bit of hope that everything is going to work out and find myself staring at the computer screen with no idea what to do, even though my to do list is overflowing and my ideas folder is brimming with inspiration. Basically, I think I’ve just lost my spark.

Do you ever feel like this? How do you overcome this feeling?

I’m a fairly drastic person by nature and these thoughts have been brewing for a while so I’ve decided enough is enough. I’m going to spend this weekend planning my own personal revolution. Then on Monday morning, I begin the revolt!

I know that changing habits is hard work, and so I’m going to tackle everything I want to change in my life one by one, week by week. I don’t want to risk failing by overwhelming myself, so baby steps it is.

Do you want to join me? Each monday, starting on 16th July, I’m going to post about my revolutionary action for the week. Some of them will be tiny, others not so. But over the coming weeks I intend to work on getting happy, improving my health, rediscovering my lost inner peace and increasing my productivity. I’d love to hear from you if you want to join in! Or if you have your own ideas to add to mine for ways to turn your life around, come see me in the comments!

Welcome to my Personal Revolution!
