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.

Re: Daily goals, motivation and check in

@SadUnicorn thank you, just finished my degree so I'm keen to get a job in my field!

As for video games, that's a hard question! I'm trying to think of my favourites that are easy for a non-gamer to get into. If you have an iPhone or iPad, I recommend Ghost Trick, it's a puzzle game based around Rube Goldberg-like contraptions and it has a really engaging detective story with great characters. I'm not much of a PC gamer, I prefer consoles, so it's hard to recommend something for computers, but I really enjoyed Beneath a Steel Sky, it's an old point-and-click adventure game set in a gritty sci-fi future Australia (!) and it's free to download on gog.com!

@Loiter I do like SciFi. I am an Android man myself but will check Play Store to see if there to.

What is your field? It is good to engage work keen and passionate about. Free sounds good 🙂

Re: Daily goals, motivation and check in

@SadUnicorn I double-checked before posting, it's only on iOS sadly 😞 It was originally a Nintendo DS game that received an iOS port. Apparently you can get Nintendo DS emulators on Android, but I have no idea how you'd set that up...

It's counselling, actually! 😅 Feel like the blind leading the blind sometimes, although in my classes we did talk about the special role of the "wounded healer"...

Hello @Teej @Maggie @Antelope @Loiter @Adge @Eve7 @WIP

I'm having a cup of tea and planning my day. Off to a slow start but that's ok.

First on the list:

yoga
shower
shopping list
write 2 emails

Then:

walk to library to pick up a book, and vinnies to drop a few things
top up brake fluid, which is a first
ironing

@SadUnicornI love the idea of 'wish goals' that I saw in your earlier post. So here goes:

Listen to a podcast
Write a letter
Early night

Hi @frog @Teej @Maggie @Antelope @Loiter @Adge @Eve7 @WIP

@frog I tried yoga last Thursday in a spontaneous decision to wait for the class after exercise physio. The class was called Trauma Sensitive Yoga and I think it actually helped. S it is on next Thursday's to do list.

The early night thing is proving challenging, particularly with daylight saving change.

Today I had planed to get up early and do some work but still trying to get motivated for it.

Goal

Still try to do some work.

Hang out washing,

Eat a proper dinner.

Do some exercises and move enough.

Early night.

Wish Goal.

Find a good series on Netflix or Amazon

Have contact with at least one of the kids

Start writing a submission for Senate enquiry

Find something to be happy about

Re: Daily goals, motivation and check in

Thanks for the tag @Shaz51 I’ve had a long day in hospital but I’m not as sedated as I was so my goal is to read David Copperfield in the next few days.

Love to all
