Daily Achievements!

Hi forum friends! I've decided to start a new thread on Daily Achievements because I suffer from depression as one of my mental illness and that means it's often hard for me to remind myself that I do actually things in my day, no matter how small they may be. I thought forumites could post here a daily achievement or 2 so we can remind ourselves that we have done something good each day. It can be as big or as small as you like. Just as long as what you did makes you proud and happy.

I'm tagging @roses @Bow @Shaz51 @BPDSurvivor @saltandpepper @Daisydreamer @Former-Member @Former-Member @Former-Member @TideisTurning @Former-Member @frog @Sans911 @outlander

in case you might be interested as well as anyone else who wants to join in!

So, to get this discussion started, I'll post my achievements today which are:

- I had a gorgeous cup of tea which helped me deal with some anxiety I was experiencing;

- I paid my car registration which was due today.


See what I mean about achievements? Mine may seem small or irrelevant to some people but to me, because I have depression, these are actually major in the scheme of my life. I look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with.

Re: Daily Achievements!

Gah! How could I be so stupid! Inspection week was this week just gone not this week coming! Flip!

There's no damage... I don't damage... I'm putting a reminder to the calendar event for next month... Hopefully they don't say anything...

Re: Daily Achievements!

Ok the calendar app only let me put 5 reminders in... So each day at 4pm 5 days prior to inspection week... Ok, this won't happen again now... now if they say anything I have already taken action to prevent it...

Re: Daily Achievements!

Yes I've started, but I've also given myself a distraction for today.

  • Take rubbish out
  • Finish emptying baskets
  • Do dishes
  • Put clothes away
  • Take bottle basket back outside
  • Clear desk

Not in that order
