I’m currently feeling:
Unsuccessful.
My thoughts creating this feeling :
Once again the day didn’t quite go to plan. I did manage to get one major, urgent task completed before we went out. We ended up speeding time fixing the bells before a visiting band rang at the cathedral. Then the ringers were 40 minutes late starting because 2 of them hadn’t left enough travel time. We had a coffee in the cathedral before doing some shopping and were half way home again when one of the visiting ringers phoned to say they had stopped ringing early. We turned around and went back the the Cathedral again to see them out and lock up. By the time we got home again C jumped straight on the computer so I couldn’t get to my next tasks. I ended up doing some research on mediterranean diets and got very inspired by meal prep. I ended up having a half hour nap and downloaded a new ebook to add to my reading challenge. By this time I was past being motivated to do much else except play games on my tablet.
My desired feeling:
Ok.
Thoughts to practice to create my desired feeling:
I mean being Ok with whatever I get done or not get done today. I have 2 lots of ringing, ironing, food prep and a meeting today. I’m not going to beat myself up if other things don’t get done.
I’ll show up on purpose in my dress, body language and presentation by:
Jeans and jumper today. Somewhere between keeping warm when we go out versus not getting too hot whilst ringing. Basic jewellry again today so it doesn’t get in the way. I will be fullly on whatever I do today, but relaxed about not getting stuff done if it doesn’t happen.
I will show up for myself by:
Giving myself grace not to get bothered or feel overwhelmed at what I haven’t done. Noone will get hurt, there’s another day tomorrow.
I will show up for my extraordinary goal by:
Attending a meeting this evening about future plans and being interested, antimated and unsolved in decision making and plans.
I will upgrade my surroundings by:
Starting to wrap some christmas gifts and getting things boxed up ready for the relevant groups of people. Watch a christmassy movie to get me in the spirit of things.
Today I am:
Letting go of the need to get everything done all at once.
Today I am grateful for:
The chance to give gifts to friends and loved ones to show them what they mean to me and that I care and think about them.
