I feel like reading books is becoming a forgotten art in the age of the internet. And that makes me sad.

As a kid, I used to read books all the time. But then around middle school the internet became a big thing in my little life and I began reading more random internet junk than actual legitimate literature. It’s like when I discovered Jack In The Box for the first time in college and it became my go-to food source. Fresh and healthy vegetables, be gone! Obviously, that wasn’t a great time in my life.

Now that I’m out of collage and I’m no longer being forced to read anything I don’t want to, I’ve rediscovered my love of reading for relaxation and entertainment rather than watching TV or scrolling Instagram. Funny how that works, huh?

What you do in the morning really does set the tone for your entire day.

I’ve always kind of known this, but like any millennial, I have tried countless shortcuts to try to hack the system. Needless to say, nothing works. I hate to break it to you, but if you want to be productive, you have to get started immediately. Lounging for the first half of your day and then expecting to get stuff done in the second half just isn’t practical.

These are the 10 things I do pretty much every morning. I skip some steps on weekends, but overall I try to keep the timeframe as steady as possible. Knowing exactly what to to each morning is super helpful in getting me out of bed and off to do something, even if that “something” is just getting comfy on the couch with a good book.

This morning routine works amazingly well for me, and I know it can help you too!

Beauty guru culture has revolutionized how we wear makeup. That’s a good and bad thing.

Don’t get me wrong, the surplus of makeup tutorials out there on the internet have taught me so much of what I know about makeup. But I have also picked up some bad habits and methodologies along the way.

Of course, I’m not blaming the beauty community. These beliefs manifested from my own shortcomings, and I want to make a conscious effort to abolish them. These are things that have changed the way I go about my beauty routines, and make me behave in ways that don’t really suit my personal style. I feel like it is time to address these things because many of these habits totally go against the ideology of The Millennial Maven!

Maybe you have unwittingly fallen into some of these habits or beliefs too. If so, let’s change that!
