A couple of weeks ago, I started an achievement journal. At the end of the day, I note down all the things I got done successfully, no matter how small or insignificant they are. I can tell this gesture is healing my feelings of chronic worthlessness. I am surprised at how much I am achieving each and everyday.

A good friend from a long time ago shared that she had begun practicing mindfulness, and would recount to herself every night all of the 'little victories' she had experienced throughout the day. This thread reminds me of that. She also said, Remember that a lot of 'little victories' add up to
One Big Victory, over time, and she was right. I have never forgotten it.
I will have to give my achievements some thought...this might take a while!
