    Hope you all had a great day. I did indulge but feel no guilt.
    24 days to the solstice.
    Today I will be under calories, I will do a 90 minute workout, I will drink my water and I will smile.

    388 - some days you have to create your own sunshine. This could be easier said than done, but I've had some pretty good sunshine recently.

    ^ Beautiful, so glad you took the time to do that. A wonderful gift for the child and for yourself also.
    20 days to the solstice.
    Today I will try to practice gratitude when my mind wants to turn to dark thoughts.

    This is a really interesting process, 392 days! I look forward to checking on this from time to time. I find negatives and followed by positives, and vice versa, we just have to be patient. I lIke the mountain quote above, there are so many downtrodden people in the world, we have to try to be strong and helpful for them, transcend our own feelings of inadequacy or self-pity, and by doing something for others we develop ourselves. Having said that, sometimes you have to set boundaries and ensure you dont go crazy! Like for me, taking time for exercise and eating right has been fundamental.

    My positive today

    I found something that has changed my life for the better!
    I feel:
    When:
    Because:
    I would like:

    So I said to my son yesterday:
    I feel frustrated and mad
    When you do not do your chores
    Because it makes me think you do not respect me or the house you live in.
    I would like it if you would go now and clean the bathroom.

    Bathroom was clean by the time I went to bed!

    18 days to the solstice.

    @cblue315, earlier this year I was at a training seminar for work and that is something we also did. It's interesting how well it can work and something that I certainly should practice more in my own life.

    Most days I do a two minute meditation I found on YouTube called a "mindful check-in". I have been letting it slide a bit lately. Today I will make the effort and take the time to do this. It always makes a difference. I feel calmer and have more focus.
