What is one small thing that you can do right now that'll make you really proud of yourself. Hey guys, welcome back to the Clutterbug Podcast.

Today we're talking about being proud of ourselves. We're talking about things that we can do right now, things that we can do today before we go to bed. That is going to make us feel good about ourselves in some small way and I think this is one of the biggest

misconceptions when it comes to happiness is that it comes from someone else or something else,

like buying something or your spouse telling you

you're amazing.

No one else can really give you long lasting happiness and it definitely doesn't come in a store and maybe

maybe this is just me but I've really seen a correlation between my happiness

and me being proud of myself, feeling like I've done something, accomplished something.

That's what really at the end of the day honestly makes me happy.

It makes me happy to help someone else day honestly makes me happy. It makes me happy to create

something to do a craft. It makes me happy when I've accomplished a goal, however

small it is. I mean I can get really happy about organizing a junk drawer.

But the thing that's like uniting about all the different things that I do that bring me

happiness is that I am feeling proud of

myself. I feel great when I spend time with my kids or do something with my kids because

I'm like oh I'm being a good mom. Again I'm I'm proud of myself. I feel good when I'm like, oh, I'm being a good mom. Again, I'm proud of myself. I feel good when I make something because I'm like, oh, look at this cool thing I made or when I do a blog post or anything that I do that honestly brings me that joy, that feeling of joy, it always

comes down to the same thing. And now that I've sort of keyed off on that and I've realized the correlation between happiness and the things that make me happy,

I'm able to motivate myself a lot more. I think procrastination, I'm pretty much the queen of it, but it's a universal problem.

We all procrastinate. And I get, that's probably one of the number one questions I get

is, how do I, where do I get started? How do I get is how do I where do I get started how do I get motivated

how do you do so much I can hardly you know find time to take a shower during the day and

I don't honestly do that much. I am a lazy person and I spend a lot of down time, but when I do do something, I'm always thinking, what can I do that's going to make me really good about myself today? And some days it's catching up on laundry. Some days it's just cleaning the kitchen.
