Progress...

Today I feel good! I've made progress! It's amazing how completing something makes me feel good, happy, excited and energetic. I do have to be careful because this can lead to me overdoing things and becoming exhausted!

Progress is a good thing, when it's linked to goals!
Completing goals is a huge boost to your wellbeing!

I keep thinking about a gentleman that I know. He has dreams. But he has no goals on making those dreams a reality, so sooner or later his depression is going to hit him again, because of regrets. Regrets have a nasty habit of ushering in depression. I am saddened by this mans current outlook on life. It could be so much better for him.

I have found that having reminders in my calendar helps me so much, because then I can click done and at the end of the day my calendar says that I've completed however many reminders! That is a good feeling!

Procrastination, I have found also seems to lead to regrets and depression! "Why do today what you can put off until tomorrow!" isn't exactly the way to do things!

Often times life is living on a knife edge. It's a delicate balance! I know that I could so easily slip into depression, which leads (for me) to procrastination, regrets, more depression and then suicide ideation.  Not a nice path. This is why I celebrate my small successes and my progress! Because I am recognising that I am moving towards my long held dream and slowly making it reality!

What about you? DO you have a long held dream that you'd like to make into a reality? If you need help doing this then I suggest you stop by here and make an appointment to see me!
