Daily Achievements!

Hi forum friends! I've decided to start a new thread on Daily Achievements because I suffer from depression as one of my mental illness and that means it's often hard for me to remind myself that I do actually things in my day, no matter how small they may be. I thought forumites could post here a daily achievement or 2 so we can remind ourselves that we have done something good each day. It can be as big or as small as you like. Just as long as what you did makes you proud and happy.

I'm tagging @roses @Bow @Shaz51 @BPDSurvivor @saltandpepper @Daisydreamer @Former-Member @Former-Member @Former-Member @TideisTurning @Former-Member @frog @Sans911 @outlander

in case you might be interested as well as anyone else who wants to join in!

So, to get this discussion started, I'll post my achievements today which are:

- I had a gorgeous cup of tea which helped me deal with some anxiety I was experiencing;

- I paid my car registration which was due today.


See what I mean about achievements? Mine may seem small or irrelevant to some people but to me, because I have depression, these are actually major in the scheme of my life. I look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with.

Re: Daily Achievements!

Thinking of you @TAB re work and @Judi9877 re emergency dental.

I've got bad anxiety. re work mostly.

But trying to look at what I've done, and take what I have to do one step at a time. So far have:

  • Had a shower
  • Done some yoga
  • Worked out what's for dinner
  • Made a list for the day ahead

Hope you have some wins today everyone, however small.

Hi @Anastasia @LostAngel @BPDSurvivor and everyone passing this way.

Good luck @TAB

Sorry your anxiety is giving you grief, mine is also over the top today, I'm too "in my head". Need to do some grounding I think?

Hugs @frog

Hi @Judi9877 @LostAngel @TAB @Anastasia @frog

Some great achievements everyone!

I saw the poem @Judi9877 it is wonderful! Thanks for sharing 🙂 As I googled it I also saw a book of the same name that looks interesting too 🙂

Today I achieved a few things:
I made breakky and planned for two client sessions in the morning.

I did those client sessions and still have to write up the reports.

I cooked lunch. We had ham, eggs and tomato with a piece of toast.

I've started writing one report and also watching a movie on prime video called Mother of the Bride (its the 3rd movie and has two previous movies 1) Children of the Bride and 2) Baby of the Bride. They are drama/comedies I suppose.

Hope you have all had a great day 🙂

Re: Daily Achievements!

Hi @Judi9877 @LostAngel @pinklollipop15 @TAB @Anastasia ,

I haven't shared my achievements in a while because I was too busy achieving them!

As for the 'to achieve' list, it worked a treat @Anastasia @Judi9877 !

As soon as I posted, I jumped out of bed and worked to achieve my goals including buying that dreaded loaf of bread! 7am at the shops was great because I didn't have any crowds to fight!

As for today, I'm grateful I have been able to:

- get through the day

- inspire kids

- make a difference to people's lives

- end the day feeling tired.

I am so grateful for everyone here. I am overwhelmed with gratitude.
