The fourteen day challenge

[The Albatross]

Looks like Deb you've started something that resonates with a lot of us. Thanks for that. So far so good, about half way through the day so it's too soon to tell though.

Count me in. This is day one for me. Discovered I was being too hard on myself for something that was beyond my control. Ok going to be positive.

Yay, going to bed now. A successful second day 1:).

Made it through the first day, and also off to bed. Goodnight everyone ;)

Day one didn't go so great for me. I knew I was mean to myself but I guess I didn't realize how mean I was to myself until I started to pay attention. Because of the amount of times I had to restart day one I started to make a list. I wrote down the negative thought that caused me to restart and next to it wrote down a positive thought related to it.

So while day one didn't go so great as far as getting to day two. It greatly made me realize just how much I hurt myself with these negative thoughts and how often I do it.

Got through yesterday, a whole day!! :) (Refusing to complete the negative thought that is dying to come up next, which is totally negative, I've heard it a million times in my life and I don't believe it today.)

So this is a great thread for me! Starting day two, moment by moment.

Good luck everyone. :tup:

I just want to encourage everyone to keep going. Remember, this is one of those challenges where the journey is far more important than the destination. I am hitting day one again, but that is OK as I keep learning so much about how I see myself and the world. Each day, the negatives become further between!!!:)

The longer we go and the more we learn, then we are really meeting the challenge!!!!

I've had success with day 1 but have failed day 2. Do I have to start day 1 again or do another day 2 tomorrow :confused:

 

[Loloma]

Day 2 going well. Reached lunch time in one piece. Keeping busy, packing suitcase for trip and have to drop of kitty this afternoon. Send a Easter parcel to my son etc. etc. will be a long day. Wish everyone a stress free, calm day. Well we can only hope.:tup:

 

[The Albatross]

Ugh, another day when I didn't even make it much further than pouring coffee and sitting down here at the computer. It seems I like to negative message myself when i start to think about or plan my day.

Day 1 again.

Day 2 so far so good. I'm not being hard on myself, nor am I beating up on myself. Being positive is a very good thing. Hope the rest of this day goes good.

I would say I had a 'day one', but I either disocciated through most of it, or there was so much self-negative there was no reprieve.
So I'm going to start with '1' tomorrow.

Thanks Deb, -though at times I could kill you for these 'bright ideas'!! :mad: , lol-
(Just kidding of course ((((Hugs,xox)))) :) )
