tigeranneHere is my ambitious list:
1: I will not let despair win.
2: I will find a "project" for each night after work, even if it is mundane stuff I have to do anyway.
3: I will try to get back in touch with people I know, even if it's just by liking their FB pictures.
4: I will try to be the best I can at work.
5: I will work out a bit, every day, even if I feel that the world is ending, and I want to go to sleep.
6: I will try to learn how to do DIY home-improvement, starting by painting the long-planned work room.
7: I will not let despair win.
8: I will eat lots of fruit and vegetables.
9: I will quit drinking sodas and energy drinks on weekdays.
10: I will go into town every Friday after work, for old times' sake.
11: I will not sleep longer than 9 on days off, unless I has a sick.
12: I will not stay up longer than to 1am, if I have the next day off.
13: I will try to catch up on Game of Thrones, so I know what people are talking about.
14: I will apply for all the "dream jobs" I find listed, even if I have zero chance at getting them.
15: I will actually start an organized attempt at getting my novel series down on "paper."
16: I will not let despair win.

The sleep one is such a biggie for me - I just can't allow myself to stay up super late or sleep in, because it messes me up so bad. A sleep schedule is a Good Thing.
I don't know if you make to-do lists every day? I find it helps me, but it's not for everyone.
This sounds like a positive list! I'm rooting for you!

Date: 2017-01-01 11:50 pm (UTC)The Friday town visits is basically just to relearn going out with no specific plan. It was something I did with my Mom when I was younger. The main goal was getting some groceries for the weekend, but we usually peeked around in other shops for an hour or so, before getting to the business. Sometimes we'd pop by the video rental, and pick out a movie to watch. Awww, the good old days before Netflix. <3 The plan for this Friday is just to see if I can meet up with an old colleague for a cup of coffee, that we've been talking about having since this time last year!
