make a habit, break a habit link-up #4

not only can i not believe that lauren and i have been linking up for four months now, but i cannot believe that it is already december! where did this year go????
i only have about a week and a half left of my first semester of my masters program, and i am just blown away.

with that said, november hit me like a ton of bricks with a crazy amount of deadlines, and i didn't get to make as much progress as i would like towards my habits!

last month
make a habit: oil pull everyday!
i started off really strongly and then completely forgot. i did, however, FINALLY make it to the dentist after however many years, and though i had some tartar build-up, it was considered normal for a year! i know oil pulling helped, as i could see my teeth becoming less strained and brighter.

break a habit: hitting the snooze button.
this definitely did NOT happen. i snoozed everyday, and sometimes twice per day!

this month!
make a habit: oil pull everyday!
i am going to make this work this month, so i am going to try doing it before bed as opposed to when i wake to save time on my morning routine.

make a habit: stick to the schedule!
as i said before, i only have about 1.5 weeks of school left, which means i have some serious work to finish. i have meticulously planned out my last few days here, and i really need to stick to what i have scheduled to ensure i get everything done and can leave for winter break with no worries or work left to be done.

break a habit: hitting the snooze button.
since i have such a tight schedule, i can't afford to stay in bed any longer than i have set. this will force me to go to bed on time, and for the times that i can't due to insomnia, i can use that time to work so that i can sleep in longer the next day without needing to snooze.

what habits are you making and breaking this month?
link up below with lauren and i between now and december 8 at 11:55 pm.
the link-up will go live on the first monday of every month to share goals and progress!

make a habit, break a habit link-up #3



i am so excited to be back with lauren for the third habit link-up! shout-out to raewyn and cheryn for joining us last time!
october was a much better month for me, so i am super proud of myself and excited to share my progress!

last month
make a habit: spend more wisely!
not only did i successfully complete a 21-day spending freeze (hey-oooooooo!), but i paid off one of my credit cards, revamped my debt plan and budget, and i am actually sticking to them!

break a habit: technology at bedtime.
i didn't keep my laptop completely away from my bed (i like writing my blog posts in bed), but i definitely did put it away when it was time for bed, and i slept much better this month.

this month!
make a habit: oil pull everyday!
as i mentioned in my last habit post, i tried out oil pulling this past month and the benefits have been great! i haven't been doing it regularly, but my tooth and gum sensitivity disappeared and my morning breath has been much better since i began doing it. i want to try it everyday this month!

break a habit: hitting the snooze button.
i hit the snooze button pretty much everyday because i hate breaking away from dreams and the morning in general. however, this means i am either rushing through or skipping things in my morning routine (my 5-minute face was the first to go), or i am barely making it to class on time. this needs to change!
