@amiablePeace77. I need more information about aspects
@dhabib
Here is a rephrase, hope this is better understandable
What is something about yourself you think you need to improve upon or that you believe help you get by in life?
@amiablePeace77 my mediation clearing my mind distancing myself from my abusive father being alone watching comforting movies be with my dog constantly she’s my emotional support animal
@dhabib
I hope your situation will change soon so you can live a happier life. It must be very difficult for you right now.
Which aspects of yourself do you think you need to improve upon or that you believe to help get by in life?
I guess rebuilding my self worth after running into what feels like a series of hurdles or however you call it and stuff that feels like it's all out of my control and trying to not spiral because of it
@Lonewolf360
Sorry to hear about your challenges. Sometimes life can be really difficult, therefore it's crucial to take precautions to avoid the downward spiral. Hope things get easier soon.
So far outside of art using a journal to write about my feelings has helped a bit along with this class I've been been taking but I still have a long way to go
@Lonewolf360
You made your first steps already; it will take time but if you stay on your path, you will get better.
How do your start your day?
It helps some people to start their day with positive affirmations, something like "I will give my best today and that's enough" or "I am enough, I do not need to be perfect?" - just examples.
Well I haven't really used those before but I normally start my day with a semi predetermined plan of what I want to do though I'm working on time management because art takes a huge chunk of time from Start to finish especially if I'm working on the whole digital part which is its own can of worms
@Lonewolf360
Planning roughly what has to be done during a day gives a frame which is helpful. This is a self-help guide here at 7 cups about time management in case you haven't seen it https://www.7cups.com/path/playlist/first-things-first-by-stephen-covey-under-construction/
Thanks
I need to work on my discipline and self control. Self control to not let things trigger my response in a negative way.
@reservedBranch5070
👍Learning to deal with triggers makes life so much less stressful!
@amiablePeace77
Finding a way to socialize with people outside of my home. It's still a work in progress.
@4Jasmine
I hope you find something soon. The most important thing though is that you want to socialize! Are there any community groups you could join in your area?
@amiablePeace77
I am looking for the right group to get involved in. I will check out your suggestion. Thank you!
@4Jasmine volunteering can fulfill social needs and also help feel needed and useful to others.
In US there are webites like Volunteers of America and others that offer many options.
@amiablePeace77 I recently was told something by someone as an insult that made me question my personality. I want to try to fix it I guess but I’m the situation I also feel like I was manipulated in a way.
@Dbskxkcjen there is a title of a book that I love to quote although I have not read it:
"What Other People Think About Me Is None of My Business"
What I do is listen politely to what others say but do not take it to heart. If there is something I can learn from that, I take it. If that sounds just like their projection I try to have compassion that they live in a world that is so darkly colored by their opinions.
I will tell you something: You have a great potential and you are doing the best you can to develop it. Keep on keeping on.
@amiablePeace77
Aspects I need to improve upon:
I have to fix my attention span and focus. I also need to regain my extrovertness which I lost growing up.
@olivePapaya3606
Those are good goals! It helps some people to read at least 5 minutes per day to improve their focus. Sometimes things happen in your environment that make you withdraw and become more introverted. Do you feel that is something that happened to you?
@amiablePeace77
Yes I felt lonely and excluded in friends group, get told I am too loud and I slowly felt embarrassed after showing being myself.
Aspects I need to improve upon
- To learn to trust people (in general)
- time for self-care
- communication
what has helped me by
- hope (lots and lots of it)
- God’s Grace
@patientTree4231
I believe that working on those 3 things will make life easier and better, so I wish you all the best for it!
@amiablePeace77
Discipline
@Digvijaysingh247
Good goal to work on! Discipline can pull you through many challenges.
@amiablePeace77 I need to self improve is self care being alone more often near my local park and physical health strength being in the water more often
I got a lot to learn I read a lot in a library book editor it’s easier having slience peace in my bedroom dealing with my dramatic dad he yells gets angry easily Verbally confronting abusive
@dhabib
I think getting away by going into a more peaceful place like a park and learn more coping skills how to deal with the situation is a great idea until you can take your final decision how to live in future.
@amiablePeace77 that’s true that’s what I do I don’t like things that uspet me cause pain in my life make me uspet uncomfortable I don’t like being abused disrespected I do not like drama
@dhabib
You have rights and one of them is not to let others walk over you!
An area of my life which I think I need to improve upon is my physical and mental health. Being mentally fit results in physical fitness. This, I would like to work more on creating positive thoughts and also positive emotions. In other words, create a positive mindset.
@Admirablerainbow2825
Living with a positive mindset makes life so much easier and also so much more delightful! This is a great goal! 👍
