You know, I never thought to ask myself why I didn’t stick with an intention. I love the idea of doing this. Maybe I feared self-judgement. Most of the time, the answer was overwhelm. I recently started reorganizing and actually cleaning my room. It will also involve downsizing my storage unit, which has become outrageously expensive. Thanks so much for this video! It made me realize that I was trying to hit 5 tennis balls at the same time, when that isn’t possible, especially since I work 9-5 five days a week. I need to be more gentle with myself. It’ll get done, but maybe I need to step back for a moment and concentrate on one thing. Thanks K :)
The tennis racquet analogy -- so good! Love your mellow, don't sweat it advice. I mean, sweat when you're working out, but in your thinking about your life?... Nah! We should all work to become better versions of ourselves, but it won't work if at the heart of it we don't do it in a way that allows us to be true to who we are -- human!
I've heard that psychologists say that it takes 21 days to establish a habit. Another person whom I follow says that (for us sidetracked homemakers) it can take a full month; so give ourselves the grace of a few extra days to get back on the wagon instead of quitting when we think we have "failed" if we didn't do it perfectly. Your suggestions are right on.
Hello! I love your perspective! I appreciate spiders and I am grateful for what they do. I allow others to catch and release them. I love your channel ❤️
Haha I just remembered to take my vitamins and it's after 1 a.m. My only change this new year was to drink tea instead of coffee. Seems small but it's had the biggest impact on my gut health and regularity.
I hope the vitamin D you are talking is in oil, either olive or coconut, because it's a fat soluble vitamin which means it needs to be taken with fats (usually with a meal). Also, adequate amounts of magnesium for the day, I supplement about 300-400mg, as it's need to activate D supplementation (if it's just sunlight one is getting I don't think it's needed). And then depending on how much D you are taking, K2 (not to be confused with K1 which has to do with blood clotting) helps direct the calcium into your bones and not into your soft tissues (calcification) which is an issue when supplementing D. I studied this hardcore in early 2022 and my serum D levels are great now... when I consistently take my pills. lol It was close to 60 ng/ml last time checked, I was severely deficient years ago and it explained some of my chronic fatigue. My goal is to be between 60-80 (international people, your units are in nmol which is totally different).
Thanks for adding this info here!!! I need to check my labels today. Then I need to create a habit!! All the habits Kay struggled with are the same ones I struggle with. Thanks again.
Fun fact mushrooms are sometimes the best source of vitamin D. I am a person who doesn't absorb vit D well, and almost not at all from sunshine ( I live in 1 of the sunniest places in America), and cow dairy also isn't healthy for me, but mushrooms I can do. And I think some species have a higher level than 1 of the other 2 sources, I just can't remember the exact statistics.
I'm new to your fabulous channel and kudos galore on your videos!!! You are so watchable and so listenable to and I adore your excitement and passion for your life!!! Quick question, please: after looking high and low I am now asking you directly where you found those super-lightweight pastel-colored open-topped boxes you carry around your apartment to move items from one room to another. They look like the perfect things! Congratulations and kudos, again, and bravissima for all you've accomplished on RUclips and in your beautiful life. XOXOXOXOXOXOX!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@TheOrganizedSoprano I wasn't able to see the handles, but Yves picked one up during your glorious video in which you cleaned together! He picked up a white one but I've seen a pink one in other of your videos. They look so terrific! Thank you for your brilliant work on RUclips!!! I'm 80 years old and have learned a great deal from you. Bravissima, Kay!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 (standing ovation, for which there is no emoji.)
@@TheOrganizedSoprano I just saw it again today in your April 22, 2022 video called CLEAN AND RESET ROUTINE FOR A SOLO WEEKEND. It is at 11:18 of that video, and yes, it does have handles. The one in this video is lime green. If you possibly remember where you found these amazing cubes I'd be so grateful to learn even if they're no longer available -- there's always eBay! Huge thanks, and kudos galore!! XOXOXO
@@a.m.8252 Ah!!! Those were from the Container Store and they sadly discontinued them! It's super sad because I get asked about them all the time! I'll try to find something similar! :(
@@TheOrganizedSoprano You are such a darling to have stuck with this question and given me the sad news that TCS discontinued it. I deeply appreciate your kindness in inquiring what I saw. I actually thought, given your history with TCS, that it might have come from there. I have Googled "mesh storage cubes" and searched for them on Amazon, Walmart, and Target but (sob!) no luck. If you should find anything comparable, this loyal 80-year-old subscriber and membership member (if that isn't redundant) would be even more grateful to you than I already am. The appealing thing about your cubes is that they're light and although i exercise, my upper body strength is not all it could be. Bravissima, dear Kay, for all you do!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 (I hope that's the hands clapping in applause emoji. This screen is so minuscule., I cam't be sure, but that's my intention.).
Just as a little tip re the vitamin D, here in switzerland we have a liquid vitamin d deposit type of supplement that you only take once a month, maybe you have this in the US as well? I never looked for it when I lived there cause I only learned about it when I moved back to switzerland and everyone was like, why do you take this everyday :D you might need a prescription for it but it shouldn't be a big deal if you're deficient.
The sweetness I like is my ReLyte berry mix, which has stevia. I also do liquid monkfruit in my coffee. For me it's really the drinks, as someone who likes fufu coffees and mt dew. lol
Same! It’s the drinks! Mostly the frufru tea and coffee drinks. My matcha latte is nice and sweet! If you haven’t tried the chocZero syrups you must! They are AMAZING. I am addicted they have me in a chokehold
@@TheOrganizedSoprano I'll have to check it out, right now I am using a bottle of Skinny Syrups Salted Caramel, but I'm not really a big fan of a few of the ingredients.
I definitely need to do just one thing because too many makes me do nothing.

6:10 Yes! Journaling is like hacking your brain in real time. Thank you for adding this to the video along with other super helpful tips ❤
I needed to hear this. Thank you!
thank you!!! this is the video I needed right now.

Oh hey, bestie 😊
Such a great video.
Thanks for breaking this all down in a logical way… loved your 🎾 analogy!! I’m going to be thinking about that for weeks.
Haha I just remembered to take my vitamins and it's after 1 a.m.

Thanks Kay! Happy New Year, I also loved your house tour video...Your hair looks beautiful!☺
This video was sooooo helpful to me today thank you sis ❤❤❤❤❤

It’s a suspension in MCT oil because I’m a baby and I can’t take pills 😭😂
hmmm that tennis analogy was on point! I love it! I want to exercise and do some intermittent fasting and keep failing. This was helpful!
Great advice!! Really gave me something to think about!! ❤
Great advice, Thank You..
I’m not a fan of weird restrictions, but you do you.

I also found out that if you put your mushrooms in the sun for an hour or two it gets even more vitamin D ☺️
I love your little curls around your face! I wish I had curly hair.
Some great ideas here Kay❤❤❤
Loved this video
Happy New Year.❤❤❤❤

❤️ for the algorithm
what if apps being accountability don't work and you can't find an accountability buddy?
❤ 🎾 reference. 💯 📓
Kay, what is hubneat? Is it a new project you’re doing? Love your videos on this channel and your personal one. ❤️
Hub Neat is the old name of my business. Sometimes it still creeps up 😂
Ah. Got it. Thanks for responding, Kay.
great list 🩵🩵🩵thanks KAY
