Re: Motivation for today / join me

Hi @Cazchri that's a great idea. Having accountability to another person is a big motivator for me too. I also find it helpful to write my goals down as a list, as you have done. I often think, even if I don't end up achieving everything on my list, I still probably got more done than if I hadn't bothered to write it out or tell someone else in the first place.

Sometimes starting is the hardest part. But it looks like you're already doing better than yesterday, you're at least up and posting on the Forums, good for you. Have you been able to get out of bed yet? Good on you Cazchri - you got this! Cheering you on from here!! 🙂

Hi @Cazchri. I started day by over sleeping. And missed an appointment. Have rescheduled for Monday. I dropped sons bag off to him - going to Melbourne to see the soccer live.
I still have to pack him soccer gear for tomorrow.
Need to put clean sheets on bed.
Have put a load of washing on.
But really just feel like lying in bed where it's warm

Hi Cazchri-writing on the forum was a good goal for you. It took courage and motivation...2 very important ingredients to make your recipe( goals to be achieved) for the day. Well done.

This plan and your achievements will inspire others- so you will be helping others... how nice is that for you?

Please let me know when you are at a stage where you can get out of the house because this really changes the energy.

Your plan is working-" so when you're onto a good thing stick to it".🙂

Ok am doing this again today, come join me, even if you only manage to get out of bed! You have achieved and I ended up unpacking and packing dishwasher at about 10 last night. My car is going now so my husband has taken me out for weekend. Anyway off track now! I have a large goal today of finishing a emAil that I commenced yesterday, doing :2 loads of washing and hanging it out. Will leave it there for the moment. Thankyou everyone for support and comments and would really love people that are struggling to get on board with me!
