Lena Dunham Instagram – 10 resolutions for 2025 *that have nothing to do with how you look, how others perceive you OR the internet!*
1. Get a handle on the instinct to self-lacerate when you make a mistake ie “oh gosh I’m so dumb” “ugh what’s wrong with me” “Lena, get it together you WENCH!” because you can HEAR yourself talking smack about YOU! Not very nice, ay?
2. Nothing is so important that you can’t step outside and take yourself on a little journey a few times a day. You wouldn’t leave your dog inside for 24 hours, so why would you do it to yourself? note: If outside is not an option for reasons physical or mental, raise your face to the window for one solid minute.
3. No more setting alarm for a shockingly unrealistic time then pressing snooze for two hours when you could have just had two more peaceful hours of sleep and then awoken refreshed rather than guilty and disoriented with a sheen of flop sweat!
4. Along those same lines, pick a less unkind alarm. Why did you sort through all the options and select the one most likely to drive you to Victorian madness? And try a new one for the new year, to signal a new approach.
5. When in doubt, pick up a book.
6. There’s no award for subsisting on coffee until 4pm, babe.
7. Opposite action! If a text or email stresses you out, go against your instinct to answer in record time and instead take a beat then return to it. If your instinct is to avoid, try facing it the moment it appears. You will be flooded with peace!
8. Find excuses to dance on your tippy toes.
9. Use up your craft supplies- colored pencils, wrapping paper, ribbon, pom poms, googly eyes. You took in a box for your neighbor? Draw a little creature on it, or add a holiday decoration in April. Make a card for your barista. Let’s be all out of decorative juice by September.
10. This isn’t Who Wants To Be A Millionaire- you get as many phone a friends as you need! | Posted on 02/Jan/2025 00:57:38
