I am an award winning procrastinator! I would win the biggest trophy they make. If they called me to come pick it up, it would take me forever to stop by and get it.

[@Ros-o9e]

I procrastinate too. I try not to and am getting worse. Am making an effort to do better.

[@janetstraw191]

😂😂😂! Me too!

[@rogojo9853]

I’m starting to become a procrastinator. I’ve got to change that or I’ll be stuck.

[@Cali-at-the-beach]

Whoa! Number one is get rid of toxic people.....I needed to hear to this one. And, it gives me 'permission' to stop attending a monthly social gathering that has just become toxic. Thank YOU!

[@LenaS-j5y]

Already got rid of 5 toxic people! I’ve never felt so good!

[@Cali-at-the-beach]

@ did you say anything to them or did you just bow out of invites? I'm thinking of taking the bowing out path.

[@LenaS-j5y]

@ We had words. They no longer wanted me in their lives also. So it worked out fine. If I see one of them in a store I just walk by and say nothing. I feel great! It’s been 3 yrs now.

[@patricialanthier3162]

This is one of the best videos I’ve seen from anyone ever, seriously! We’ve been working on many of these points for a while but wish we’d realized how important this stuff is when we were a lot younger. Prioritizing ourselves isn’t in the least selfish - we’ve actually been able to reach out to help many people in our lives in different ways because we can empathize with how they feel. What’s really important to us is how we make other people feel. If we think about it, that’s our legacy rather than any riches we could ever accrue. Thank you for making this video!

[@stylewithcathyover50]

Thanks Patricia, I appreciate your kind words!💖

[@blinkingowl7778]

Listening to you is listening to a friend.

[@kellyrashedi2303]

Great reminders! I am a procrastinator (I leave the least desirable tasks for very last.), but I make sure they get done by a deadline. I for the most part, have healthy eating down, but I don’t exercise. At age 60, I’ve decided to stop my part time tutoring job, to be able to get into a daily exercise routine. Thank you for making the walking video. My health is more important than the extra money I’m making.

[@lesliewebb1809]

Hi Cathy, I'm a new subscriber. (Yes, I hit that subscribe button) I've had the pleasure of watching a few of your videos now and continuing.. I appreciate your insights and your pleasant and calming energy. Your subject matter really is so much more than fashion, diet and style. Your talks cover many faucets of life in general. I recently and unexpectedly lost my dear husband of 35 years. I struggle often, however staying engaged and productive helps. This video is a great punch list of actions to embrace and follow through on. I rarely ever comment on channels. You're a lovely lady and I wanted to tell you so. Thank you.

[@stylewithcathyover50]

Thank you for leaving your comment Leslie, I'm very sorry for the loss of your husband.

[@lacrimal6336]

I love your earings and necklace. This was nice . I needed to hear these things.

[@stylewithcathyover50]

Thank you! 🤗

[@marilynertz5509]

Cathy, for #6, a very wise woman once told me if you compare yourself to someone else, all your doing is comparing your worst to their best.

[@judithackert1928]

Great video Cathy! I’m 70 and can attest to these suggestions being so smart and DOABLE! Loved this a lot! Thanks for the time you spent putting this together! Enjoy watching you so much!❤

[@stylewithcathyover50]

Thank you!

[@cwm5316]

Hi Cathy, Nice red top. Great topic. It has taken me many, many years to say "no." My only child, a daughter is almost 47 yrs. old. She was diagnosed as bipolar as a young teen. I wouldn't even begin to explain what we have been through with her. I want a relationship with her but she has to accept that I am no longer able to give after years of disrespect and demands. She did give me those 2 wonderful Grandsons who live with their Dads. Have a great week! Carol

[@mollyswanner1607]

Such good advise. I seem to worry about the past alot. I really need to stay looking forward!

[@kimvillasenor3]

Great video Cathy! These are my new Happiness Commandments 💜

[@francinecasale9591]

Hi Cathy , it really shows that you had to self reflect to put this video together. Thanks so much for the hard work and heart that you put into this. I needed to hear a lot of these things. Thank you for starting my day off right today and for always bringing a smile.😊 wishing you a great day❤

[@stylewithcathyover50]

Thank you!💖

[@roseannagross5094]

Amen amen. Amen. You are so right I am 76 negativity people just put me down. Yep you’re right. Stay away from people like that.

[@LaraFabans]

For not comparing myself to others - I am trying to work on not comparing myself to who I was too. Love your whole list. Put ourselves first and be thankful and grateful.

[@betmo]

thank you for saying these points out loud...it's important to hear...

[@nancykavanagh]

When society starts paying my bills!!! best line in the video Absolute truth, we need to stop worrying about what others think, they're most likely worried what others think of them. Take care!

[@norarocha2402]

Thank you, Cathy. Great video today. I liked it . Yes . I need a new mattress. King size. This one is hurting my back tailbone it's way to soft. My hubby and I want a firmer mattress not totally firm a bit cushioney. But we'll ask the sales specialist agent both of us are having backaches. Thanks for your view into things. And everyone is different. And they know whats best for themselves. See you. Im going to watch your decluttering video tonight. ❤❤❤❤ 🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤ ✌️. 👋 😊 youf looking very pretty today.

[@LenaS-j5y]

Great tips!💕

[@delilah1479]

Women tend to "apologize" too often....a bad habit and I had heard that advice years ago, so I catch myself before saying it. As you indicated, there are times when one does need to say "I am sorry."

[@Ann-mn3xd]

Red is a great color for you

[@susanbanton6338]

Excellent video, Cathy!

[@patjonker6576]

A really thoughtful list. Thanks for these reminders

[@marydonahue3834]

I love your look!

[@MaureenHall-wr1nt]

Love this. You are right on. This is good to hear and remind yourself of these things. Looking pretty today in red.

[@RitaVernoy]

A great list, Kathy❤

[@stylewithcathyover50]

Thank you! 🤗

[@cindyonyoutube]

Thanks for these excellent ideas!

[@TransformInProgress]

Hi Cathy- Great tips! I’ll try to keep these in mind. ❤❤❤

[@juliemoore6957]

All soooo true! Preach it, Cathy!!!❤

[@karen-3871]

Number 4, that used to be me. It was my way of keeping the peace and it made me miserable and was ineffective!! Done with that! This is such a great video and a good reminder to monitor where we are putting our focus. I like the idea of challenging ourselves to conquer fears. Mine is claustrophobia. Going to work on that like you did on the bridge. Procrastinating used to be a way of avoidance, but when I stopped, it was truly liberating! Number 15...so true!!! Thank you for this video...I enjoy things like this!

[@Belle90029]

I absolutely love this video, Cathy! Thank you! ❤

[@janetyeager4861]

Kathy, you're an amazing person, always so positive. Thank you for inspiring me to do better in so many ways.

[@stylewithcathyover50]

Aw, thank you Janet! 💖

[@susantaylor6957]

You are so correct! Good advice

[@susanspencer1267]

I will have to try some of these tips!

[@IreneJones-cl8qr]

A wealth of good advice, thank you. I used to tell my son when he was young and wondered why we didn’t have holidays etc. that it is what we own, not what we owe. He still repeats that to me, in his mid-30s.

[@roxannesimpson5736]

Thank you Cathy!!

[@Joanthomp]

Love these tips! Thanks for posting them.

[@stylewithcathyover50]

Glad you like them!

[@andrearoberts2776]

What a wonderful, uplifting video! Thanks for making it. Many of these points really resonated with me.

[@stylewithcathyover50]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@rosieschweebie]

Hi Cathy, I told my husband to stop saying “it’s ok”when someone has said or done something that’s not right. Sometimes it’s really not ok, and you need to say something. I deal with comparisons too. What helps me when I start to compare myself, is that I immediately start to be thankful for what I have, and gain inspiration when I see other people succeeding. I want to genuinely be happy for them, and I am.❤

[@stylewithcathyover50]

That's great advice my friend!

[@SusanGW]

Yes, I am a procrastinator! I do it with some things, but not others. Good video Cathy❤

[@tinalewis6782]

Hi Cathy - Kudos again to your fabulous workout video! OK viewers, go do it now!

[@blinkingowl7778]

Thanks!

[@donnabeach1250]

What a great thought provoking video Cathy. Really appreciate the hearing the 15 things to ditch.

[@cherrylong9551]

I’m a terrible procrastinator. It truly brings me a lot of stress

[@orosco97]

Hi Cathy. I will be pondering this list. On another note, love your top and your hair looks super pretty too 😊

[@stylewithcathyover50]

Oh thank you!

[@alanabailey6705]

[@roseannmazik3737]

Thank you so much for this video

You are so welcome!

[@concernedcitizen4031]

I really dont care much about what people think about me. I try to be cheerful most of the time buy sometimes you just have to vent.

[@concernedcitizen4031]

When walking its better to pick up the pace than a slow stroll. You can slow down at home.

[@pamelab1175]

We moved to get rid of all the toxic people we were related to. And some other people. We have always kept promises we have given our grandkids. There parents don’t do it. But we do. If we can’t we don’t make the promise. I don’t compare myself to others. I stopped that a long time ago. And I don’t care what others think. I’m sure I still carry grudges. But I don’t see any of those people. So I have forgotten some of them.i realize I do complain when we have gloomy weather. I have never blamed others. My oldest daughter has always played the victim. And that makes me so mad. I was never a procrastinator. But my husband is. And now I think I’m worse than he is. I get mad at myself for not doing things I should be doing. I do pay attention to my health. I had a lot of problems over ten years ago. And I ignored things back then. I do way better now. This was a great video to watch. These are all great tips to just be a better person. I think the older you get, the less you care what others think about you. And you don’t really bother with other people. And we are all better off that way.

[@Teresa-K]

Hi Cathy! You make some very good points to follow. Here are a couple of sayings I like. “ If you spend your time chasing butterflies, they’ll fly away. But if you spend your time making a beautiful garden, the butterflies will come to you.” “When you talk, you are only repeating what you know. But if you listen, you may learn something new. “ -Dalai Lama Love and Kindness, Teresa

[@stylewithcathyover50]

Love both of those sayings Teresa! 💖

[@kimdambach505]

A much needed reminder

[@dianethompson6804]

Someone said this about fear: F- false E- evidence A- appearing R- real.

[@stylewithcathyover50]

Never heard that before, thanks for sharing.😊

[@concernedcitizen4031]

I cant do the bridge thing or even ladders past the 1st couple of steps. I start feeling shakey or off balance

[@00000kate00000]

Amen

[@randirigsby4374]

Great suggestions, do I have permission to get rid of my husband? He’s toxic and negative and a complainer!

[@betmo]

yes...if you're no longer compatible...show him the exit...

[@NathalieEwanchuk]

❤❤❤❤

[@Treacle899]

Ah the health thing. I noticed a breast lump. Probably a cyst. My sister has had 2 drained and there is zero breast cancer in my family. I put it off. Other stuff to worry about, inconvenient time, etc (procrastination too). It wasn’t a cyst. I opted for a double mastectomy and margins were clear, but one lymph node was positive. Had I not waited would we have got it before it made it into the lymph system. I’m 2.5 years out doing great and had an easy time with surgery and radiation (low onco score-no chemo). But it’s there in the lymph system and I worry that “round and round it goes, where it stops, nobody knows.” Will I be so lucky, will I even know if it goes to brain or spine or somewhere else before it’s too late. I don’t dwell on it, but it does have space in my brain. And it was all probably avoidable.

[@stylewithcathyover50]

I'm so sorry! I can relate to what you said about it having space in your brain, that's how I feel with my husbands cancer; it's always just there. I am glad that you are doing well now.

[@Treacle899]

@@stylewithcathyover50 Nah, don’t be sorry. It does change you, if you’re lucky in a lot of good ways. Patience, stronger relationships, letting the unimportant stuff go. Tomorrow is never promised so I’m living my best life and looking good 👍. And I think you may relate to that as well. Been on both sides and definitely harder for the person without cancer.

[@reginamay2767]

Well I'm trying to get rid of this lady that wants to walk with me and she's starting to get on my nerves she wants to talk about her family and I don't really feel like hearing about family squabbles I just want to walk and get my exercise but all she wants to do is talk about her family and how her family treats her I'm getting ready to tell her no I don't want to walk with you anymore because you are too negative. She's gotten on my last nerve. I agree with you get rid of toxic people because I think this lady is very toxic to me. Great tips cathy, ♥️

[@mpagemi]

These are really good. Thank you, Cathy!
