This assumes to be true what Abraham Lincoln said, that "most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be."</LI> <LI>Just for today I will adjust myself to what is, and not try to adjust everything to my own desires. I will take my "luck" as it comes, and fit myself to it.</LI> <LI>Just for today I will try to strengthen my mind. I will study. I will learn something useful. I will not be a mental loafer. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration.</LI> <LI>Just for today I will exercise my soul in three ways; I will do somebody a good turn, and not get found out; if anybody knows of it, it will not count. I will do at least two things I don't want to do - just for exercise. I will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt; they may be hurt, but today I will not show it.</LI> <LI>Just for today I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I can, dress becomingly, talk low, act courteously, criticize not one bit, not find fault with anything, and not try to improve or regulate anybody but myself.</LI> <LI>Just for today I will have a wellbeing plan. I may not follow it exactly, but I will have it. I will save myself from two pests : hurry and indecision.</LI> <LI>Just for today I will have a quiet half hour all by myself, and relax. During this half hour, sometime, I will try to get a better perspective of my life.</LI> <LI>Just for today I will be unafraid. Especially I will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful, and to believe that as I give to the world, so the world will give to me.</LI> </UL> Sun, 14 Apr 2019 09:10:27 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/staying-well/just-for-today/m-p/429282#M39228 Soberlicious96 2019-04-14T09:10:27Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/staying-well/just-for-today/m-p/429283#M39229 <P>Hi Soberlicious96</P> <P>Thankyou for the great post....Very helpful and then some <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":slightly_smiling_face:">🙂</span></P> <P>Just for today....(and if poss tomorrow) I will</P> <UL> <LI> walk slow...think slow and talk slow......to avoid overthinking anxiety causing symptoms/thoughts</LI> <LI>turn off/mute my mobile an hour before bed to ensure some quality sleep (slow down my brain activity)</LI> <LI>have no high expectations </LI> </UL> <P>my kind thoughts and I hope your day has been good to you <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":slightly_smiling_face:">🙂</span></P> <P>Paul</P> <P> </P> Sun, 14 Apr 2019 09:29:17 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/staying-well/just-for-today/m-p/429283#M39229 blondguy 2019-04-14T09:29:17Z
