Oh Crap! – Musings of an Unperfect Mommy

Consistency

April 9, 2016

I realized last night that one thing I need to cultivate in my efforts to balance my life is consistency. It is something that I’m only half good at. I like this definition from Merriam-Webster:

marked by harmony, regularity, or continuity

I am really consistent about my rising and going to bed times. I wash my face and brush my teeth twice a day every day. I say morning and evening prayers. I do the grocery shopping every Saturday. So, I know I’m capable. It’s just in other areas I seem to fail. Housework is one of them. School can sometimes be another – especially in winter. I am a creative type so I can get sidetracked easily. That means that I need to cultivate consistency so that those things that need to be done get done on time and at the same time every day so that they are finished and I can move on to something I would rather be doing.

Part of this is that I am more tired these days, somewhat due to age, but more likely due to my imbalance of late. So, I need to be consistent about eating on time, taking my vitamins, and getting some kind of exercise in. I know that when that balances out I will have more energy to do the housework more consistently and easily. In the meantime, I need to do the things I need to every day even if it takes all day to do it. The done on time and at the same time every day thing will come eventually. At least I’ll be getting somewhere.
