I want to be in the habit of showing confidence.  I seem to be doing quite a lot of things for both myself and others, and I'm always developing my habits and skills.  It's just that I honestly need to look better doing it.  Confidence gets better results almost across the board.  Today, I'm going to do a few things.  

I'm going to get a payment reset, I'm going to prepare everything to pay off a debt tomorrow, and I'm going to get something done on going through my dad's old stuff taking up space and start taking charge of the project.

If I feel like I'm taking charge, I can have better confidence, and get better results in turn.  Also, it's better im case yet another thing blindsides us later.

I really want to get into the daily habit of daily journaling. I go through times where I'm devout about it and it does make me feel better. Then I go through long periods of not doing it at all. I know it is going to require some self discipline.

@ThoughtLight I know right! I've actually been doing it for a while now and it's super useful! A trick I use is to let myself have rest days, but not more than two nights in a row. it helps to have the journal right by your bed too :)

maintaining a habit is really hard but i wish you success in your journaling journey!

ThoughtLight January 10th

@Clarisse29 it all boils down to practicing self-discipline. Which in itself is another hard task. But all the hard tasks are made easier if you just keep the end goal in mind. Practicing visualization techniques can help. I can't think of anything involving self-betterment that is an easy route. But as the old saying goes the hardest things are worth fighting for.

If you love something you will definitely find ways to take out time for it. I wish you all the best👍

I would like to get into the habit of better thinking patterns.  I would like to leave the ruminating thoughts behind along with the ball of messy stuff that is in my mind.

Habit of writing and article research is something I would like to inculcate in myself. As it will increase my wisdom and wishful thinking to make me more and more productive.

well, it's actually a bad habit i want to stop, this year. I have a bfrb called dermatillomania, which is related to OCD. Anyway, it basically just causes me to repeatedly pick my skin, with what can feel like little to no control. This year, I have a goal to have just one day without picking. Sounds easy? Not so easy for me. I have tried repeatedly to stop, and I have caved every single time. It has been probably a few years since I've gone a full day without picking my skin, and it shows. But I have an amazing friend, we'll call her "N", who knew about my goal. One day about a week ago now, I had been pretty close to reaching my goal. I mean, I had picked at a few spots, but I decided I wouldn't count those. I told N, and she supported me and encouraged me. She also made a metaphor that she was "spotting" me, as we go to gym class together. She was so wonderful and I didn't want to dissapoint her, I didn't want to dissapoint myself. Near the end of the day I had to fight really hard to not pick, but I went to bed that night successful. Despite the few spots i had picked, i reached my goal. I am super happy with myself and I'm going to go for two days soon, maybe this week! And honestly, I wouldn't have been able to reach that if N wasn't here for me, thanks sweet girl.
