summer can make everything better. The health section is killing my average! 12 months ago

I thou it would be better, but it gives me focus on how to improve!E 13 months ago

Way to go! 22 months ago

I think the 75% goal will take a long time, but today’s writing helped me today to motivate me to write my grandparents’ thank you note. They love card making and can not really do it anymore so I feel good doing it, but it takes a bit of time to feel like starting. I cashed the check that they sent me (I know, it’s crazy) because it worries them when things don’t get cashed right away. I am now up-to-date with my correspondence. One more %-tage point! 2 years ago

I get along well with my sibling(s).
My sister bosses me around and I feel guilty when I struggle to be assertive.

I get along well with my coworkers/ clients.
I internalize others’ pain, do not assert myself, feel I rely too much on others, do not feel I am good at what I do

I get along well with my manager/staff.
I feel I have disappointed and have not made a big enough effort to redeem myself

There is no one whom I would dread or feel uncomfortable “bumping into”. (In the street, at an airport or party).
I am embarrassed by my health and appearance to the people I thought I cut out without hating

I put people first and results second.
I just don’t. The people I work with are too time consuming to use do my job and babysit. I expect to coddled in return to feed my ego. If I find ways to meet my own goals I will be happier and more independent.

I have let go of the relationships which drag me down or damage me. ("Let go" means to end, walk away from, declare complete, no longer be attached to). STP

I have communicated or attempted to communicate with everyone whom I have hurt, injured or seriously upset, even if it wasn’t fully my fault.
I did try that and it was not successful this year, but atleast it was the catalyst to create change.

I do not gossip or talk about others.
This will be easier when I build my own confidence.

I have a circle of friends/family who love and appreciate me for who I am, more than just what I do for them.
I feel unloved when I don’t pull my weight around the house.

I tell people how they can satisfy me.
I don’t until it’s too late and I get mad.

I am fully caught up with letters and calls.
Need to get up to date with grandma and grandpa

I always tell the truth, no matter what.
I don’t always feel that way at my work.

I receive enough love from people around me to feel good.
I love my family, but wish for something more. The break down at work was because I expected too much from too little.

I have fully forgiven those people who have hurt/damaged me, intentional or not.
I feel rejected.

I am a person of his/her word; people can count on me.
I don’t always manage my time, stress, and emotions.

I quickly correct miscommunications and misunderstandings when they do occur.
I am trying in my new relationships and sometimes need to just shut up.

I live life on my terms, not by the rules or preferences of others.
This should be my new motto and my new co-workers need to be my inspiration!

I am complete with past loves or spouses.
NOPE because I still hope there is a future and there is not one.

I am aware of my wants and needs and get them taken care of.
All part of being assertive.

I do not judge or criticize others.
This will come with self-esteem.

I do not “take personally” the things that people say to me.
This is probably the hardest thing for me…

I have a best friend or soul-mate.
My bestie bails on me because she has allergies and feels sick, but I just don’t think we are very close. I think weight loss, patience, and more assertiveness may help this. I also need to understand the limits of friendship and not expect too much. My sister is a close friend but she always tries to be dominant.

I make requests rather than complain.
This comes back to me not taking things personally and knowing what I need.

I spend time with people who don’t try to change me.
I want to change me and until I am happy, how can my perceptions of others (real or imagined) be accurate? 2 years ago
