To those struggling with doing one meaningful task (like I usually do) I have something to add to what Rachel said in the video. I saw a tiktoker say he incorporated (this is silly, I know but if it works it works) a motto that says "meh might as well". He'll challenge himself to do one small task amongst a larger challenge like fold one piece of laundry. And then he'll trick himself into saying "meh might as well fold another one" and then boom the task is done. It's working for me when working out. Just one exercise and then boom i completed a 30 min workout.

[@RachelVinn]

I LOVE this!!

[@michelle-fn5jm]

Omg yes… the nights or even entire days before work I always feel are a waste. I get anxiety that I can’t do anything at all because I need to be up early the next day, or that I don’t have enough time to have fun. I try to remind myself that I’ll never be as young as I am today and that tomorrow isn’t promised.

[@RachelVinn]

Yesssss, we just need to get out of our heads 😣

[@melissag8270]

I used to feel the same, I’m slowly getting better about structuring my time better so I can utilize the time before and after work

[@zahra2753]

I recommend the book "deep work" bc the author writes about "a day in the day" where he writes about how to get things done after work and it's an overall very good book. I think you'd like it!

[@RachelVinn]

Thank you for the rec! I’ve been looking for a book and this sounds good

[@5tephanieOS]

This sounds so interesting!!

[@edwardcm9175]

I get in early in the morning to work at 7, but I jog for 30 minutes. I go to work, then after work i study a chapter of the bible. After my bible study, i'm free to do whatever i need to and it keeps me diligent. Also, i heard somewhere that if you have to do something, do it within the first 5 seconds of thinking about it, if you don't you will most likely not do it.. so that's my 5 second rule to starting to do anything.. first 5 seconds I start

[@RachelVinn]

The 5 second rule is so crucial. If i sit there for too long it’s game over!!

[@edwardcm9175]

@@RachelVinn yup hhaa

[@arlenevillanueva7585]

I can't go to sleep so early! I will wake up during the night, then be tired when I get up before 6:00AM. I'm most productive in the morning after coffee but lack time because of work. Don't go out or plan things for weekdays either but I'm changing my vision of how my weekends should be. I'm in my 40's so I must live life now with meaning.

[@allidowney1884]

Love the advice for doing one meaningful task a day! I definitely relate to getting overwhelmed with wanting to do everything 💚

[@maecurtis]

I love how open and honest you are about working. I also have a full-time job and struggle sometimes with meaning. 💚💚

[@CarlynSophie]

I totally am the same with my routines. It's hard to be a little flexible for me. But what I do now is separate things that are important for me, I wanna get done without compromise. And other things, would be great if I got them done, but I can also do it tomorrow or the day after. This gives me some room to be a little more flexible

[@RachelVinn]

Well said!

[@SelenaTrevino]

wow I love that you guys do a devotional together, my BF wants to do that but I'm not sure I want to do one together until I first get better at doing a devotional on my own. I def want to dedicate more time to God, love that you incorporate it into your vlogs, such a blessing ❤️

[@shailajaprakashkarbil4099]

I am happy to see you again Rachel, be honest as your are.

[@JennaHong]

Love you, the heart I’m giving you is a fiery one just because ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 you constantly inspire others to be more minimal, down to earth, faithful, and funny and I love watching you for so many more reasons, that’s just a few

[@estelacastro9367]

Your videos help me make it through my work day when I'm having a slow day! 💚

[@dikshaphale1199]

The one meaningful thing idea is so productive. And it actually helps.

[@user-di8kl7dx1b]

Lol I relate to you so much! I work the 8-5 life too and it just feels like I’m really restricted. I don’t like doing anything after work cause before you know it it’ll be time for bed and onto work the next day. I honestly wish I could work 4 10 hour shifts so I could have a 3 day weekend. I think I just want more flexibility. I also run errands during my lunch breaks (on the days when I have time for a lunch break lol) so I don’t have to do it after work.

[@RachelVinn]

Same same same. 3 day weekend would be amazing!!

[@blueberrybud123]

Vinny is truly a queen 👑 also love how levelheaded you are, so glad I found your videos!💚

[@RachelVinn]

Wow, thank you!

[@TinkOutLoud]

I have the same mental block! So, far I’m in the “I’ll consider going out with a friend on a Wednesday, maybe “ phase. - it shouldn’t be this hard just live! 😫 lol

[@jillpienaar8064]

Gosh your comment regarding the mental block and routine... Oh my word.... It hit me. YES... I'm there. Its a constant struggle. My friends have given up on me during the week. It shouldn't be like this,😢

[@Steph-jh8ui]

I’ve caught up on all your videos and I was telling my bf how inspiring you’ve become regarding minimalism, I’m decluttering my closet as we speak 💚💚

[@asyamsa]

Hi Rachel, I love the fact that u indirectly remind me to stay sane and take some breath in this hectic week. I do feel pressured if I dont do one of things that I like (and keep me calm) in a day. And yes, ur videos really calm me to watch, thankyou! Have a great day🤍

[@RachelVinn]

You got this!

[@paulinearcita4759]

I just started working as an intern and you really helped me motivated!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@ludmilamaria7349]

Loooove your videos!! like really! You are a great inspiration. When I was working 8 to 5 I went home and do nothing because I was so tired, but back in time I could have done an effort to have a nice week and a nice routine which means a nice life!! Abolutely I'm going to try it in my next job! Thanks you

[@RachelVinn]

You got this and god bless 🙂💚

[@lajawski]

I love your videos! 💚💚 Keep them coming!

[@chalgo7508]

Finding you in my recommendation is such a refreshing surprise. I'm binge watching your very relatable and relaxing vlogs. Keep em coming Rachel 💗☺️

[@RachelVinn]

Thank you so much💚

[@JennaHong]

Happy Monday Rachel uploaded this morning ❤️‍🔥

[@isle_lee]

Yess, totally relate with living by a routine. Especially with wfh, I pretty much thought I should have more time to be able to do things & go out on a weekday but I lowkey panic when I’m away from my laptop during workdays. It’s inspiring to see you try and step out of your routine ❤️

[@RachelVinn]

Oh no! I can imagine wfh brings its unique set of challenges :/ wishing you luck!

[@Eulschen94]

I love this video! You are really inspiring 💚

[@cashmeinparadise]

💚💚 wow so close to 25k!! I’ve been watching since you had about 8k.... so awesome!!

LOVE this vlog🤍. I also love the way how you talk about the Lord❤️ & scriptures every vid. Your my number one top fav KZbinrs🤍🤍, much love!!!🤍🤍

[@sabrinajohn753]

Love the whole vibe! And vinnnyyyyyyy. 💚

[@Ruchita_G]

Thanks for sharing your routine! Definitely a great idea to schedule some time with your spouse to do a devotion or just talk about your week. Vinny is such a great kitty! My cat Billy loves to practice his vocal exercises around 5:30 in the morning. :-)

[@RachelVinn]

Billy is most creative in the morning just like me 😹

[@himanigaikwad733]

You're videos truly lighten up my day!! Keep Growing!! 🥰 Lots of Love!! 💚💚💚

[@RachelVinn]

Thank you so much 😀

[@jillpienaar8064]

You guys are the sweetest ❤️😍

[@GeorgieCora]

Love the honesty. I have an hour set aside each day where I focus on something creative to help give my day variety. For me it's first thing in the morning and it's something so small but makes me really happy.

[@RachelVinn]

That’s amazing!! I feel like if we all did this, we would all be better people 💚

[@GeorgieCora]

@@RachelVinn so true!

[@bigsamfanai27]

Love seeing vinny in your vlogs and that nice cream looks yummy! Also struggling with doing meaningful thing after work. For this week I've been reading at least 1 chapter of a novel. And trying my best to at least settle for bed by 9-10pm

[@RachelVinn]

what novel are you reading?

[@lifewithjown]

@@RachelVinn im reading Finlay Donovan is Killing It by Elle Cosimano. Its a mystery but light, funny, sarcastic and easy to read.

Man!! this guy is lucky to have such a beautiful and devoted wife. Wish I could find the same as her.

[@ameliarutter2424]

I just made the chocolate version of banana nice cream you did in a video! It's really good 👍

[@RachelVinn]

Yay!! I prefer it the chocolate way 😍

[@tourynhudson4043]

I definitely recommend The Flash and Arrow. Those two are my absolute favorites.

[@RachelVinn]

Good to know!

[@jeanlaubenthal698]

What a great use of time. Spousal connection time is a great idea. You may also like the Marriage Minute along with other products (including getting ready for children) by The Gottman Institute. Highly recommend as promotes real grounding as a couple which is best foundation. PS sometime guys fuss but it seems they are appreciative of effort and leadership. Not any make wrongs just guiding the relationship to fully express the best of both of you.

[@RachelVinn]

I'll check it out! :)

[@MzCrayKray]

What a lovely couple. I really want to get up at 5am. I set my clock everyday for but I hit the snooze over and over until 7am. Smh. I think I have a sleeping disorder or something. I can't go to sleep at night usually I go between 1 and 3 am. If I try to go to sleep earlier like 9:30pm I wake up in 4 hours. Smh

[@twinklesajan2368]

Love Ur vidz❤️❤️

[@RachelVinn]

thanks :)

[@SondaLovesElly26]

My morning routine. Wake up, brush teeth, throw on a shirt, grab an apple and out the door.

[@RachelVinn]

[@melissamahabeer7332]

Hey Rachel! Love your vids. How did you get Vinny not to jump on the counters?

[@RachelVinn]

We always moved her off the counter immediately from a very young age and said “get down” in a stern voice. She still tries to hop on every now and then but when we say “get down” she listens. Fun fact she has never jumped on the counters where the stove or sink is, she’s only ever jumped on the island which is so crazy to me

[@alexceralde2854]

Hello. Nice seeing AJ. Regards.

I don’t, but I’m planning on getting a new camera and mic :)

[@RachelVinn]

it sucks :/

[@bpal5644]

What time does your partner get up in the morning if he gets to bed at 11/12? I took your advice to do one meaningful thing each night from one of your other videos and it’s helped me feel better about how I spend my time after work.

[@RachelVinn]

Amazing! So glad it’s helping ☺️ he gets up at 6:20 and starts work at 7. He doesn’t require much sleep (lucky)

What birth control do you use? I just started watching your videos and it’s really soothing and chill. I’m definitely a new sub and felt like I’ve been a part of the family for so long🙂

[@RachelVinn]

I’m on the pill! It’s a generic brand but the equivalent would be seasonal I think

[@garybcrn2774]

so so gorgeous!😍🇵🇭

[@Dermatillomaniac]

Would you ever do a "What I spend in a week/month?" Know that's sort of personal, but you being frugal I think it would be interesting. 🌼
