How I found the motivation, time and energy to be more eco-friendly. ✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When I moved to Malaysia in november 2016, I was shocked to discover that sustainability was not a thing. There were no recycling bin and I could not buy courgettes without plastic wrap. ❌
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As I realised that the eco-friendly message was not spread everywhere, I launched Attitude Organic in september 2017 to share my journey towards a more sustainable lifestyle. AND DAMN it was so hard! ????
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Not only it was difficult to find green alternatives in Johor Bahru (the city I lived in) but i did not know where to start. So I found myself unmotivated and stuck in my old habits. ❌
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I was for sure already reducing my impact but I remained in my comfort zone. I was aware I could do more but I lacked motivation, time and energy to do so! ❌
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I would buy no diaries at home but have 4 cheese pizza out with friends because that was convenient. But deep down, I was disappointed in myself. ????
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And then I found a METHOD that works. I started fixing goals for my eco journey and I commited to take one step at the time. I focused on less things but better and I made myself accountable. ✅
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That was an absolute game changer for me. I started feeling GOOD! No more confusion, doubts, guilt or overwhelm. I had a plan that motivated me to move forward and it was exciting and manageable. ????????
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One step at the time, I was becoming the best version of myself and that was so satisfying. Since then, I feel proud about all the efforts I put in and I know for sure that I am part of the change. ✨
