How proud are you of yourself?

in #life6 years ago

Hello,

this post is written with a purpose - I want you to think a little...

A person very close to me got some interesting homework the other day. She had to write down 20 things that she is really proud of about herself, stuff that she accomplished in her life that she can really feel awesome about.

Like many, I also sometimes have problems with my self-esteem, especially when problems never seem to stop and everything seems to go wrong. I also had a few disasters in the childhood years that have stuck with me since and occasionally some bad stuff rises to the surface. But still, I try to think positively as much as possible, so I also tried to think of things I can put on the mentioned list. If I start with things like learning to talk, to walk, to write, or tie my shoes... it's pretty much no problem. :) Otherwise, I had to think really hard about it. But the little things are important just as well :) They are the backbone of everything.

It's important to look on the bright side, always find positive things, even if they are small. It's easy to get overwhelmed with bad stuff. Especially in the hectic world we live in today.

So I ask you this - "Can you fill such a list easily, or you have to think harder about it?"

Have a nice rest of the day.

I can say it for myself, that there are days when I can fill the list in a moment, but there are also days when I can't write a thing on. Good post!

Thank you. We all have our good and bad moments. Life is like a rollercoaster. But after a few drops, there's bound to be a hill soon.

That's the spirit. As you already know - after the rain it's always sunny again. Sometimes it's soon, but sometimes it just needs some time to be back. You just hold on and don't forget to have some fun.

To write down 20 things that I am really proud of about myself, stuff that I am accomplished in my life ... thx for making me realise that I need to stop for a moment and think about my accomplishments in life 😃 Very good post 👍🏻

Thank you :) I'm very happy to help :) Sometimes an overview like this comes in handy, to see that things really aren't that bad, as we sometimes think when we only see the negative stuff around us. Think positive :)
