Radical Self Love Discussion - Sunday 15 May

Hello

I had a little discussion with some lovely girls in the Radical Self Love group last night on Facebook, was so fun!

Thought I would do a small post on what we discussed and what I think about things, and some ideas that came up etc…..

So one thing we discussed was the times, we all thought it was starting at a different time, I think something got confused in the time conversion! I was online for 2 hours 20 mins in the end and I have a funny story half walk thought to tell you!

By the way, next time we will have a list of all different countries time zones to make it fool proof ;-)

After we discussed that we decided to go on to the radical self love, these things are not in order of what we discussed them in just some random order, as I wish I had made notes or something, I just looked through what had saved of the conversation this morning!

Role Models

We discussed our role models, mines lady gaga, and someone had an amazing idea which I have pasted below, but I couldn’t find her name, so if it was you just say!

Make a vision board, or mood board, with all your Role Models and inspirational people on! Have pictures up so remind you have they all look and how they show their confidence etc..

I am going to do this idea soon, look through my pile of old magazines and anyone who looks inspirational I will cut and paste hehe

About dealing with confidence and being an extrovert


Well I'm not confident very often, this is going to take a lot of explanation.

So I can go up to random people chat to them, when I was younger I even used to jump on random people and hold on for my life! But now days I'm a lot more shy and quite (especially around my boyfriend) I don’t know why, I can easily talk to people but find it a lot harder to trust them!

So I am going to try and be more confident and outgoing this month (except for the fact I do not have much money so that might ruin my plan a little bit).

Jealousy


We spoke a bit about jealousy but I cannot really remember what I said much…

And we also spoke about people who are there one minute your best friend wanting to do anything then they get a better offer and are out of the door in seconds! We don’t like those people!

Goals for the Month


We discussed our goals for the month, they ranged from finding a job to doing more dancing etc, there was lots but here is a list of mine!

·          Be able to Roller-skate Freely and Easily

·          To learn tricks on my roller skates!

·          Go to a roller Disco

·          Be More Confident

·          Manage my money better

·          Do a blog post ever week day!

As you can tell I'm quite in to roller skating and as roller skating is exercise it kills two birds!


Just to tell you my story before i tell you the homework we came up with...


I was going to get pizza and my bf had to go to the toilet, so i thought i would swing on the pull up bar, as i swung it ripped off the wall and i went flying, amazingly i didn't get hurt and i am fine, but it was so funny!

Homework


Now we decided we should set some homework for the next discussion and this is what we decided on! 

Write a story about what you want to be in the future or have pictures etc, you can do it how ever you want, as in a written story a mood board with pictures of things you want to achieve etc, you can adapt this in anyway you want!

It can literally be to your own specification just to five you an idea of what it will be, we wont have to see your Homework, but we can discuss it and see how our ideas differ!

I will let you know when the next discussion will be!

Much Love <3 xxxx

Filofax Placement - Things I love Thursday


Hello my lovely buttercups

So I was looking at my desk and noticed I have a perfectly large space, I was thinking what could I put there, then I realised, if I don’t put my Filofax there its going to mean its going to be filled with RUBBISH and my desk will be an awful mess as usual.

So I took it out of my bag, and look how perfectly it fits, its meant to be, it looks like that space was specially reserved for my Filofax, I didn’t even have to move anything the prefect space was already there!


In the picture is the following: -

PG Tips Monkey
Viking Direct Voucher
Buzz Lightyear Etch a Sketch
Ribena
Tissue
Boss’ Diary (nothing compared to mine!
Some random blue tack
And the other printer on my desk!

So I was wondering where do you keep your Filofaxes when at work?

I used to have mine down on top of my Delightful on the floor (it breaks my heart to know that I do not have a special desk to put my Delightful on. When I first got her I would put down a material napkin, no matter what the surface was to protect her from the mean harsh world, but I don’t anymore).

So to the matter at hand, my Filofax is my Totem as you may know (if you don’t read my previous post about Radical Self Love go have a look now, its only 3 below this one or 4).  And as its also my Radical Self Love bible, I need it next to me to write complements, and other things in, feelings moods (which I completely keep forgetting, and when your on HRT your moods are ALL OVER THE PLACE).

So as its Thursday, one part of the homework is to do a Things I love Thursday page, (Gala Darling does a post every Thursday with things she loves) I believe, and its also going to be interesting to do, so from now on I'm going to try and write one in my diary every day!

I thought I would list a few of the things I love on here too!

So I will write 10 things on here out of the 100’s I can think of!

  1. Marks and Spencer – They do magical lunch, I love to buy all lunch from there.
  2. Blonde Hair – I'm going blonde tonight I will do a before and after photo, that’s what tomorrows post will be about.
  3. Musings of a Caribbean Princess – She really has made my day by putting a link to my “What’s in my bag” post, hehe
  4. My Filofax – I'm feeling a lot of love for it at the moment, A LOT OF LOVE!
  5. London Trips – I'm going to London on Saturday and its my favourite place so I'm pretty excited!
  6. Bic Limited edition 2 colour pink and blue pens – as I seem to be able to just keep buying them from my local Tesco, I have around 30 now!
  7. Dzintra – The lady that drives me in every day, we have such interesting conversations, and the other day she bought me an eye shadow in pretty purple! Its like pearlesent! (ok I spelt that wrong but I don’t know how to spell it)
  8. Getting my Imy back – its nearly back and I feel good, I know most of you wont understand but I will explain one day!
  9. My friends, I have only recently started to get some amazing friends, I was pretty much friendless until around October last year! And now I have two friends who is see quite regularly, and I love them so much, they have really helped me!
  10. Online friends – I do not know what I would do without them, I don’t think I would of come out the other side the way I have, I would never of been able to help all these people if it wasn’t for all them supporting me! I love you all so much more than you can know!

So that is 10 of my things I love Thursday!

Today at lunch I'm planning on getting on with my Radical Self Love homework as its such awful weather and I went to M&S this morning to get my lunch so I have no need to go out!!!

I am seriously so excited about getting my hair done tonight, I wonder how it will look? I will be so disappointed if she cannot die it blonde, anyway good luck imysworld with your hair lol!

Much Love <3 Imy xxx

RADICAL SELF LOVE  - MY BIBLE

So this is my Radical Self Love Bible, and the first two things I have to do is choose a totem and write what I want this all to achieve (I have not done that yet but this is just an introduction to the beginning of my Radical Self Love journey!) So I chose my totem to be a my filofax!!! As im going to take it everywhere with me it s going to be my beauty!

So I first saw this because a friend of mine – Rori – heres a link to her blog http://www.rorirants.com/, posted on facebook a link to a blog post by Gala Darling, and here is the post, http://galadarling.com/article/your-radical-self-love-bible, well that’s all the links for now! And I was totally interested from the minute I saw it!

So I poked around a little bit and found a video on UStream, and you have to pay $7 to watch it, I did, and it was amazing!!! I wrote down so much H/W from it felt like being back at school, so over the next few weeks im going to do post about it as I go on and im also going to upload a Radical Self Love photo of the day every day!

So here is the front to my Bible: -


I stuck pretty sticker jem stone things over some letters and some stars to make it sparkly, I love sparkle!

Here is a few pages of the homework I wrote down: -
