What Am I Doing Right?

User Profile: soulsings
soulsings February 10th
I have often tried to figure out what I did wrong in life. One day it dawned on me, that the real question is
  • What did I do Right?
  • What is something you like to do that helps you feel okay with your life and yourself?

@Amanda84 prayer is something that brings me peace especially when it is a prayer of listening not asking for something for myself.

@soulsings At first I went to church ‘cause I had no other choice-my mom made me go. But then I chose to go. I also feel as a person I never got involved in drugs, smoking, alcohol or criminal activity somethin’ I am very proud of myself for. I do my best to always be helpful, generous and kind. What helps me is writing, praying and being who I am without feeling like I need people please.

@eternalHero77 that is a worthy goal in life, ethical living.

@soulsings I am not sure how to answer that... Fortunately, I don't need to do anything to feel OK with my life and myself, because I feel great, every day I am thankful for having people who loves me and people I love near me.. Many years ago I decided I should focus mostly on the positive and important things in my life.. I do sing on Twitch twice a week because it makes me happy.. Does that count? 😊

@WiseCaribbean singing definitely  counts. Look closer and you may find more things you do right. Ask yourself the question and see what pops into your mind.

@soulsings

When I had both of my pulmonary embolisms I was a little shocked at how little reassurance and help I got through my doctors surgery, by the GP's own admission it isn't their area of expertise and chest pains are only to be expected afterwards. I gravitated online to thrombosis support sites and forums, particularly Thrombosis UK and NBCA, National Blood Clot Alliance, American site. Both sites are ran by health care professionals. For me talking to there people with the same experience and particularly ones who had recovered well was key to my own recovery, far more than my GP. On one occasion my GP even said 'we can't just open you up and look inside !!'

For the first couple of years I helped moderate on the forums and regularly shared my own recovery journey and even 11 years later I continue to do so via the bookface groups, if it just helps one person then I always thought it was worth the effort and it has lead to a few lasting friendships.

I'm hoping my 7-Cups experience will be similar in time.

@soulsings

These are good questions to ask yourself; thank you!

When I am creative, build something, work in my garden, or come here, I always feel good in life.

@soulsings Thank you so much for this. I could feel my brain change, focusing on what I've done right.

  • What did I do Right?

I was committed to being a good example, rather than trying to convince someone to do the right thing. I continued to treat people well instead of getting revenge or being angry.

  • What is something you like to do that helps you feel okay with your life and yourself?

I have to stay routinely grounded in God's word. There always seems to be a message that corresponds to what I'm feeling that day. I need to be reminded of how much God loves me. It helps when I feel so out of place anywhere else.

  • What did I do Right?
  • What is something you like to do that helps you feel okay with your life and yourself?

I know that I need to stop and think about things a lot.  I also know that I need lots of sleep.

@purpleTree4652 getting enough sleep and food is important for sure.
