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. 😊

Note* Ive just started this thread again so it will be visible. Once I deleted my account it no longer shows up.

please join in again if and when needed.

Hi All,

Have woken up this morning feeling overwhelmed and depressed, so have decided that is not how I need to feel today at all!

I'm not doing paid work today so will do the washing, pull some weeds and clean the house.

I'm going to try and make some time to do something pleasant for myself as well.

Wishing you all a pleasant day.

There are some lovely messages here!

A few well put together words and a beuatiful image of amazing nature can do wonders to lift our spirits.

I didn't feel like going to work today so I went for a walk, did some gardening, listened to the birds and generally had a relaxing monring, so I then felt better about work.

My goal today was to try starting my day differently, I enjoyed work after having had a nice morning.

@Antelope well done!

I woke to great weather here and did think get out of the house but did not aside an essential medication pickup from hospital I needed a support worker to help with due downturn last night.

But I guess looking at the blue sky out the window was nice and I tended my indoor plants. The plants are new and inspired by this forum. They provide a little life in this lonely place growing from just seeds. My Dill is not doing well after a great start and I feel sorry for it .

Goals tomorrow:

wake up earlier and get moving

soil a pot and transplant some celery and spinach, keep experimenting with what I know little ablout.

get rubish and recycling out.

clean up.

take all medication not just some

go and get scripts fillled

eat

do some work (unpaid)

Wish goal:

make a friend

get to sleep earlier

ring someone

@SadUnicorn I agree, plants really help. I got three during COVID, it really livens my house up especially as I live by myself.

I'm sick today (had a COVID test yesterday and came back negative -- just a cold, as I thought) so I'm a bit low energy. I tried doing some laundry but even that exhausted me. So I found some jobs to apply for and then played video games the rest of the day. Historically I'm really bad at finishing video games so making progress on them during a low-energy day felt great.

Hard to say what I'll do tomorrow at this stage...see how I'm feeling in the morning and assess from there.

Re: Daily goals, motivation and check in

@Loiter sometimes I wish I could get into video games. I tried, but not for me as bore easily. Maybe you can recommend a really good video game?

Goodluck on the job search. Work purpose can mean a lot even unpaid.
