I'm back for my first full week of routine after a long, unstructured summer, and because I love you, I'm about to bully you a little.
If you've got ADHD and you've ever watched the girlies at the gym at 6 a.m. and thought “how do they do that,” I've got answers, and you're not gonna want to hear them.
The secret is this: You have to decide ahead of time who you want to be, and then force yourself to do it, five minutes earlier at a time. That’s the philosophy behind my perfect Monday routine, and you’re welcome to steal every single step, except falling asleep on my boyfriend’s biceps. Those are mine.

POINT OF THE STORY
If you want to be something, you have to decide how badly you want it and start absurdly small. Don't set unrealistic expectations for yourself, because that's the fastest way to get discouraged and quit.
Love you, mean it. 🖤
