Yes we have all failed.. Doesn’t sound good does it? But actually Failure is a good thing, because it is helping us learn where we have gone wrong and what we can do that works out better.

Not everything works out, so getting back up and brush yourself off helps you to make changes to prevent failure happening again. In one of my dancing exams, I was fine and I did the waltz and then it came to the tango and my mind went blank and forgot some of the steps but I carried on and got through it and then went wrong in the disco part.

I was determined to get it right and so didn’t miss a lesson, and when one of the girls in my class won the cup for the highest marks made me open my eyes and wanted that trophy.

Tony Robbins has not always been at the top and had a time in his life where he had hardly anything and it was changing his mindset and going through the lessons he had learned not having much to show that has made him the man he is now. I am not a millionaire but it doesn’t mean that I don’t have the chance to be one if I save and don’t waste my cash and did Binary Trading and when I instantly lost £500 my heart sunk and so now know not to do that again but I had to dip my toe in and that all the talk about this money building was total BS and just taking money from people.

Life is about learning of not what to do, and yes learning the hard way at times. I now have my life back on track and now working on a radio which I have wanted to do since a kid and love music and doing counselling and Life Coaching course that I have wanted to do and my son is now at a school that is more suitable for him and took three schools, not due to bad behaviour, it was due to not able to cope with big large size classes and had one to one but isolated him so now he is learning in a group setting with smaller number of children, whom also have learning difficulties and doing really well.

So what Failures have you had? How have you turned your life around since then. I love learning and listening to other stories of their experiences as I feel it is so inspiring. Please use my comment box below.

Hey you! Yes I do have a new video for you today and hope it helps you get your life together if it is not already. I find the mornings are my time to get my editing done on books I am writing and study. I am doing a Life Coaching course, and watch a bit of Youtube just whilst I have my first cup of tea for the day.

I like to make sure that I do some tidying the morning or the evening after dinner and switch things off as I have a overactive mind and if on my laptop and mobile before bed it will effect my sleep.

So I hope you have found my blogs and videos helpful for you to have a better time and better year, and remember please subscribe, as then you won’t miss out on anything I post.

Hello! So I hope you are enjoyed my previous video that is on my Educational Youtube channel, and please subscribe as it helps grow my content and this weeks video is all about How I Realistically Manage my time.

In the mornings I set my alarm for 5:30am but at the moment been getting up at 5am, but this morning I went back to bed, not to sleep but to give myself time to drink my cup of tea and a friend of mine always likes to read in the mornings.

When I used to go running and didn’t feel like it, I would put on a motivation video on or a song on. Now though I use it to edit a book I am trying to finish and do some of my Life Coaching course I am doing, and watch a bit of Youtube, before others are awake.

I give myself free choice time and mark it in my calendar and do whatever I choose, so be realistic and manage your days without putting on too much pressure on yourself.

If you’d like to be kept up to date with my Youtube channel and my blogs then please subscribe.

I will be blogging and creating videos each week.

Life Coaching Programme “Summer Project 2024” Staying indoors all the time

being around other people, happiness and wellbeing, life coaching blog, personal growth, stopping indoors all of the time

If you feel like your life isn’t going anywhere and feeling unaccomplished, then I am sure you may have heard others say to you, “Staying in four walls isn’t going to help”. This was my advise, but now I have changed my mind, because it is feels good when you don’t have to go anywhere sometimes and sort out the home instead. I like fresh air, going for walks and visiting different places and planning walks that I can do when my son, when he is off for the summer holidays, and just have that time together with no plan but just venturing out and taking in my surroundings. This can be such good fun. Having someone who you can share moments with like walking or going on holiday, making it a regular thing, can really boost your mind and energy.

As a child we used to go camping down a friends land they had and sit around the bonfire, and playing games, visiting a lovely country pub that had a jukebox and billiard table, or go to the races. I loved it.

Now though I do like to spend some days in, to catch up on doing some sorting out and pottering around.

It depends on the circumstances, of course if you have an illness then getting out can be hard, so spend sometime visiting someone who is stuck at home because of an illness then however much it may upset you, seeing you can really mean a lot, even if it is for half an hour or so. I remember when my nan could not go out, and was bed ridden, and spending time with her, meant the world to me, but I also miss those times we spent time walking outdoors. We would spend time at a local market, going to the betting shop and would take a trip to Heathrow to see the planes take off and land but then going back to her flat, we would play card games or a board game, and enjoy some TV quiz shows and soaps.

I loved my nan to bits and she looked after me as a kid, so I saw it as its my turn to help her. My grandparents were a massive part of my life. If you feel stuck not seeing anybody, then there are organisations where you can befriend someone, and I have spoken about this before but can really be rewarding and helps you get out of the house, when you don’t want to be indoors.

It is balance and doing what is going to make you want to get up and have a day where you not have in a rush and just having a nice cup at home, doing some laundry and cleaning can then stir us to then go outside. If I want a No Spend day, check out my youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@financiallivingI find stopping in some days helps with that, and yes can online shop but make sure I have tasks each day to do at home so I don’t get bored and buy something online. I like to use the treadmill to help make sure I get exercise each day, and do indoor workouts with my dumbells and exercise mat.

I hope this blog helps you and remember to subscribe if you want to be kept up to date with my blog and projects and will be back next with a blog too, and will be making more videos on my Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@CarrieEducationalYoutube-ws4xp

Following positive habits, growing your wellbeing, health and happiness, life coaching programme, Summer project post

Life can take many routes and before you know you see doom and gloom. There is no point getting up because soon enough it will be time to get back in bed, and the days are just fading away. This can lead us feeling that we are no good to the world, that we have nowhere to go and slip further down and that there is no use in living, as this is all you have to look forward to.

Planning your life: Create a plan for yourself, like if you have wanted to write a book, like I did then create a writing plan and do a bit a day or if your house is cluttered, create a plan to declutter one area a day and time yourself.

Feeling unaccomplished: Write down all the things you would like to accomplish, and start with home, then work and then play. By doing this you will see, that these are actually goals you’ve as often we think goals are running 5k in the morning, which is fine, but breaking it down makes it easier to accomplish and not piling to much pressure on yourself. As yourself, what you want your life to look like? Check out the printable I created for you: My Life Coaching Programme “Summer Project 2024” helping you have a better year and a better life is coming at the start of May 2024

Find your word: My word last year was Build because that is what I wanted last year, and build my content, build the relationship with my son and others, and build my knowledge and so did some courses to help with that, as I have had mental health issues and wanted to help others who may have had mental health problems and reach out. This year is it grow, which some may say is the same thing as build, for me building I think about bricks and grow I think about a seed. For me I needed to build my life up to make room for growth, and has helped me create projects like this one and I wrote a daily blog which I shared on my daily blog: https://mydailythougthsandfeelings.blogspot.com/2024/04/learningbuilding-your-knowledge-and.html

Making choices: Do you want to feel low about yourself all your life? When I read a book by Paul McKenna it asked this question and made me think, no I don’t. I need to get out of the bed, and get dressed, not wasting my life lying hear feeling sorry for myself. So address, using my work book, of what areas of your life you are not happy with and make the choice, to be happy or not to be happy.

Reduce your consumption of negativity: I try to avoid watching things on TV that are overly violent, or has a lot of blood in, as it can affect me. As a kid I avoided horror films because it would effect my sleep and so now I will listen to true stories, but it depends on what it is and selective on what I consume online. Now I do that, I feel better and the same with certain music.

I love my life now. It has taken a lot for me to feel this way and we all deserve to feel like this. I hope you find these tips help you and remember to check out my Pinterest and social media platforms as I have content on there too, for this years Summer Project Programme.

I have filmed a video sharing my printable, I created, https://youtu.be/-E2LmAU0xBg and will be creating videos to go up on my New Educational Youtube channel: CarrieEducationalYoutube-ws4xp
