10 minutes ago i was thinking dang i wish i could find someone making videos about planning for energy and chronic illness and this was the next vid i clicked in a related vid. so glad to have found you!!
Wow! So glad you found it. What beautiful serendipity ✨ Welcome to our little community here! Let me know if there are any aspects to planning that would be helpful to you that I could show or talk about. 💕
A part of me wishes I’d got the A5 but I’m glad I got the B6 because I found your channel as a result. Everything you have said resonated so strongly with me. Especially having a chronic & having to remind myself that I am not lazy, I just have different energy levels on different days. I love goal setting, so having to scale back has been hard since getting ill.
That’s so kind of you to say 🥰 And I am glad this was helpful too. It’s hard to navigate when others are making a ton of goals this time of year. Finding what works for you is key. Thanks so much for sharing 💕
This is wonderfully reassuring to listen to. After spending decades trying to keep up, then crashing and since then recovering/accepting and adapting to my limits I no longer use my planner for planning. I use it so I can better visualize time. I mostly use lists - monthly lists/weekly lists/lists for events. My ADHD responds better to making choices from a list for the day. And, if I get hyper focused on something productive I just keep going because I know how fleeting that can be. If reorganizing a drawer turns into a room it’s all good. There ARE so many ways to live a life. My brain also responds well to gamifying projects and also to using rewards.
@@stamdl so glad you found it reassuring and that you have found many ways to support yourself through planning. I relate to many of them :) Thanks so much for sharing 💕
This makes so much sense to me! I have ADHD, in my 60’s. Significant head injury in 2017, depression, I am now the only sibling left of three) mild asthma, Type 2 diabetes (recently diagnosed), but at the same time I love to work - especially part-time! I very much resonate with your energy levels - brain spinning, stuck… this is perfect for me. Thank you so much for sharing!
@ ❤️ thank you so much! I hope you are well also! You really lifted me with this video, I have been feeling guilty about not accomplishing some things.
Try to release the guilt, shoulds and comparisons. I like to say “I couldn’t have been done any sooner as my body didn’t have the energy and I don’t want to burn out.” It’s hard though. The time that it gets done is the time it was meant to. 💕
I just came across your channel but I already feel like I can relate to you. I also have IBS (Colitis), and another autoimmune condition as well. I still have these almost no energy days but even when I know that I won't get anything "productive" done, I still attempt to :( The persistent feeling of being lazy is never far from my mind...

Flipping the SI goal page to accommodate the 8 Makse Life categories is genius!

Home de-cluttering is tough especially when your spouse doesn’t see progress because it’s not perfect - the most discouraging to me.
@@annettefertitta6868 that’s hard. Know that your viewpoint is valuable and you can see it happening. Small changes add up to big shifts. 💕
thank you for bringing so real
absolutely. glad it was relatable. :)
