Daily goals, motivation and check in

Daily goals, motivation and check in

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. 😊

Re: Daily goals, motivation and check in

Hi all,

Am just climbing out of bed now after being an emotional wreck all day leaving me completely exhausted 😔
About to shower and try to pull myself together for my therapy appointment later. I guess I'm writing this now as a way of keeping accountable so I do shower and move off my bed :face_with_rolling_eyes:

Then an hours drive to pick up S4 from training

feel free to post anything that helps with motivation and goals @mandy84. I think it's great to have as many ideas as possible.

I hope you've all had an ok day with goals. If not there's always tomorrow which is pretty much what I'm hanging my hat on now. 💜🤗

Hugs, @Former-Member. I love this thread for the way it gets me doing things in the way you are describing with your shower. I don't do everything I write on the lists here but there's no doubt I do more than I would if I didn't participate. The shower will be really refreshing after your tough day. Hope your therapy appointment goes well.

Hi @Faith-and-Hope, it's great seeing you move step by step through what is needed to get through your days in the whirlwind. Glad you are able to find time for the forum, so we still get to see you too.

Re: Daily goals, motivation and check in

And I even shared a joke with him @Faith-and-Hope😉. Let my guard down a bit. And asked him for help. It's still stilted and uncomfortable but it's doable. Love your list of ticks and plans for today. 💜🤗
