As humans, we're easy to forget what we have and dwell on what is missing. Seeing the cup half empty for a higher % of times.
That's why it's so important to self reflect whenever you can and remind yourself of the 50% that is full and content.
So for this post, I just wanted to share some easy questions to hopefully remind you of happier moments and be gracious towards yourself. Especially with everything that's going on around the world, we need to first and foremost take good care of our body and mind if we want longevity in the change we make.
REFLECT
- How did this month go? Rate 1 - 5 (5 being greatest, and 1 being the least)
- List some Happy Moments from this month.
- List Lessons learned this month.
- How can you take what you've learned and improve next month?
- Things you're looking forward to this month?
- What is your focus/goals for the new month?
- How will you improve your wellbeing in the new month?
And before I leave, I'll also leave you this quote which always helps me when I feel a little defeated:
"Nothing is permanent. Everything is subject to change. Being is always becoming." ~ Buddha
Religion aside, I've always found this saying so freeing. It allows me to know that it's ok things aren't exactly going your way. Or the world seems a little chaotic around you. Cause just like how it changed into being what it is, it will also change out of it.
With that, I wish everyone a beautiful weekend ahead!
See you on Monday with another #Fitspo post!
Much love

Missguided had been my go-to for cute home wear during this quarantine.
Especially when they have their insane sales like right now. 50% off + Additional 10% with code.
Here are some great steals I found for the week :)
Use code HEAT10 for extra 10% off

This season I'm obsessed with the minimal Parisien look as I've mentioned in one of my previous posts.
And this look is definitely taking inspiration from it.
White, Khakis and brown tones are a must for me this summer.
Looking chic but staying comfortable is key!
Check out the links below to create the look above!

2020 has definitely been eventful, to say the least.
On one hand, I celebrated with my family and friends and very luckily got married right before the quarantine lockdown. Yet, on the other hand, I spent close to half a year at home. With so much indoor time, I tried to maintain my focus with various creative outlets. Be it Instagram (gigil4m & styledbygl4m), or lately the infamous TikTok as well.
But it also made me realize that I could and should push that creativity onto my blog as well.
I've been seeing weekly new follows through Bloglovin' and it's definitely fueling the motivation. Also, shout out to everyone that's new to my virtual space, and thank you for the interest!
I wanted to provide more content here so starting today my weekly scheduled posts will consist of the following:
MONDAY FITSPO
This content is probably what most of my readers have been used to seeing. Weekly styled outfits with shoppable links for OOTD ideas. So now it will be continued on Mondays. 😘
HUMPDAY SALE FINDS
I'm a HUGE online shopper and I love a good deal! So why not share it with everyone right? Plus by Wednesday we all need some retail therapy for a mid-week break from work 😜 ! Every week, I will feature a specific store with the-day-of sale finds. Also, include any additional discount code and cashback opportunities if available.
GRATEFUL FRIDAYS
Fridays, I want to keep the content a little more fluid. Focus on sharing from things that inspire me, how-tos, and even just thoughts of mine to help me, and hopefully, also help you refresh and start the weekend on positivity. 😊
Once again thank you for the follow and motivating me to keep writing, especially during these unprecedented times. Sending much love!
