Today I am grateful for....... Today I want to work on.......

[Grumpy Cat]

I'm tired of feeling sorry for myself! The more I feel sorry for myself and focus on the "depressing" things, the more I start to look like Grumpy Cat. So today, I'm starting a new thread that will provide an opportunity to focus on the "positive" things in life and provide a place to post "goals" or "things to work on". I believe that focusing on "good thoughts" changes the brain chemistry and helps one be more positive. I also believe that stating a "goal" that one wishes to accomplish to other people helps to bring the "dream" into reality and not just remain a random thought.
So this thread is to post one thing that you are grateful for today and something you would like to work on that will make you into a better person. I'll start.

TODAY I AM GRATEFUL FOR.....My Mama (my best friend).

TODAY I WANT TO WORK ON.....Not losing my temper at Waldo (happens especially when I'm tired, when I'm in a hurry or when I really need to get something done [studying, housework}.)

 

[Grumpy Cat]

I'm already adding something to work on! I'm going to study statistics more and take it more seriously! I got a C on my test! I want to cry!

 

[Grumpy Cat]

TODAY IM GRATEFUL FOR: Sleep, finally.

TODAY I WANT TO WORK ON: Keeping a daily exercise routine again.

Am I the only one doing this? Where is everyone? I'm getting lonely in here all by myself.

It all seams to be a matter of timing Angela, it seams to be busy at different times

Today I am grateful that I managed to *kind of* work to my own initiative (I just needed a push)..
I am also grateful that one of my best friends listened to how I felt on something and didn't judge.

I need to work on not having to ask if things I am doing are okay. I should be able to judge myself and have confidence in my abilities.

I NEED TO WORK ON: My diet and exercise program (still).

Following the standard protocol:
TODAY I AM GRATEFUL FOR: The social support I have in my life/ those new friends I just made. (fingers crossed)

TODAY I WANT TO WORK ON: Getting back into reading. I've got a book a guy is counting on me to finish that I keep procrastinating reading. I know I'll love it once I get started though.
