What are you proud of today or recently?

I have kicked it up a notch at work and seek out things that need to be done, get it done fast and efficiently, and do my best to answer all questoins customers have for me about products.

I ordered myself a pizza as a treat for my hard work.

I am incorporating more self-care into my daily routine.

I am choosing to roll cigarettes over buying a pack, and I am getting faster at rolling with fewer mistakes

I am keeping up with the dishes and maintenance of the house.

I make my bed everyday.

I am showering more often.

I am keeping my hair healthy.

I am drinking more water and tea.

I am working on losing weight.

I wrote a letter to my former babysitter/soul sister and want to keep writing more.

I am reading a book.

I paint my nails regularly.

I pick out nice outfits to wear.

I pay my bills on time.

I cover my bills before I pay myself.

I significantly reduced my alcohol intake.

I cut back on smoking.

I am overcoming my social anxiety.

I am losing my fear of dogs while working at the pet store.

I am honest.

I am prepared for power outages and stocked up on canned goods.

I replaced all the batteries in my LED lanterns.

I am a proud plant mama.

I am so proud of going back to school and so excited!

I am doing my best

For reasons unknown, I seem to be enduring an awful lot of generalized pain these days. But I am proud of myself, because:

- I have been able in the last few years to do more planning-ahead, whether it's for personal goals or for shopping, cooking, and house cleaning

-I've been able to meet my goals most days, in spite of dealing with an awful lot of back, hip, knee, foot, and shoulder pains

-I am able to pull hot dinners together from scratch when they are needed, and they're on-time and healthy meals

-Because of husband's wacky work schedule, I'm often tasked with projects which I need to see through, from start-to-finish, on my own. And I do it.

- I refuse to become bitter about the many unfair things done to me and said about me by some very harmful individuals.

- I am normally optimistic, and try very hard to keep the positive side of things always in view.

Good idea for a thread!

I am proud of myself for...

posting in this thread even though I feel like I have nothing to be proud of sometimes.

Also for staying disciplined with a long writing project I have and not giving up on that.

Today, I'm attending a virtual conference to network with others in my field.

Also, an alum from my college just asked to meet with me for a career coaching session, and I'm excited about helping her.

I'm proud of myself for going to the gym and then a yoga class this morning. I also went to a poetry reading last night and then did some of my classwork, when I could have blown it off. I'm proud of that.

I am proud because I am eating more fruits and veggies. It is becoming clear I do not need to eat like a slop and it is getting clear I do not need to be this weight. I feel myself growing warmer instead of colder. And I think I am becoming aware in this frame of time I need to change my ways in dire measure. This is right for I am just so unhappy with myself. I am proud I am able to contest against the inner demons. I have the will and stamina. I am proud finally because my constant suicidal thought (including intrusive thoughts) sort of left. I wonder what down to science caused the shift in mind. I am proud of myself for pushing those overwhelming aside and I have this break from my mundane and ordinary existence, the one that eats me alive every day. I am wildly looking to my freedom. I am proud because I made some jokes in my freedom about some things. They were obviously bad jokes but they brought me to this point. The next steps mean so much and for that I am proud I can carry on to live my very own mundane and ordinary life. I am proud of the woman my mother carried meaning me and I am proud I could ever live as me because my mother is still alive and I must love those searing blue eyes because she is the reason I live. I am proud I told that suicide monster to leave because my Mom is alive and my Mom is worth living and fighting for. Only my Mom could allow this miracle to hit me and strike the landslide of the demons into the abyss instead of me. And so I am glad and proud of myself that I have a great relationship with my Mom.

I am proud of the transformation my husband and I are giving to our home. We bought from the builder, so there were were many things that needed to be done. The yard, in particular. We've spent a lot of the last weekends, planting trees and bushes, putting flowers and herbs in planters, laying down mulch. It's a lot of work, but I am happy with the results so far.

Today I attempted to get a task done, but missing paperwork that need to get first.
Washed dishes.
Took a nap.
Washed a load of laundry.
Relaxed some on my day off despite worrying about missing paperwork earlier.
Thanks for this!
