Love your honesty in saying “everything’s a highlight reel” so many CZcamsrs don’t acknowledge that I appreciate you!
I was just going to comment this very thing. Love that Kallie is real with us. 🥰
"Start by doing what is necessary; then do what is possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible. " St. Francis of Assisi
Now I have to get up a start doing what is necessary!
I love that quote. Screen shot coming up!
Awesome quote!!! Would love to know if you read this in a “book”
A body at rest stays at rest, that hit me hard, so much truth in that!!
That was in a commercial from a few years back lol
Sir Isaac Newton proposed his First Law of Motion, the law of inertia, in 1687: A body at rest tends to remain at rest. A body in motion tends to stay in motion. Bodies will continue in their current state, whether at rest or in motion, unless acted on by a greater outside force.
I agree with that to a point. But if you are like me and have a lot of pain the more I move the more I'm hurting but I do try believe me!
Yea that hit me hard too as I sit at rest watching this video.. but maybe next time I will walking AND listening to this video instead
Me too! In such a huge way.
So it wasn’t just me staring at that adorable head of hair!! It was distracting in the best way!!💚
I had to pause the video to see if anyone was distracted with me. I had no idea a bit of hair could be a clarion call lol
Exactly what I though! 👍🏻
Yes!!!!! 💜💜💜💜💜
Same! LOL
Yes! That hair is the best! 😍
Thank you Kallie. Midway through I paused this video, got up, and washed the dishes in my sink that I had been procrastinating over. Took me all of ten minutes. Now I'm back to finishing watching you. :)
I just need to shout out Finley’s hair. She got hair goals. congrats on the baby !
I literally retired so I could organize and declutter my house. It is going very slow. I bought some kitchen drawer organizers yesterday that would normally sit in their bags for weeks....... I will get my timer out and see how long it takes me!!
1. A body in motion stays in motion. Force yourself to move; the momentum will keep you going.
2. Visualize the end result & how good you will feel after you complete the task.
3. Make your task enjoyable, e.g. listen to music/audiobooks,
4. Amp yourself up to the task by planning rewards.
5. Brain dump. Write down everything on your mind that you want to get done this week, month etc to avoid feeling overwhelmed & know where to get started.
6. Time yourself when you do tasks that you dread & procrastinate on. You will realize they don't take much time & will be more motivated to do them again.
7. Take time to rest (but don't overdo it). Don't make rest your reward; take pride in your work instead & enjoy the sense of accomplishment.
8. Illustrate progress. Check things off your to do list as you complete them.
9. Stop multitasking; it actually slows your productivity & tires your brain quicker.
10. Learn to hit reset.
You don't need to wait until tomorrow or next Monday. Do it now (First, acknowledge that you need to reset. Second, start fresh).
thank you!
Oh my goodness that hair!! Literally my favorite part of my babies when they were that age was the back of their head😂 all that hair is just ADORABLE!!
My hack is to put on my sneakers/shoes within first few minutes of waking up then keeping them on throughout the day.
My problem is I feel like I can’t enjoy doing my hobbies like sewing, embroidery, diamond painting, or a large puzzle UNTIL my house is clean first 😩 then I’m too tired to do it 😂
This is me! I have no energy left over lol
Totally get this - so sometimes I just go into my craft space - shut the door & create. It gives me inspiration and boosts my motivation for when I go back to whatever cleaning I have to do.
I'm the same exact way! I don't give myself permission to do my creative hobbies until my "work is done." Even though my hobbies are good for me and a healthy outlet. Ugh!
Yessss! I completely relate 🥺
I often have the same problem. What has helped for me is to reframe why I really SHOULD do my hobby. I draw and play piano. But if I do these fun activities only because they are fun, then I feel guilty that I'm not getting my work done. On the other hand, if I do these fun activities because they will help my brain to stay young and sharp, then I can justify setting aside some time every day to enjoy them. I think if you find a real justification that you believe in and that motivates you, you'll be okay with spending time on your hobbies.
I just want you to know this made me cry a bit. I'm a first time mom, working full-time from home with my baby during COVID and I've struggled a lot and keep getting overwhelmed. I was about 4 or 5 months pregnant when the country first shut down and most people didn't even find out I was pregnant until we were already social distancing so I didn't get any of the help that I normally would've gotten from friends and family and have been pretty overwhelmed since before LO came. I appreciate you starting the video with telling us about only seeing the "highlights", it makes me feel better that others (even CZcams personalities) struggle too and that there are things you can do to help get your life back on track.
You are stronger than you realise. 🥰 You got this. 🤗 Congratulations! ❤
Remember YOU need time for you. Don't forget about yourself. 🤗
@@latinaboricua6987 Honestly, that's the part I struggle with. Whenever I have a moment to myself I feel guilty like I should be doing something. I'm trying to work on that.
@@cfranklin8841 You just have to think, a happy mom = happy children, partner etc. You need to take a break to rest and do something that makes you happy, then you have the disposition to spread the happiness.
Congrats on the baby!!
Great tips but I love the beginning “remember everything you see online is someone’s highlight reel” 🙌 so important to keep that in mind 💕
Great video! My 66 y/o ears don’t hear as fast as Kallie is speaking. I reset the playback speed to 0.75 and it’s much better for me - I can take notes! Since retiring I’ve lost all motivation, like a switch was flipped. I’m so grateful for this video to help me set a retirement pace. Big hug and lots of love to you and your growing family, Kallie! 🙏
same here Beth! I retired, covid hit.....and I've felt frozen and unmotivated pretty much ever since. I made some new "rules" for myself for 2021, and slowly coming out of the funk.
I detest unloading the dishwasher however it only takes 99 seconds. Procrastinate for 4 hours for 99 seconds! However certain tasks can be done while Multi tasking. For example waiting for coffee to percolate etc. I will tidy up the kitchen or put things away etc.
Call me crazy because I love unloading my dishwasher ONLY because it makes my cabinets look organized and perfect. Everything is in there and it looks great. Lol
Yes! I find doing something while I need to wait anyways (wait for toaster, wait for water to boil, wait for oven to heat up) is so productive! It’s surprising what you can get done in those short waiting periods.
I empty the dishwasher at night. My MIL would say tidy the days work, so it doesn’t spill and layer into the next day.
Even areas one thinks I’ll just use that tomorrow. Put things back, other than rare projects. It’s the key to start a day fresh.
I hate putting away clean clothes. I dont mind hanging them on the line or folding them, but something about putting the clothes away....
@@kempfreehold9450 Perhaps there is no room to put them away? Clean out drawers and closets may be helpful? Then when a place is evident to put things away, voila. Otherwise, everything out in the open makes chaos.
The broccoli before the cookie thing - you mentioned it so briefly, but I'm intrigued. Looking forward to your thoughts on that concept!
My boss commented just today on how she is having a hard time staying motivated. I actually emailed your video to her! LOVE THIS VIDEO! Adorable baby, congrats!
So I am moving out of state tomorrow and have to finish packing up the house and get the last minute stuff done. Still laying in bed. Needed this. About to put this body in motion. (P.S. You just had a baby. You get more rest now while your body heals😊)
You are such an inspiration!!! THANK YOU!
Your posts are so full, but not too full, of succinct encouragement and tools to make life work .
The effect you have on me is the effect I want to have on others in my life and on my youtube channel.
Your courageously positive approach to the difficulties of life, that shut me down for decades, help me hope to get my life right before I turn back into dust. I am 63, I have 5 children and 7 grandchildren. I have yet to feel like I have made the contribution in life that would allow me to believe I lived well.
Your mother must be so proud of the person of inte-grit-y you choose to be each day.
You are beautiful inside and out and yet you do not post seductive pictures of you to grab views.
You dress with class and self respect. It shows you have confidence in your value as a person. You know that your youth, beauty, and body do not define your contribution in life. Your actions and wisdom do. You are a beautiful example of a confident woman of intelligence, wisdom, and grace
Thank you so so much for sharing your light with me.
Wish I could give you 10 thumbs up, one for each tip. I struggle with health challenges and full time care of my husband who is wheelchair and bed bound.
Your hacks will be watched over and over till I have them memorized!
Such a cute mohawk . Reminds me of our son's hair!😊💞
I put off folding and hanging (just my own) laundry or a week and usually when I sit down to do it, it's less than 15 minutes. If I just did it as it came out of the dryer it's less than 3 minutes a day. 🥴
I have this problem too. I despise putting laundry away and I let the clean clothes pile up until its overwhelming.
I do the same thing. Recently I started putting the clean laundry away. I haven’t timed it yet but I’ve noticed it doesn’t take me that long!🙃☺️ Thank you so much these hacks. I will time it next time
THANK YOU!!!! I have so much trouble with motivation & I’m so overwhelmed by the many things that need to get done, I just shut down and feel so lost…then I found your channel!!! You and your videos really spoke to me and are becoming my guiding light, I feel like there’s hope! Thank you so much!
A couple weeks ago, I was avoiding a particular task. I put it off for two weeks. I finally told myself that I was going to sit down and do it! I proceeded to do NOT do it for another hour. I managed to make myself start and happened to look at the clock when I did. I blasted through it without a problem, and when I ended I looked up at the clock to realize only 25 minutes had gone by. 25 minutes! Two weeks of procrastinating for 25 minutes!
I had been procrastinating editing a 15,000 word short story since I finished it last August....I finally made myself do it last week.
Took two daggone hours. Only two hours.
That hair poking out of the carrier! ❤️ Finley and Miles are just adorable.
Hi Kallie, Finley is adorable! I hope she's as calm as she seems. Even with all the hubbub of filming, she slept through most of it! Your video was of particular interest to me. I have some medical challenges which limit my physical activities a bit. However, I find that, once I'm up and doing something, I'm able to finish the task and maybe do something else as well before I need to rest. I also try to time my rest periods in order to accomplish my tasks for the day. I like making a list to check my progress. Thanks! You've motivated me to keep moving!
Thank you for this information. I’m going through some emotionally painful things right now. It felt like someone just took all of the wind out of my sails. I think my relationship of 38 years is over. It was so overwhelming when I realized it that I felt faint. Your reset idea I hope is going to help me move forward and realize that was then and this is now. I’m going to take 5 big deep breaths and reset my mind and my heat. I’m going to look forward and not look back. God’s got me.
I’m saving this video to watch it when I need inspiration!! You’re a wonderful motivator, sweet mother and great CZcamsr!!!! Thank you for building my confidence in being my not so perfect person and how it’s okay to set the reset button!!! Big hug!!!!
When I watch your videos, Iiterally I feel like I'm listening to a professor teach on motivation. Great job Kallie! Finley is adorable!!
I needed this!!! I swear I was just sitting on the couch debating one more video, or clean up my living room? (Your video popped up at the right time) lol 💜
Same!!
Same here. I can think that I'll get up after one program and complete a task and 5 hours later I'm still there watching more programs.
When I was suffering with depression and lack of motivation, my dear departed Pop would always tell me- “do something-even if it’s wrong, just do something”... He was so right.
She’s so adorable 🥰
Thank you Kelly for these tips. A tip I started a couple months ago... was instead of sitting down first thing in the morning and having coffee... I get up throw on some comfortable clothes and shoes & go around opening blinds starting dish water etc.
I usually spend 30 minutes in the morning on walking around my house doing small task... then I have my coffee so by this time I’m more awake... and it helps me have more energy through out my day... hope that made sense 😂
God knows I need it the older I get. I’d admire you as young as you are you have such a great outlook on life & how to keep yourself upbeat & beautiful. Great job Momma 🤗😊
God Bless you and your family. 😇You are an amazing woman, trying to help so many to have a better life. Thank you for your great ideas!😉
Finley is majorly adorable, couldn't keep my eyes off her cute little fluff of hair. And yes I so needed this and I really gotta try staying in motion as well as that fresh start tip. Thanks a bunch from all three of you (Hi Olive 😉)
Please have Finley in all your videos! Sooo adorable. Congratulations.
I'm a huge list maker and brain dumper. When I'm feeling particularly unproductive I switch my list making to night time. I buy a new spiral notebook and open it up so I have a page on the left and a page on the right. At the end of the day, I write on the left side, everything that I got done that day. On the right, I make my to do list for the following day. This helps me go to bed feeling really accomplished and not worrying about what I need to do the next day because my list is already made. It's amazing how much we get done in a day even if we're not checking off our list items. When I feel under appreciated, I leave this out for my husband to see. It usually helps, lol. Great idea to time yourself doing tasks. I know I think about it way longer than it would take to get it done. Thanks for the great tips.
Wow that head of hair! 💕 congrats and welcome back
I haven't left my bed in 1 whole day.... Good timing! I stay in my bed cause I'm cold walking around my house... So I have made a command decision to put on a sweater. Lmao.
My tenants and family would always complain about coming to my house and being cold and i'd be like until you are paying the bills put more clothes on lol
I am always freezing and I genuinely forget that doing things like mopping my whole main floor warms me up to the point where I need to take off my sweatshirt and fluffy socks.
get a battery operated vest! That has been my lifesaver because I'm cold all the time!
I find a brain dump to be really helpful to do before bedtime if I am going to be very busy the next day. Otherwise I will be thinking of all the steps as I fall asleep, or dreaming about everything I have to get done tomorrow and be constantly waking up. If I just write it all down, my brain can relax, and I can get a good night sleep and have the energy to do all the things the next day.
Truthfully I have been grieving since May 11 2020 my husband died here at home. One day after Mother’s Day and one day before our 37th wedding anniversary. I know I shut down and my children say I have slept for 4 months and have still been shut down....my house is a wreck so overwhelming is the right statement. It’s been 9 months and I’m still having a hard time I’m going to try writing it down and start cleaning one by one... thank you for the ideas 💡
So sorry for your loss, this is my greatest fear. Losing hubby after 40 years of being together. I will be praying for you to get through this. Again, I’m so sorry.
I have been through losing my husband and the first year is so hard. You
are numb. But you will come around, I always had in the back of my mind
I wanted to make him proud of me. And be there for my son because he
lost his Dad and he was going through a hard time too. But how you
Get through is how you get through. When we lose our spouse we lose
Our own future. Not so easy to build a new future but you will.
Great book is Being a Widow it was a great help to me.
God bless you . Barbara
@@bobbiescott4093 Thank you
@@barbaraweston4907 Thank you and I’m sorry for your loss too. It’s like a nightmare and you can’t wake up. I hope you are right about coming around I never thought at age 56 I would be having to start over again alone. I will get the book cause I need all the help I can get. Thank you so much
So sorry for your loss. Grief is the price we pay for love, I know it. It will become easier, I promise ❤️❤️❤️. The Secret Slob CZcams channel may help you. I was overwhelmed with the state of my house and Steph (The Secret Slob) has helped me as she breaks it up for easier chunks to achieve.. There are free print outs to help you clean in each zone of the house, or blank ones to write your own list. It’s a very handy reset tool 🙏🏻❤️ bless you xx
It is 11:00pm and my dishwasher had finished washing the dirty dishes hours ago. I had a couple of dirty dessert plates, a glass and a plastic bowl in the sink that we used this evening. Your video made me get up off the couch and put the clean dishes away so that the new dirty dishes were not left in the sink overnight. I'm 71 years old and am still learning new ways to tackle my chores and stay on top of them. Thanks for your helpful videos, Kallie!
Yess!! Laws of physics! It really works. But I write this as I’m sitting on the couch with my cup of coffee and trying to get motivated to get up. 😂 As soon as I start moving I know I’ll get more done.
I am doing the very same. On the couch enjoying my coffee and looking for motivation to get going. This is a great video with lots of good ideas.
Currently suffering from post Covid fatigue but I can’t wait to implement the tips from this video once I’m feeling like myself again.
Yes! The WFH fatigue is real. Pre-Covid I felt like I had more energy and healthier. I feel like all I do is wake up, work, and gym if I have the energy. I'm so mad at myself some days. Ughhh.
I've watched many motivational videos, and this is the BEST! No fluff, just real life answers and applications. I'll watch this until it's memorized. May the Lord continue to bless you and your beautiful family!
What a beautiful little girl! Congratulations! She doesn’t know it yet, but she’s very lucky to have a mom like you!
I’m a disabled cancer survivor. What I mean is that chemo for leukemia left me with my nerves and my hands and feet fried. It’s called CIPN, which is chemo induced peripheral neuropathy. My hands and feet burn at a level 8 from 1-10 ten being the most pain..I’m like this 24/7 for almost 8 years now. If ANYTHING else is bothering me from being upset to period, to a cold is going on, it increases the already constant 8 pain higher. Now that being said, YOUR VIDEO INSPIRED ME…. AFTER watching this, I thought about what you said for days. Every time I was too tired or burning too much to get up, I thought about “A BODY IN MOTION STAYS IN MOTION “ and what you said. I actually ended up writing it on paper and posting it on my wall. (This Will be turned into a pretty beach wall art to match the theme of my house so I can keep it up and look nice.) THANK YOU!! Sometimes I need a bit of KALLIE inspiration!!
One of my productivity hacks is to allow myself to do a task slowly. I use this tool a lot at the end of the day when I’m tired or just getting off work. My thought is that doing the dishes slowly (so it feels easier) is better than not doing it at all. And it’s a way to feel like I’m taking a break even though I’m not entirely stopping!
Oh my goodness, yes!!!! I have a work at home job and i noticed if I sit down after work, then I don’t cook dinner, but if I keep going then I cook dinner for my family. I have learned sooo much from you!!! I stay motivated cause of you and other you tubers, so thank you. I’m so happy for you and your sweet family and the safe arrival of baby girl.
This was really helpful, thank you! It also makes me feel better about not being so up to do everything I want as a person with a chronic illness who has to rest between things. It makes more sense now and I think this will help me be more kind and patient with myself. Thank you.🤓 Congratulations on your baby!!!! 💗💗💗
Thank You!! After I watched this video, I did get 3 loads of laundry done. I can wait a full month before I have to do laundry, but hate going up and down stairs from the 1st floor to the 3rd floor, and I have bad knees. That is why I always put it off.
your baby quite literally 100% relaxed me.... thank you !
Congratulations mama! Her hair sticking out the top is literally the cutest!!! ❤️
Thank you. I needed some motivation, and you have some good suggestions. One thing I've found similar to your anytime reset is that I was saying, "It's too late to do anything tonight. I'll do it tomorrow." Then I started doing tasks at night. As long as it doesn't take too long, it works.
Is it just me or is she talking faster than normal? Is this what a newborn does to you? Congratulations
Lol! I think it actually does. I'm surprised how put together some time moms can look with a newborn.
That and iced coffees. (Excuse me while I go make one for myself.)
I actually liked the speed, seemed more elaborete somehow
~life's short, talk fast~ lorelai gilmore
Trying to get it all out before it's time to nurse again 💕☺️
Wow you look great after having a baby recently! Like your organization videos
the tip about not consider the rest as reward is really true. for example after doing the chores we can look at the clean room and take time to enjoy the new environment and consider it as the real reward. it motivate deep in the mind that the task is really good and you dont need to wait to the break time to enjoy life. you enjoy the result of tasks.
Yes! Setting a timer works! People procrastinate about making their bed, but if I move slowly and go from one side of the bed to the other it literally takes me 90 seconds!!!! I figure if I don't have 90 seconds then something's wrong! ☺ Thank you for the rest of the awesome tips that I can and will use ❤
I love this! I have used at least a couple of these tips in my everyday life and can say that they do work. Listening to music and making a brain dump/to do list. Those always help me. Excited to put more of these to use. Thank you! Also, Finnley is adorable! 😊
Perfect timing- I have so much to do and don't feel motivated to do any of it.
I just wanted to say thank you. I have been struggling with my own anxiety and stress and your tip to imagine yourself completing the task (& how good it would feel), helped me push through without my usual dread or anxiety. You absolutely saved my day. 🙏
Congratulations, Finley is gorgeous!
Love these tips.
One I've used and love, I can start my day over ANYTIME...this way I only have bad moments, not bad days!
Sue from Colchester CT.
I was bald til almost two. Lol. Now I have enough hair for ten people. I truly love your videos, Kallie. I'm 71 and almost completely unable to walk. But when you show how to time a project so you know it will fit into your day, it makes me feel like I can do a number of things until I can secure a caregiver. Tytyty for your ideas. God bless.
This was right on time. The info about resetting your brain perspective to do a reset makes so much sense. My daughter and I were just talking about procrastination today so this is perfect. And congrats on Finley. She looks so content. A sure sign of the love you have for her. Thanks for sharing her with us.
"Staying in motion" has been so helpful lately: since I work from home, it's awfully easy to get up from the desk and go right to the couch at the end of the day. But if I take out the trash, water some plants, empty the sink, etc before I know it I've done a lot of small stuff with a big impact 🤩
That fresh start talk is so spot on!!! And something I need to work on for sure!
I love this so much! I work in behavior currently and am in grad school for marriage and family therapy - helping others is what I do. But oftentimes it's so hard to motivate and help myself do the things that I need to do, even though I try to help my clients do those same things! The way you reframe motivation and how to get motivated and how long things REALLY take was so lovely. Thank you for this. Also, Finley is a gorgeous precious little angel, oh my goodness.
Kallie, hi! I have been watching your videos on and off for sometime and this is hands down my favorite one I have seen! I love how you talked about the balance between rest and work and taking pride in work and making it fun. I think the elements you touch on start to or have the ability to incorporate an element of mindfulness to daily tasks that is super healthy. Thanks for this video! Also your baby is adorable!
Congratulations on your baby!! 🥰❤ This is exactly the video I NEED
Everything you said makes sense. I was already doing some of that in my mind without realizing it, but you touched on some ideas that will definitely help me out. Thank you! Congratulations on little Finley!
I need to work this out for myself. I am 2 completely different people: at work & at home. Completely a neat freak & work my ass off at work & a complete disaster at home. Things need to change. Any ideas welcome. ❤❤❤
I think the 10 ideas in this video are life changing. I hope some of them can work for you
Well, you are motivated at work by a paycheck to be productive. Find what motivates you at home. Like Kallie says, visualize what it will look like after getting tasks done + think what it will feel like if you don’t. I would do that and then tell myself my judgemental mother-in-law might drop in unexpectedly. That thought was my motivation! Let that feeling of pride in your accomplishments become a goal so that a knock on the door isn’t going to ruin your day. Fill in the blank for yourself where I put “a knock on the door”.
@@kathya9522 Thank you! That's actually a really good idea bc if I think of ANYONE coming by, I'm ready to have a heart attack. Thanks!
I have found this even harder since working from home. I feel like working from home has been even more exhausting than actually leaving the house for work.
@@tulipjadeshop3138 For these reasons, I'm really glad I don't work from home. Honestly, I have no self discipline outside of work & I hate it! Hats off to you for getting stuff done from home
Thank you for these motivational tips! I live in a tiny basement studio with my husband. Our bedroom and living room is one room. So we are lying down a lot. The windows are always closed and there's not much sunlight plus it's been too cold and snowy to go out. It's a temporary situation until things get better but it's been challenging.
Watching you usually ... ok always lol... involves me taking notes 🙋🏼♀️ Then it often turns into a brain dump! Setting the timer does work. Sadly in an Apartment the trash involves me having to get in my car and driving to it. Great tips. Any good tips when deep depression is involved? I lost my daughter & granddaughter. Then my husband of 29 yrs. then my health. Breast cancer a 2nd time involving surgery or 2 or 4! And a random collapsed lung. I lost my house. Yes I have a great Therapist. I know I NEED positive motivation. This was 2012-2014. You’ve helped me in so many ways! Your humor and facial expressions crack me up! Hearing myself laugh, feeling myself laugh is such a good thing. A “me” in laughing motion tend to stay laughing motion thanks to you! Finally (sorry for the novel) the last bit about “reset” was just what I needed to hear.
Thank You for all you do for your subscribers!
EXCELLENT video Kallie! Excellent advice!
Congrats on your beautiful new baby! Her hair is awesome!
OMG that’s just so awesome that you just put your baby sleeping in a carrier and you just continue with your life and film your video. This. Is. Awesome!
Absolutely love the brain dump idea, and the monkey shoving his computer made me laugh out loud! Thank you for what you do and a huge congratulations re sweet baby Finley!
Thank you Kallie, you are always a joy to watch. I had a pull last night and again this morning and had written today off! This evening I felt a little better so popped into CZcams and your video was in my notifications.
I started watching lying on the settee, but you always inspire me; so I got up and thought not about all the things I couldn't do with no mobility; but what I could do... so I went into the bedroom with the laptop and folded the clothes whilst sitting down.
Thank you for keeping it real and reminding me that I can reset at any point. Many blessings to you x
I just love how transparent and honest you are! Congrats once more on your new bundle of joy dear 😍
How can anyone not find your baby adorable. Finley is so cute. thank you for sharing Kallie... from a mumma to another mumma.
Kallie, you embody the things I am learning about recently from other moms/programs that have helped me on my journey through motherhood and navigating cancer at the same time. The 15 minute cleaning hack I got from the Fly Lady, which seriously helped me change my perspective on cleaning. Then your "Restart" is just like MommaStrong's "Begin Again" which is an amazing outlook, cause life gets interrupted by EVERYTHING.
Thank you for the work you do with these wonderful videos. Also, your little one is super duper adorable!
You are so inspiring to so many women! Especially being so down to earth and admitting how some days are better than others. Hey we're all human right! We need all the help we can get. And congratulations on your precious Finley.💕
I use the 30 30 plan to get a bunch done without burning out. Set timer 30 minutes for a task then 30 minutes for rest/tv or social media browsing the 30 for task and on and on. You get more done with the 30 minute deadline and enjoy the downtime more since it is also limited and you don't feel guilty.
You’re so young and so wise! Thank you!
Your family is absolutely adorable! Thanks for giving us a little insight into your life as a Mom!. I loved your motivational ideas! Your videos are great!
"Brain Dump" is a great hack. Used a version of it a few months ago when my flights to get back home were messed with for a second time (I had two lay overs) and I didn't know if I could get back in the country or not (I'm in New Zealand). I listed everything that could go wrong. I saw there were only 4 or 5 situations that could've happened, and reminded myself that whatever happened was out of my control and people were there to help if needed. Great anxiety reliever!
Finley napping is my spirit animal lol. 💜 She’s so precious! Also, Kallie coming at us with the motivational speaking y’all. 😁✌🏻 This is something I really have been needing. And I will start using these!
I just recently discovered your channel. I love it. I’m on Christmas break from teaching and I’m actually getting stuff done. 😀
Also, as a teacher, I think brain dumps would be great to teach students. I would literally do my own brain dump for 5 minutes. So many kids don’t write because of the “I don’t know what to write” syndrome.
Oh. My. Goodness!! I needed this today! Both your motivation hacks & seeing your precious girl. My daughter had hair just like that when she was born. I love your energy! Thanks for sharing that little bundle too. You both gave me motivation. Many blessing to your growing family.
Omg this video popped up on time. It takes me so long to do my hair but it way cheaper to braid it myself ... My house turns upside down during this process .. I try to tell myself if I finished my hair and feed the kids the day was a success. Thank u for being a real person !!
Great points!
Thanks for sharing!
I do a lot of sewing and crafting, very messy. Clean up is a drag. Sometimes I force myself to put away 10 things. It helps.
She is adorable!! Congratulations! Thanks for the tips on motivation!
I just found your channel and I adore you! You’re so wise and it a little bit frustrates me that I’m 51 and learning this and not your age so my kids could’ve benefited from a better version of me, but at least I can learn now!! Thank you!
Thank you, this helped me mentally and then physically get going. Just got home from a weekend vacay visiting my husbands sister and her family. It was hard getting back into my routine today. Especially my laundry 🧺 I have officially folded and put away two piles of laundry so far and plan to keep it going as long as I can till I’m fully caught up.
Beautiful little one! Congratulations Kallie! I need to take the spirit of this video with me to work tomorrow and for the next 5 weeks. I want to keep uploading whilst managing full time work and family life. In 5 weeks I have a couple of weeks of and know I can reset again then. I've made the road map to let it happen so I just need the motivation to make it happen.
Congrats on your precious little one and your sweet growing family ❤️
Super helpful!! Thank you and congrats on that bundle of joy!
I totally needed this!! Especially that reset!! Great job, thanks so much.
Thank you for your tips !! Congratulations on your new family addition!!!
Congratulations on your new bundle of joy. I'm so glad I ran into your blog. Especially the closet, 3 weeks later I still love opening the doors.
Love that reset one! Baby is sooo cute!
Congrats on your baby girl!! 😁💜 Thanks for all you do!
Sweet baby Finley! All great tips, thank you!
These were really useful tips for busy mums and your baby is adorable! 🥰
CONGRATULATIONS on the beautiful new baby! God Bless you and your family❤️
KALLIE this has got to be one of my favorite videos you've done. So encouraging and motivating. I feared walking into it that I would hear things I've heard before, but NOPE! Much brand new information. Thanks, friend! Also, Finley is so precious
