I'm starting this discussion as a place where we can set our goals daily, help motivate each other to do them and then check in with how we went. It's a place to celebrate when we achieve them or just sit with each other if we didnt and are feeling down about it. Hopefully with encouragement and support from each other we'll tick lots of boxes for our daily goals and feel good about it. Please join in. 😊

I'm hoping coming back on this thread will help too. Mine is open ended because I have found I get too depressed when I don't do what I say I'm going to. So today I'm going to do 'running raids' on small jobs. My depression has come to a really hard place where I can only make 15 min out of bed at a time and I'm exhausted and full of self loathing. Today my goal is to do more of the 15 min at a time and try not to get caught up so much with self loathing.

Hi @CheerBear, @Former-Member, and everyone,
Today I am still in my nightie at 12.30pm. So far all I've done is:
Next:
I'm not game to put much more on my list at the moment cos really I'm not sure I'll even get out of my nightie at this stage!

@CheerBear, good on you for 'keeping on, keeping on' despite the supermarket setback. I'm now showered and dressed, have taken second meds, made the bed and am contemplating the walk on the beach in about 20 minutes (close as possible to low tide is the best time to walk with my dodgy feet). Also adding an extra item, recently arranged over the phone, to my list for today:

@CheerBear For getting all the things you wanted to done and for the time warp. I can see some highlights coming up tonight.
My day has been a bit better than previous days. I did eventually make a deal with myself to achieve a couple more things and even write them on a list 😱 I should be able to tick them all. It was just a couple of small things like climb the hill across the road ( not much bigger than an ant hill really but I haven't done it for ages), put clothes away and put some summer clothes away until needed again, plant out my parsley. This has been the most productive day for ages. Thanks for starting it off again this morning 💜😘
