[MEGA] What is your goal for today?

VanWeyden said:
Ok, I'll write my goals for tomorrow now:

- Starting with sports again, at least half an hour of jogging. I feel really uncomfortable and tired right now, thats when I know I have to exercise to get well again.

- Hopefully get a positive result for my application. I know I can't influence this anymore but it would be great. However, my goal is to take it as it comes.

- Clean my room and do the laundry

- Convince my addiction therapist that it is not necessary to hand in a medical certificate for my absence last week and that I don't need to attend the group til the end of the month. I am quite oversupplied with therapy right now and sitting there two hours every thursday without a purpose is a pain in the ass.

#1 and #4 - succeed

#2 - queue. I really hope that is not a bad sign.

#3 - fail. As soon as I'm entering my room I become a lazy blop...

Whatever. Goals for easter weekend:

1. Not going insane while visiting my parents.

2. Work out the exam questions for my students.

That's it.

Yeah this is my main goal too :)

My other goal is to not drink. I've got that one pretty down-pat now though :)

This is probably the one I should really be focussing on. Instead of sugar coating my life by saying I am going to do more "physical" things like building gardens or painting bathrooms.

Badfish <3 good luck with your job!!! I am so excited for you! First jobs are so fun. You're gonna like it. You make so many friends. The only friends I actually still have are friends I made at my first job.
 
Thanks stardust and foot <3

Today my goal is to talk/flirt with this girl :D I've been doing much better except my fears are still holding me back somewhat, but they can go screw themselves. Nobody can resist a badfish.
 
My current goal above all is to quit smoking weed. Not only that, but to forget about weed and leave it in the past. Weed is the worst thing that ever happened to me and I've done a lot of stuff they say is way worse for you. I'm so addicted I've been quitting for 2 years, it's a joke. I threw all my weed stuff away yesterday which was nice, I feel a bit liberated but it wasn't my first time smashing a bong. But I get horrible depressive and anxious downs when I stop, I smoke maybe 10 times more than is required to be high my whole life, it's a compulsion I'm brainwashed to give drug dealers money. It has caused me so much pain, and it's "just weed". It's utter garbage it turns me into a zombie in the world of social things, I'm a diminished soul I barely exist. Sorry to rant I'm just so angry at myself, and <snip> I've done this before, having accomplished a 3 month break when things eventually got SO much better before I smoked once when I was real upset about something now here I am having been stoned all fucking winter after that, I'm so sick of being stoned, but I'm already feeling better having destroyed the burden of my paraphernalia that allows me to scrounge the tiniest amounts of weed. This is an incredibly difficult battle to leave this shit in the past it's ingrained in me I think about it so much it's so unhealthy it fucks my head up so so bad but I always go back to it because recovery is rather quick, and once I'm feeling great I just wanna get high, and I forget about the pain it has caused me, I'm only thinking about the wonderful high I'll get before I start chasing it and destroying my mind. Fuck. Rant complete

To make my mum a birthday cake :)
This will not be as easy as it may sound, because a) I am retarded in the kitchen and b) I don't know how to use my mum's oven :D
Challenges are good...
 
To enjoy time with my family. To not count on drugs to get me through my time with them, but enjoy their company sober and healthy.
 
Wonderful goal! I really enjoyed the time I've spent with my family today.

My goal is to practice some guitar and get further into The Hunger Games. I gotta say I'm really enjoying this book.

That made me laugh, n3o! I hope it all turns out! Just remember though, in case it falls or something, we moms truly LOVE everything our kids make us.:)<3

My goal for the day was to get out and do something with a friend and I did---so, success! we went to the most amazing show called Math and Art that featured all this amazing original origami figured out mathematically. Many had over 200 folds. It was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. (Actually it started to make me feel like I came from the lower end of the gene pool but I quickly nixed that stupid voice and had a great day!)

I've been reading these lately too, I'm halfway through the 3rd one now. They are very good at sucking you in, but I don't think the books are perfect. I think she misses a lot of opportunity to really delve into the issues presented more deeply - some really troubling situations are skimmed over, when a further insight into the moral, ethical and psychological issues raised would've been really interesting.

Anyway, that brings me to my goal, which is to get onto this massive uni report, and not get sucked into the BL/Hunger Games vortex ;)

Glad you had a good day with your friend herby <3
 
As soon as I wake up, read Chapter 5 of Linguistics, make it to my psychologist on time (always late), write up a 3 page term paper, and walk half a mile. Hopefully, I can clean my room and car somewhere in the middle of that. At least there's no class tomorrow, score!

Luckily, my psychologist has ADD as well, and is helping me develop practical coping strategies. One of them is setting small, realistic, daily goals: when I saw this thread, I smiled :)
 
My goal for today is to remain positive for the entire day. My day started off with a bang of positivity and I'll be damned if I let bad feelings creep up on me today.
