I wish
I wonder where I would be now if I could of accessed a group, organisation or system that buddied people together to achieve set goals.
Starting off with daily contact and tapering off til I had the confidence and courage to carry on, developing self discipline on the way.
Does anyone else ponder this too?
@GypsyRed
I have never been thinking about this, but it sure makes sense Red! And I don't even think that this is impossible. We already here have a whole community which is overflowing with support projects. I am sure that you could make a thread regarding some current goals we have in life. Then we could post daily or weekly our progress and the steps we took towards achieving those goals; and we could keep each other accountable. Do you think that this would be a good way of realizing that idea of yours?
Sending you hugs and support! ❤️
Hi Sleepwalker, thank you for your reply.
As I am a newbie, I am still trying to figure my way around 7Cups and seeing what the site offers.
Your suggestions are food for thought.
My main areas that I find difficult are maintaining focus and not being able to finish a task or project, especially a course.
Do you have anything that you struggle with?
@GypsyRed
You are most welcome Red! Please feel free to ask anything about this site, I would love to help :)
You can search support via posting in subcomms just like you did now, via chatrooms (go to the top of your screen -> Chat -> Group support chat
There you will find plenty of chatrooms on various topics that might interest you.
And of course, there is the Browse listeners section where you can choose which listener you want to connect with, or just the "Connect me with a listner" button; in that case you will be connected to an available listener at the moment.
You can also check out the 7 Cups guides (topics like Managing Emotions, Work stress, Anxiety, Depression etc.) and I find most of them to be very helpful!
On the site you can also find mindfulness exercises...
...so far this is everything I could think of. Just feel free to explore and I am sure that things will just "click" for you.
And of course, I am struggling with various things in life too. I think the one which I'm struggling most at the moment is setting the right priorities and acting accordingly to them.
Thank you Sleep for your advice and guidance, it has been very helpful.
I will explore them later today when I am back on 7Cups.
What is puzzling me is the progress path, I seem to be stuck on 13 and before that it skipped 9 & 10, then said I completed them.
Do you why or what happen?
I understand when you say about setting up priorities, I feel like I'm trying to build a sand castle as the tide is coming in and out. It stands for a little while then crash when the big waves come in and I'm drenched.
