✨ How did your day go? Umm not to good tbh

✨ What were the areas you felt you made progress in? Remember that the flourishing concept closely relates to 6 main ones (but you can share general progress too!): 1) Happiness and Life Satisfaction 2) Mental and Physical Health 3) Meaning and Purpose 4) Character and Virtue 5) Close Social Relationships and 6) Financial and Material Stability. I didnt harm again 2 day streak now.

✨ What did you find challenging today? This panic attack is hard i'm trying to stop me from getting to bad but I have hit the peak

✨ How did your day go?

- My patience and commitment were tested, and I came out even stronger after the disruption/test.

✨ What were the areas you felt you made progress in? Remember that the flourishing concept closely relates to 6 main ones (but you can share general progress too!)

1) Happiness and Life Satisfaction

- I'm committed to practicing daily gratitude and mindfulness. Even when I have my low days I look for things to be grateful for. It really has produced more things for me to be grateful for

2) Mental and Physical Health

- I'm becoming more fearless in facing what changes need to be made and what burdens need to be released

3) Meaning and Purpose

- Fighting through my social anxiety and at times laziness has really improved all through my involvement in 7 Cups 💜

4) Character and Virtue

- I'm always open for room to grow and flourish, and I always remain non judgemental and receptive to others. I consistently work on understanding and respecting other's point of view while remaining clear and solid in my own

5) Close Social Relationships

- Needs work, I'm a but of a study and workaholic 😔

and 6) Financial and Material Stability

- All is well!

✨ What did you find challenging today?

- Dealing with patience and flexibility. There's a quote I heard from my mother long ago that sticks with me to this day: "Remain committed to your goals, yet flexible in your approach". Really calmed me down and made me realize life is not a race or a competition. It's about my well-being in me, because that effects what I put out into the world and people I come in contact with.

Thank you again for this amazing project @SoulfullyAButterfly 💜

✨ How did your day go?

I wished it went better, but the realizations I've been avoiding are starting to be clearer. I can at least be grateful for that.

✨ What were the areas you felt you made progress in? Remember that the flourishing concept closely relates to 6 main ones (but you can share general progress too!):

1) Happiness and Life Satisfaction: No Progress
2) Mental and Physical Health:
Progress in Mental Health - I've finally accepted I need to let go of a certain something because it's not healthy for me overall. I've been hesitant to let go because what can I say, the heart wants what it wants and there goes any rhyme or reason the brain might have to save you from yourself.
3) Meaning and Purpose: Possible Progress? After seeing my mom's friends (they were husband and wife), I realized I love giving back to the community. Our conversation made me feel like my old self and that's been pretty foreign lately. With that said, another decision I needed to make started to become clearer.
4) Character and Virtue: No Progress (I think)
5) Close Social Relationships: I made BIG PROGRESS, but I won't be sharing, yet.
6) Financial and Material Stability: Not Progress

✨ What did you find challenging today?
While I made progress in my mental health, I still needed to remind myself to not do certain things based on my "programming" from this past year. I'm hoping I continue to make progress and make a positive outcome.

2) Mental and Physical Health:
Mental Health - Little Progress
3) Meaning and Purpose: Today I had a conversation with my mom's friends and just talking with them made me more aware of something I love doing. Talking to them made me feel like my old self and that has been foreign to me for awhile.
4) Character and Virtue: No Progress (I think)
5) Close Social Relationships: I've actually made big progress in this area, but I'm not ready to share.
6) Financial and Material Stability: Unfortunately, NO P R O G R E S S 😔 I really do money grew on trees. I'd have an orchard and be financially stable.

✨ What did you find challenging today?
While I was able to make progress in Mental Health and Close Social Relationships, I also needed to remind myself to not do certain things because of my "programming" this past year. It's not easy because of other emotions coupled with it but I managed to work through it.

✨ How did your day go?

I will write about yesterday Tuesday. It was a very busy day for me but overall things went well. I ended up tired but pleased.

2) Mental and Physical Health I was active all day, my dog loved it lol! Thankfully the sun was shining which added to my delight and made everyone smile ( people smile more in the sun?)

✨ What did you find challenging today?

Challenging was making sure I wasn't distracted as I had so many things to do, and so many things I wanted to do, but I carried on and got through it all.

How did your day go?

Well my day went fine. TBH nothing interesting happened, well if you don't count me waking up at 7:04 am and rushing to get ready for school and cycling as fast as I can (while maintaining safety ofc) (it takes more then 10 minutes to reach school oops) and reaching school at 7:30 am 💀 (have to reach school before 7:30 am or no entry or it is pretty difficult to convince the watchmen to let us enter, thankfully I have not faced such a situation YET lol)

What were the areas you felt you made progress in?

hmmm I don't really know if I made progress in anything except physical health by cycling to and fro from school which I do everyday which is nothing new so 🤷‍♀️

What did you find challenging today?

I found combing my hair challenging today 😂 because I washed my hair before sleeping. I didn't dry it or comb it or anything, I just washed it, came out of bed and went straight to bed so when I woke up today it was so tangled and difficult to comb 💀 I washed it at around 11:50 pm and when I came out of bathroom and checked the time it was 12:35 am which is honestly a new record because it takes so much time washing my hair and I honestly thought it must be around 1 am lol

I feel like I just wrote a load of rubbish above completely opposite to what we were supposed to write 😅 well sorry for that 🙃 anywho

Peace out ✌

1. I had a fab day. It was beautiful outside today. My violets are blooming.

2. Close social relationships - I had lunch with my aunt. My friends are coming over tonight.

3. Nothing. It's been a great day!

✨ How did your day go? Grateful. I took a day leave to take my dad to see a doctor and he said there's no serious and immediate treatment needed. I'd say that's a relief.
✨ What were the areas you felt you made progress in?
Difficult to answer if you have tendency to beat yourself the hardest xD let's just say, I'm grateful for everything today, but I continue working to fit myself for a better tomorrow in all 6 areas.
✨ What did you find challenging today? Worrying about my parents' health.

Thank you @SoulfullyAButterfly 🤗

Checking in for week one/technically day one

✨ How did your day go?
I'm making the most of it, I am flourishing because I quit nicotine, and it's been a rocky first few days...today is technically the first day with absolutely no nicotine whatsoever, and I feel bad enough that I called in sick. Trying to not feel bad about myself or weak for feeling the need to do so. I feel like I've got a mild cold, and am very drained from the urge surfing and the positivity I've been engaging in the last couple of days to accomplish this. So I kind of hit a wall and feel drained but I know I deserve to take care of myself and get through this day without having a panic attack or feeling terrible like I would at work.

I made progress in physical health, meaning and purpose. I am trying not to feel like I am lacking character and virtue for calling in sick to work. I've been fighting hard all week and doing great at work, top metrics on my team, but it's like I hit a wall so I'm trying to take care of my mental health today and avoid missing more work or doing poorly at work. I hope that's some kind of virtue despite calling in sick.

✨ What did you find challenging today?

Today it's hard to feel good about my accomplishments. It's proving hard to not feel bad about missing work, and hard to not worry about the financial impact even though I know it will be alright. I know I am honoring what my body and intuition are telling me by calling in sick. I don't want to feel like I'm letting people down, but I am making sure I don't let myself down. I am having a hard time feeling positive even though I'm working actively on positive thinking, and making progress here however I can. Just want to sleep the whole day to be honest.

1. I had a great day!

2. I attended a Mindfulness lead discussion to work on my Character and Virtue.

3. I stepped on my cat's paw. I feel terrible about that. I should've known better. He's always underfoot, right there with me. I should've looked before turning around. I've given treats and checked his paw out, and it looks to be okay, but I will continue to monitor him and take him to the vet if needed.
