I always find time stamps to be so helpful with videos so that’s my way of paying it forward (also to my future self when I need to have a quick reminder!)
Thank you ❤️😊🙏
Thank you! This is very appreciated! 🙂
Thank you
I usually absorb written information better and your timestamps work as a perfect general summary. So, I appreciate it!
Thank you!!
It's pronounced OOh-boon-too. It's from my language, isiZulu. It's also used in many Bantu languages in Africa. Lovely video and valuable tips.
Was scrolling to see if anyone helped her with that. Hey my fellow South African 🌟♥️
Hey fellow south african 🇿🇦
Lol, I'm binge watching your entire channel, had to stop an older video of yours for this one 🙃. I love your content! The clean kitchen sink is something I do now everyday, and it indeed works! Many more spots in my home get cleaner and cleaner, yay!
Me too !
That was me last weekkk! You will get up to speeedd!
Yay 😀 👏🏻 my whole smart goals group made this goal too! We double up & clean together. We are also reading Atomic Habits together! On chapter 6!
Me too!! P.s. love the green nail polish! 😘
Me too
Hearing that it’s hard for other people to get out of bed, but they just make themselves is really lifechanging advice for me. I think I was under the impression that morning people enjoyed getting up early. It puts me in the mindset that if other people can force themselves to get up, I can too
One more suggestion : I plan my outfit for the next day the night before, down to the shoes, jewelry, and accessories. It makes the mornings so much easier to have that decision already made.
That tip works for me. That tip saves you the time you waste just looking at your closet not knowing what to wear.
I did that when I was working and also when my children were young and in school. It made mornings much easier!
I totally agree. It is great to wake up and have clothes and accessories ready to go.
I pay forward with a passion. Many people are preoccupied with their busy lives so they miss out on how it feels when the smile you give, comes back to you. It's the small gestures that count. 🤗
I agree. I taught junior high, high school, adult education, in a maximum security men's prison, and college for 43 years. I did a lot of free tutoring and still do some. Last week, one of my former students contacted me to go to dinner. She was in tears thanking me for helping her through college 7 years ago. She also contacted my favorite professor and got him to write a short message in the book he had authored. I had given her the book to use for class, and I had forgotten about it. She said she would be forever grateful to me for my kindness and patience. My dad always told us that God created each of us to help our fellow man (woman). That's what brings me joy.
Wow, how funny, my memory verse for this week- "Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others." Phil. 2:4 So cool, and I agree, pay it forward.
Re music and mood: I have discovered the “fountain of youth”! Listen (and dance, and sing if you want) to the music of your teen years through your twenties. For me that’s 1969 through
1989.
So true!! Brings back a more carefree/simpler time in my life, even though I’m ok with where I am today. Nice to have good memories pop up too.
I have to tell you my favorite pay it forward moment. I had the day off so I set about my errands, grocery shopping was on the list so I'm standing at the check out with a basket full. I looked behind me and there was a guy with like 3 or 4 things in his hands, I asked him Is that all you have? I then told him he could go before me. He kind of looked surprised and said thank you. After he checked out and payed he turned and said thank you, you just saved my entire day, my son has a field trip at school and I forgot his lunch. You are right Kallie, I felt so good about that small little gesture that didn't take any time away from my day but was very important to that person.
I am a relatively new Sub and I am loving your channel, thank you.
Aww …love this !
❤️
A while back a very close friend sent me a small poster that that noted many things that will improve yourself, your life, and the lives of others. One thing mentioned was to pay it forward. Now, I have always tried to do this but now I really try to do something kind for someone every day. I keep the poster by my bed and look at it frequently. Where did my friend get the poster? It was the back of a cereal box!
I do that often and love the look of surprise on the faces of the people I am nice to.
I am in my 60s and have not used an alarm in years. I am usually in bed by 10:30 at night and my body naturally wakes between 6 and 7 in the morning. Love all of your helpful ideas. I am with you on the coffee thing. I think because of my age I am not tied to my phone so that is not a problem for me. Thanks for all your wonderful ideas.
Just want to let you know how much you help me. I am 70 years and still find learning something new with you. Thank you!
Hoping you share those playlist all of us could use ideas on feel-good music. Love your content as you know from seeing my name I'm sure thanks so much take care stay safe and continue to be blessed
Me too!!!!
Ditto!
Yes, please!
Me too!
Can you make at least one video of your skincare/hair care routine or tips? Because your skin and hair always looks fantastic. It looks so healthy and vibrant. ☺️
Ha! Number 7! Hilarious! Also, I agree.
I think the 7th tweak could fall into a “create a cut off time for caffeine”. I did a fitbit sleeping challenge and one of the tips was choosing a time to cut caffeine (2pm, 3, 4) I used 3 or 330. I finished the challenge two years ago but I realized it helped me fall asleep easier cutting it off early. I’ve noticed that I’m still mindful when 3 comes around to pour or finish my last cup to be done at 330
My cutoff is lunch (noonish).
Same here. My cut-off is 2pm. My insomnia has gotten better since then.
I live in Portlandia, so I can’t/won’t give up coffee, but I definitely focus on living out the Golden Rule.
Every little chance I get, I help others, even if it’s only to give a haggard store clerk a smile.
I remember being so down years ago, that a smile from a stranger felt precious, and I cherished them.
I love using my Fitbit alarm,it's not a noise but a vibration that wakes you up. I love the smart wake function where the watch
highlights a window within 30 minutes before the set alarm time when you are in a light sleep stage and will wake you then.
I would love to hear your playlist. Is it something you can share?
I would as well. I can’t seem to find the link or shared title.
Yup me too
It’s a golden rule…love never fails…showing compassion to others is how we should be…value in everyone.thank you for the reminders.
So good…did I miss the playlists? I was so excited to add them. Can you include a few?
Hitting snooze was a BIG one for me! For so long I hit it, mostly because I didn’t want to face the day and my bed felt safe. I would fall back asleep and get reawakened. I truly could feel the effect it had on my energy levels the rest of the by making me feel so groggy. But once I simply had to start by every morning when my alarm went off … just pushed through the HUGE temptation to crawl back in and that’s when the change came !!! My mornings are soooo much more enjoyable and I’ve learned to conquer the day first try… not feeling like I can’t. Love all your vids and inspiration Kali !!!
So on point “been useful” that’s what we need to strive for “been useful to humanity“ instead of constantly taking 🙏🏼
Kallie, I started meal planning last fall, and I can’t even explain how freeing this little action is, to my everyday life. Also, I will be 70 in a few months, and during those years inclusive of the 33 years I worked outside the house, I have never once hit my snooze button🤗. Thank you for the suggestions.
I am definitely a night owl and definitely hit the snooze more times that I could count throughout my life and working career (43 years). I am 71 and retired and finally feel normal being able to sleep late. I do need to adjust my sleep schedule though.
OMG I am so with you. Your rythm influences the rhythm of your kids, so you are teaching them on the go. I go to bed between 8 pm and 8:30 pm every day, even on weekends. No matter what. I turn of the episode right in the middle if necessary. I listen to an audio book, the end is programmed. Every morning I wake at 3:45. The alarm starts at 4 am. My dog has the same rhythm. When there is an exception to the rule, when I am sick for example, at home and in bed the whole day, my dog goes crazy - and I go crazy, too. This helps me so much.
I am constantly losing or breaking my phone, so when I am without phone, I have noticed that I accomplish so much more and get a lot more detailed cleaning done.
As a South African, hearing you speak about Ubuntu is so inspiring and heartwarming. Thank you for your content Kallie, it's really helped me a lot!
Hey fellow Saffer , was coming here to say this 🙌🙌
@@fatigahdev8076 Love to see it!😁 hello!
Lots of people who quit coffee have found it life changing.
I really need to get on the bedtime routine.
I love the phone use: intentional or out of boredom (or, may I add, avoidance).
Avoidance is definitely what exponentially increases my phone use. Oh, I'll just finish reading this article and then I will do the dishes; next thing I know, it's been an hour since I said that. 😬
Don’t make me beg for the playlist girl. Haha Love your videos
Hey there🙋🏼♀️, I use a clock radio for my wake-up alarm. It’s going to take a minute to discover the station that consistently plays zen, calm wake up music but it makes a huge difference and I usually did not want to press snooze because of the great music. The other plus is your device should be off, and you have now successfully been device free for at least 8 hours and hopefully you can get through the breakfast rush without turning it on. That’s a beautiful thing ☮️💟🪴
You had me at ... put good out into the world... even a small bit ... everyday... the ripple effect is real, so make your ripple awesome!
You’re not the only one who discuss this things in UA-cam, but it counts to be very clear straight forward… that’s why i enjoy your videos!👍🏻♥️
On a completely random note, your makeup looks flawless - would love a new tutorial video!
Just curious... I don't see the curated playlist you mentioned. Am I just missing it? Great ideas and have a great week!!
I would love to see a car organization hacks video!!!
My husband had to go to a different city today for work. He usually drops one kid to school and I drop the other one (different schools). So tomorrow morning is gonna be hard. So, I decided to make a list of everything we will have for school and work lunch, snacks and supper and prepare our clothes for the next day.I already know it's gonna make my life so much easier. One thing I also started doing is cleaning my dishes before going to bed and it feels so good in the morning to wake up to a clean kitchen so thank you 😊
Thank you I love that song "Worth It" I think it's appropriate. When we are overwhelmed by the mess we forget to tell ourselves we are worth it because it makes us feel better
This probably one of the best and most helpful videos I’ve seen on this topic. So hilarious. When you mentioned at the end about switching to tea… at that moment o completely changed my mind about this video and then when you said you were kidding I decided I loved you so much. 🤣😂 Such a Rollercoaster in just one second! Thanks for the vid.
Love the music playlist and no coffees a HARD no from me too❤️
I am soooooooooo with you. I stopped the snooze button years ago and it definitely is a game changer. It drives me INSANE! The phone thing -- man.... I keep trying to figure out how to go back to paper planner to be able to cut the cord with my phone. I did start putting the social media screen time limits to help me be less likely to get sucked into the social media vacuum. Helps a lot.
The one problem I had with paper planners is I'm OCD about things being neat and I prefer pen which sucks when you mess up so I started buying the pilot frixion pens. They're erasable and I also got their highlighters and fine point markers.
@@boysnmom6376 I’m in Texas and was told heat can basically erase them so I was like well crap! I can’t seem to find my solution but I’m trying!!
Thumbs up for paper planners!!! I think it’s better for my brain and it forces me to practice penmanship.👍👍👍
I have Multiple Sclerosis, I definitely have a specific routine for sleep. It helps me so much. Good advice to reminder 🌸
Hello from Ireland!!! I Cannot thank you enough for these tips! I have started meal planning ( i should have been doing it as a chef anyway! ) but it has given me and my hubby back so much time!! saving money on our grocery billl too. We have 2 kids under 2 and it has been tough with postnatal depression too, I now feel like im getting my life back! :)
The spring nails!!! So worth watching the video just to see the nails!
Thank you, Very good advise‼️I couldn’t find your music play list😕. Stay safe & well ❣️
Would have loved a download for your upbeat music! I watch most of your video’s and they make a lot of common sense. Keep up the good work and your children are adorable and blessed to have a mommy like you. Enjoy your day👍
I started meal planning about 8 months ago and it is the best thing I've ever done. Wish I'd done this when my kids were young. Great video! I always get so much out of your tips videos. Thnx!!!
Thank you Kallie!! Love all your advice!
Oh geez! You scared me with the tea joke! I’m a hard NO on the giving up of coffee!
Thank you ! Happy Mother’s Day 💐!
Been binge watching. Love your content !
I already do most of these things, thankfully! Working from home on devices for a good portion of last year made me realize how much I did NOT want to be on my devices. With going back to college and working full time, I get plenty of computer time. I have fallen into that bad habit again and need to stop. With nearly grown sons going every direction, I make sure I am intentional in the time we do have together. Extended family dynamics have changed, so making those a priority when possible is important, too. So little time and so much to do! I am trying to get back into the habit of doing the dishes every night and hoping that spills over into other areas, too. This time change has not been kind either. I am ready for spring!
Kallie, your videos are always fun and informative but this one was especially helpful. 6 easy things we can all incorporate in our lives that have big impact. I especially connected to what you said about being in your own bubble when you were in labor. When I'm sick or in pain I do the same thing but never knew how to describe it. Every tweak was golden and the suggestion of upbeat music is also right up my alley. Thanks for another great video! XXOO ❤️
Great advice!
I really enjoy your videos!
Thank you so much for these. I used to do 2 of them but have since fallen back to old ways. As an always tired mom of 4 boys, this is just what I needed to hear today! God bless you & your family! 👍🏻 ☮️&💖 😊
Thank you
Been binging on your videos today...love your ideas an down to earth ideas...thx
Wow, what an incredibly thoughtful, beautiful and articulate human you are❣ Your insight is wise and your descriptions make what sometimes seem like insurmountable tasks, possible (coming from a lifelong we'll just say "collector" of Everything)😌🤫 Thank you, all of your videos are Great😊❣🌷
I’ve been binging your videos lately and find them incredibly helpful. One thing that really got me was the “not going to bed with a dirty kitchen” one cuz that was my biggest setback every single morning.
These are all great tips but I admit when you got to the 7th all I could think was *HAHAHAHAHA no.*
That video of you and Finley dancing is so sweet! I love it! She is just so adorable ! Your a great mom Kali! I hope someday I will be able to be a mom and keep the values you have ( of less phone and more intentional time). Your doing a great job and are an inspiration to me !!
I’m way more productive when I’m fully rested. I naturally sleep from 12 to 8am, wake up naturally and refreshed, no alarm, no feeling tired, no wanting to sleep in more. If you’re getting enough sleep, you shouldn’t be feeling tired when you wake up. And I’m with you about coffee - never giving it up. I stick to 2 cups before noon, but would never even think about changing that. A HARD NO.
I’m trying hard to de clutter and keep things kind of clean and tidied up. You - as a young un- are so inspiring! I wish I would have found you 40 years ago!!! 😂
I always go to sleep at the same time every night. Helps with migraines.
Kallie your videos give me new ideas and bring up great points for me to improve myself in so many ways! Thank you for your hard work
Loved the coffee/tea joke at the end. I’m with you, girl!😂
I absolutely appreciate you and love your channel!! 👏🏻☕😄 Hope you have a wonderful day!
Awesome tips! You should have a show on TV
Fun and helpful as always Kallie!
Loved this, thanks Kallie
Terrific video!!! 😊
Great video!
As usual , very informative, motivating , different content .. thank you very much 🙏
Thank you for these tips and keep up your amazing content! 😍
Hi!!
I'm glad I came across your channel, I enjoy watching you! Like your personality
Thanks so much for your videos. I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel, it has definitely change my life lol.
Hello! Each one you talked about, & with very good points to promote a better me/us, is so true. 👍 I have found them a BIG positive in my journey. And, I told myself, I have put each one into my day-by-day living. HOWEVER, you reminded me today that 2 of them have not been consistent. 😲😕 So thank you 4 the wake up. I am very thankful that you included the pay-it-forward. Thinking & giving outside of ourselves. Priceless! 😊💕
Great play list
I had to rewind #7! 😳 I was like "wait, what?" ... And had the BEST laugh! ❤Great tips!!😁
I love the I Heart station Yacht Rock Radio. That puts me in a great mood. I can listen to it all over the world as we travel. In Mexico right now. God bless.
I swapped coffee for tea a couple years ago, and it was life-changing for me. I used to have headaches all the time and now I live headache-free. You can get the same amount of caffeine as coffee with high quality leaves, and there is no crash afterwards.
Points 4 and 5 were eye-opening. I have started implementing them already. Thank you so much!
Love these tips!! Your meal planning video has been a GAME CHANGER for me! Thank you!
You forgot to give us your song playlist. I was looking forward to it!
I spent last weekend without Wi-Fi or data (just used it minimally when I needed to) and dang it was so helpful! And so I added limits on “Screen Time” and WOW it is sooo helpful for me!!!!! You lose track of time when on apps!
“The more you respect others, the more you respect yourself” - this and vise versa are so true! You can’t love others and throw yourself under the bus
Kudos to you for dancing for us with your sweet baby. 🤗❤
I love you ❤️ you are the best! You have changed my life ❤️
Love the Life Changing Tweaks 💛
I have to agree about the meal planning, I have done this for years and it makes things so much easier! I know what to get at the grocery store, I know what we are having each night and that takes the stress out of it! Great tip!
So true about the music! And I do forget that sometimes that it can really lift you up! I'd love to see some of your playlists!
I have just discovered your channel this afternoon and I'm busy watching and creating playlists to come back too. New subscriber here!
Great suggestions!! I, like you, believe we need to be kinder and gentler with our neighbors and have been practicing that for several years. I will, however, work on incorporating many of the other items asap.
Another good video. I enjoy seeing your content! Looking forward to checking out that book 📕
I also did a vegetarian 🌱 stint for a while; and upgraded to organic/natural and grass-fed meats. Quality makes a HUGE difference!
Your Videos Always Make Me Feel Motivated - Like A Breath Of Fresh Air!! - Love Them 💖💖💖💖✨
A consistent night time routine and bed time really helps with making tomorrow a better day!
Kallie, I wanted to recommend the book, "Go Together" by Shola Richards too. He talks all about Ubuntu as well and it's such a real interpretation of why "I am because we are" means so very much! Love your content, you're amazing!
Good advice, funny humor
Love the candid dancing footage, awww. Good tips, the morning and night routine are always so difficult for me but I'll just think of you as a good example!
Kallie, I’m looking for your playlist ♥️😁, please and thanks for all your great content!!
Same!
