That's not easy for me. I want all the things now. There's so much that needs attention. So I made a list of the things I'm trying to work on all at once. Hopefully I won't bog myself down in the details.
1. Stop the monologue. [I've been having moderate success with calming my mind and avoiding the incessant chatter that used to go on in my head. It hasn't been easy.]
2. Spend time on things that bring me joy or peace. [I'm putting a lot of time into taking pictures and working with them to create images I like. My goal is to spend time doing things that don't make me feel like I'm wasting time.]
3. Find an invigorating activity. [This has been a constant challenge that, to be honest, brings me more stress than enjoyment. Every attempt I've ever made at consistent exercise has turned to crap including the bike riding which actually got harder and more exhausting each time I did it. I would love to learn yoga - and I'd love to take a class, but I have NEVER once been happy taking a phys-ed class. Every one I've ever taken has been a disappointment or a disaster and I don't know if I have the discipline to learn yoga properly on my own.]
4. Declutter. [This is another hard one because all the stuff that's around is not all mine. I could easily declutter my own life, but it would still be entwined with the clutter of others and I don't know what to do about that.]
