Iโ€™ve been struggling with consistency since my son went to college seven years ago. I think empty nest and living alone are what screwed up my routine, or lack thereof. I started walking consistently last year and have lost 10-15 pounds. Now I need to have an eating routine. Ugh! Itโ€™s so hard when you live alone. The other thing is finding time to grow my business and create other sources of income. Today Iโ€™m working on organizing my office. I think that will feel really good when I finish. Thanks for reminding me of the benefits of structure!

Thank you! As a teacher just back to work after an epic summer, Iโ€™m actively figuring out how to keep in the things I love. Calendar time!

Consistency seems to be on a lot of writerโ€™s minds lately.๐Ÿ˜‰ I love reading what everyone has had to share. It prompts me to examine my life and give myself a pat on the back for the areas where Iโ€™m knocking this out of the park, and awareness around the areas where Iโ€™m not.

Great read as always, Karen! Thanks for sharing!
