Why I Am Choosing Self Care for 2019

I have thought long and hard as to what I wanted this platform to be. I wanted to share what I’ve learned about taking care of my skin with others. That was what I thought I wanted Peaberry Agenda to be about. But it just didn’t feel right. I had a high for the first couple of weeks, then I just stopped doing it. I love skincare, but that’s not all I love. I wanted to keep myself accountable for doing my morning and night time skincare routine. It was a goal I’ve wanted to have because I was never continuous with my routine. I would always stop with weeks where I just got lazy to take care of my skin. I thought if I tried different products, it would get me motivated to continue to do my skincare routines. But trying new products means spending more money. With a wedding and a home to pay for, there was no way I can keep up with the costs of purchasing new products to try.

I was in another rut and I was unhappy. I didn’t know what I wanted to do. When I was thinking about what I wanted to accomplish for 2019, I thought about losing weight, taking better care of my skin, eating healthier, being more active, being mentally here. And it dawned on me. I really need to learn to take care of myself inside and out. I am a big mess and if I am going to get married in 2020 and have children someday, is this really the person I want to bring along with me into the future? I don’t think so.

So in order for me to be confident with myself and my life, I need to first learn how to love myself. This is my journey of self care and self love. And if you are on that journey too, let’s connect and learn from one another.
