Weekly Happening- June 26
Productivity Tip of the Week
This week, I’m personally focusing on “getting ready” in the mornings. I don’t need to do a full face of makeup and curl my hair or anything like that, but some mascara and doing something to my hair every day does wonders for my productivity. Cute athleisure or a dress for working from home also makes me feel motivated to get more done professionally and around the house. I know first hand how tempting it is to lounge around in the house while working from home with comfy sweats on and a big t-shirt, but this week I am going to make an effort in my appearance and my outfits! This way I’m ready for content creation or running errands as well.
Motivational/Inspirational Message of the Week
I heard something on Instagram this week that made me think twice about how I’m spending my time. The message was about how we get 24 “chips” every day to gamble on in the game of life. We already use 8 of those chips on sleeping, so what do we do with the rest? We can put 2 of those chips on connecting with friends and family, 5 chips on work, 2 chips on working out, etc. It can be so easy and tempting to spend a few chips in your daily life on staring at your phone and scrolling social media. But putting your chips in that category isn’t going to yield you any “winnings”. When you put your chips in the facets of life that yield success, money, relationships and confidence, you are placing safer bets- more lucrative days ahead. When you waste those chips on time sucking activities, the house is going to win.
I hope that wasn’t as hard to follow as it was to write LOL.
Outfit Favorites of the Week
Surprise, surprise, Lululemon is my favorite AGAIN. I know, I’m OBSESSED. I work from home now, and Lululemon is just chefs kiss in the athleisure world. I love the way their clothes feel, the way they fit, and the way they move with my body so I can go from my desk to a workout immediately.
This week, I got another crop tee because I’ve been wearing the one I had almost every day and missing it when it was in the dirty clothes. I got my first one on sale and since have purchased 2 more at full price because they are so worth it with as much as I wear them and how soft they are. They hold up in the washer and the one I’ve had for over a year still looks brand new. With all my Lululemon, I wash on the delicate cycle in cold water and I always line dry.

Books I’m Loving
I am on book 8 of 8 in the Blue Moon series, and I’m going to miss it! I have really enjoyed the last 2 books the most for some reason, and the ones in between I was “meh” about. The Couple Next Door was INSANE and I read the entire book in 3 days. I would stay up at night until 1 am because I couldn’t stop reading it! I highly recommend that one!
Xoxo, Jess
