*singing* I’m free….praise the Lord Im free…No longer bound…no more chains holding me!!!
Lol, Yes guys its the 25th of March meaning that I am officially out of rehab!! No relapses or regrets here!
‘Life ain’t been no crystal stair’ these past three months. They have surely have had tacks in it but I sure did step over them. I have to admit that when I first started exactly three months ago, that being December 25… there was no way I thought that I could make it to the end. None whatsoever! If anyone knows me…I’m a spender. Not a material girl but a spender! If I see an item I like I feel as if I should buy it, if it is at a reasonable price of course! I never in a million years thought that I could go three months without purchasing hair products and guess what guys… I did! Now some of you may know that I purchased the tangle teezer…but its not against the rules to buy hair tools so ha! 😛 lol
Anyway, i have to say the most trying thing that got me these past three months is Self Doubt. It is a cruel cruel thing. Your biggest opponent is yourself in most situations and once you have conquered yourself, trust and believe me, you can conquer anything that comes your way!
I felt like this whole challenge helped me see how much of problem I had and how I could actually maintain myself. Now if I am being totally honest, I would say where I lacked in hair products I made up for it with purchasing Jewelry and makeup…But I’m a natural spender that I stated earlier and to solve my spending problem, it will require a step by step process. This is why I am quite pleased that I passed my product junky rehab challenge and I can now create another challenge for myself.
The biggest rewarded besides saving money in this challenge would have to be building up tolerance and self control!
Now that I have self control I don’t always have to see a hair product and go “Hey, maybe I should try that out!”
I encourage you all, if you haven’t already, to try to find something that is weighing you down in life and make a challenge for yourself to stop. It is not going to be easy but in the end it will be rewarding! Trust me!
