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

Oh my @Bunniekins that didnt' even occur to me! I shall check it with someone. Gosh.

It's part of the image itself, so I guess the 'whatever it is that checks things doesn't check avatars or doesn't 'see' the words when they're part of an image. Dunno.

I love him. really love him. He's Drake, a character by artist Maxime Chiasson, for a storyboard titled Drake and the Colossi. It was turned into a meme with those words. He is created with such precision, such grace, such determination in the way he holds his weapon, in his face, the way his body his held - everything is so so beautiful - to me.

I'm not the happy cheerful white fox lately, so had to change the image for now.

I draw on the sense of purpose and determination I see in this image to get through each day.

edited to add: I guess the story behind me using it is this.

It's the sentiment that gets me. We know what the red dot is (the laser pointer that we tease cats with) but the kitten warrior doesn't. His sheer courage and determination to put an end to the elusive 'red dot' is so inspiring.

@Former-Member I think it is just funny that they missed it .... the powers that be .... I am saying nothing lol. I haven't read your story yet as they are often a trigger for me ... I started to and I could just feel it starting.... I will try again later. I have to get my son organised for his shower.

Yea @Bunniekins as much as it helps. It's a hindrance. Terrible really.

@Former-Member some days are like that. It's like skating on thin ice. And knowing it's just a matter of time before you fall into the water.

Re: Daily goals, motivation and check in

@eudemonism gosh, yes, that is so true, unfortunately. And, usually, when you do fall that water is so so cold it's a shock to the system.!

@Bunniekins I understand not reading stories, I appreciate the acknowledgment too, I don't always read all the stories for the same reasons.

I am trusting you are both, and others who pass by, are having a better day today.

Howzitgoing @Teej ?

I got half a bed made, dinner cooked, and a shower in.

Have thrown some washing into a hand basin with washing powder. Will slosh it every time I walk past, then pull the plug and run rinse water ..... and repeat. Will sling them over the shower head to dry overnight.

That’s it for today. D2 doing the dishes ...., well, pulling them out of the suds and rinsing them. I run sink water when I star any cooking and drop everything I have used into it as I go.

Works for me ......

Re: Daily goals, motivation and check in

I've finally gotten on top of the dishes! I've only been struggling with that task since before xmas.

I've also just finished a few loads of washing . . . for the second day in a row!!{1st time since xmas}

I've swept a bit of floor, I even kind of bathed.

Hi @Teej

@Former-Member

@Faith-and-Hope Glad you got out for a walk

One of my goals today was to look through and clean up my forum profile. tick

Mostly a jammie day tho. Rotten weather this part of the globe.

My son went out in it and brought home supplies, folded washing and is cooking dinner. Cheerfully.

Raising a decent son. Tick
