hey what's up, I am muchelleb and in this video
I am doing my Sunday life admin routine
or I also call it my Sunday just like
get your shit together routine
it's my day where I do all the things that I hate doing
like the cleaning the cooking
everything like that so I just wanted to
show you guys through what I would
usually do of a Sunday
having a day every week that's focused on
just like getting all of those little things done
that I don't like
I see as a form of self care
because if the little things in my life aren't together
my space isn't clean, my food isn't cooked
I freak out
and also its a way to get you ramped up
for the rest of your week
like ready to go energized, focused on the right things
so without further ado
I will get straight into the routine
so I start my life admin day out with a weekly review
I feel like this is so important in keeping me focused
keeping me reflective
and just generally on my game
I've done this for a long time
but the actual process itself has changed for sure
I've customized it, made little alterations here and there
right now I start out with a big brain dump
of all the little to-do items weighing on my mind
I write down what I did for my goals in the week prior
what I'll do for them in the week ahead
what went well in the last week
and I'll look at the things that I actually have on
for the next week
so any to-do items that I write down in my weekly review
like goal related to-dos or my brain dump to-dos
I actually put them straight into my Google Keep app
I know it seems a little redundant to put things on paper
then put them in my to do app
but for me it's about letting my thoughts
float onto paper and then putting them
in a trusted space that
I don't have to look in two spots for my to-do items
so I end my weekly review with a little checklist
of the life admin tasks that I need to get done
because that's what this whole day or
this whole life admin routine is all about
these are the things that I've identified
as almost like stress relievers for me
getting these basic, really annoying things
that I hate doing, done
it removes the stress from my life
and lets me feel on top of it
and just ready to get things done
so after my goal review
I always just start with doing my washing
it just feels like a really quick win to
chuck your clothes in the washing machine
and having your washing clean, dried, and hung up
for the week feels like a freaking weight off
if I skip even just a week of washing
I know that every morning of me running around
stressing out over what to wear
so I've made it a part of my life admin days
so that I can avoid that feeling and
create stress free mornings
so while the washings running I might clean my room
wipe things down and put things in their place
my environment and my space have a
massive impact on my mood, my productivity
I find it so much easier to get things done
when everything's clear and clean
I usually spend like 10-15 minutes like every few days
just making sure my room is giving off good vibes
but on Sundays I usually like up it a little bit
do extra things, wiping things down
vacuuming if I'm feeling a little crazy
then moving along through the kitchen
so I'll put away all my dishes
fill up the dishwasher, run it if need be
I do a proper cleanse of the sink
clean out the fridge if I need
it feels so good on a Monday morning
to walk out to your kitchen and have things
just super fresh, clean and filled with good food
ready for the new week
so once my clothes are good to go
I prop them on the line
I hate using the dryer cuz it ruins my clothes
and usually I’m fortunate enough to have
dry weather here
next up I clean my bathroom, keep in mind
I don't actually stick to this order particularly
so usually after I’ve cleaned all my spaces
I meal prep even though this gets the kitchen dirty again
I have a clear space to work on
so I prep my meals on the Sunday because firstly
I don't want to spend fifty dollars a week on lunch
and also there aren’t many plant based options
around my work so I want to make sure that
I'm feeding my body something reasonably healthy
and having everything just in containers
like ready to just take to work
makes my day so much simpler
so this week I decided I wanted to go
with these burrito bowls
I have them every once in a while
this isn't the best example of a good meal prep
because I just literally make sure that there's quinoa
separated into containers with
everything else heaped in and
I take the lettuce and what not separately but
even just knowing what you're going to bring for
lunch every day helps
side note, this meal is far better if you're less lazy
and you mix the refried beans with capsicum
and mushroom and also add some avocado
in there, probably a little more salsa
and I usually finish things up with taking my
clothes off of the line and putting them
all the way into the designated spaces
so that I have it really easy every morning
when I want to get dressed for work
and those are my basic life admin tasks
so usually on my life admin day
I also like to do a little sprint through any
like random little to-dos
for example, today I emailed my real estate guy
I downloaded a program that I’ve been meaning
to download for a long time
changed one of my brake lights
and threw the other one out
I put some clothes in my car
that needed to be transported
just little annoying tasks I
like to keep them all for the one day
because I find I just don't get the time
to do those annoying tasks in the week
