Y'know, as much as I can get into my own funk about things, I like to try to focus on positive stuff. As this is my most common piece of advice to others as it works well for me, I figured I may as well open it up. So I decided that I would start a thread as a challenge to everyone:

List 10 things that you have accomplished in your life that you are proud of yourself for. Then list off 10 little goals to work towards that you can be proud of later!

I get that this might take a while to complete, so take your time. Really think about it and find some things that you're proud of!
------------------------------------------------------------------

And because I lead by example, here's mine!

10 Things I'm Proud Of:
1. I moved to England without having anything planned in advance, on my own.
2. When I ate at a restaurant solo the first time (sushi in Toronto!)
3. When I first went to the movie theatre solo (Alice in Wonderland in Cardiff)
4. The fact that I can and will wear skirts and dresses without being uncomfortable.
5. Running the Talent Show at the school I teach at.
6. That I actually managed to get myself to go to the GP for meds, the pdoc for diagnosis, and to therapy.
7. Moving to the middle of no where because for work.
8. Taking the cat with me when I moved out of my aunt's house
9. Cutting off contact from my younger brother.
10. For having days regularly where I'm happyish with how I look!

10 Goals For Myself To Make Me Happy:
1. Go to a climbing wall.
2. Go to a spa.
3. Get running again!
4. Finish painting my flat
5. Attempt to find a soup that I might actually enjoy
6. Get up the guts to go to the gym.
7. Go on an actual date someday.
8. Have a HAPPY birthday, not a mediocre or horrible one.
9. Save up money to get a house.
10. Learn to like living here.

As you can see, a lot of my goals are going to take me AGES to complete! Others might not.
