Today was not an easy day. Nothing awful. But I did NOT feel I embodied the “I Like Me” attitude. I felt like I was behind at work. I felt overwhelmed. I wanted to be better than I was. But I kept reminding myself to pull out of it and focus. Check my attitude and remember that even when I’m not my best, I’m still doing pretty great.

So my daily mission for today was to

1. Say out loud: 3 things I like about myself

So, in the quiet of my office I say

1. I like my eyes. Plain and simple, they are pretty.
2. I keep trying. I fail a lot. But I keep trying. I might want to throw in the towel on a regular basis. But then I get over it and try again.
3. I am a genuinely caring person. I give a lot to people and really care about what happens to them. I want to leave this earth knowing that I cared for people. Shared my heart with them. And knowing that my caring presence was meaningful in their lives. I try to practice this every day. And I think I do a pretty good job.

One other thing to note about this blog. It will not be beautiful writing. Its just coming out raw. Punctuation and proper grammar be damned. If I’m going to do this, I need to not worry about how good it is. So welcome to my brain, my thoughts, and my life.

Good luck on your first daily mission if you’re joining me on this adventure.
