By this time next year I plan to...

[CMF]

Hi all,

This thread has been inspired by the program 'This time next year', a TV show where people pledge to work on changing something in their lives within the space of a year. It could be anything, overcome a fear, lose weight, learn a new skill, overcome illness, get fit, anything at all. It doesn't matter how big or small it is, just something that's important to you. Hopefully, this time next year, we can look back and reflect on what we have achieved, with updates along the way.

So I will kick it off;

By this time next year...

I would like to be back working or doing something with my life to feel more independent and better about myself.

Hi all,

I'm bumping this thread up because I don't know how on earth we suddenly got to the middle of November but I can see that before we know it this year will be over. A challenging year no doubt as we all struggle with MH issues. Some will be glad to see the year over, some facing new challenges, some hoping for a fresh start.

So tell me, where do hope to be this time next year?

Hey CMF.

Ok as far as physical goes I want to be healthier, ( back issues playing up ATM) be settled in new home with lovely new healthy grandbaby and Working a little to keep me mentally alert .

Emotionally, I wan to be in control of my own happiness and if it includes other certain people great if not I will live with that.

Mentally I want to be less insecure . I want to be more confident of my place in this world and feel I am living a worthwhile life.

I want to be less selfish of my own needs and wants and look to help others who find themselves in situations of despair and hopelessness.

Inspiring as always.

Hi CMF and all,

Great thread and am loving everyone’s contributions 🙂

This time next year?

I am not 100% sure at this stage. Hopefully I’ll be able to return to this thread with more clarity at some later point.

I suppose I would love to have more of a “zest” for life and to feel as though my life was more meaningful and interesting. I’m not too sure what that entails as I’ve given a very vague response...as I’m said, I’m still thinking...

I would like to learn another language. Maybe mandarin as I know it’s spoken by so many people in the world and is becoming an increasingly important language.

Also, I am hoping to have made serious progress in terms of my career plans/ambition.

But it’s all still a bit up in the air at the moment.

Thanks for reading.

Pepper xoxo

Hi Pepper,

12 months can seem like a long way away but time goes by so fast. I love your ideas. Hopefully as the year progresses you have more clarity and will see how yo work toward your goals. Remember, if you don't get there or don't do all of them, that's ok too.
