The One About Jump Back July
I love the Action for Happiness calendars. You can access them via https://www.actionforhappiness.org/calendars A new one is published each month.
July is all about resilience. It’s about choosing how to respond. June ended on a very low point for me, so this has come at just the right time. I’ll add to this post each day to track my progress.
- I’m not good at asking for help. I’m going to ask for feedback one something I applied for recently, though, which is a big step for me as I’m usually more of a “dust myself down and get on with something else” person.
- Some things I am looking forward to – camping with my babies, getting my roots re-dyed, new nails, my adventure holiday, C2C 2021, time with my favourite Geeks & Goddesses, pressing ‘send’ on my class end of year reports!
- Adopt a growth mindset. I find this hard. But, I know I need to try. I just can’t be positive about some situations yet 😉
- Find an action to overcome a problem. Today I took part in #BrewEd #AspiringSchoolLeaders and that’s given me a few good ideas for helping to shape my next career steps.
- Avoid saying “must” and use “should” today. We booked a NT visit. We didn’t go because we laid in too late. Does that count?
- Can’t go into detail but after a little grumble, and a good chat, I can see a way forward. It’s a long path, but I will get somewhere even if it’s not where I wanted to go!
- Dinner with friends 🌮
- Well, it’s hard to do all that today as it’s a work day! I managed an early start, a good breakfast and a walk after the school run. Not too bad considering!
- Help someone. Well, I was at work, so helping children all day! Didn’t find an extra special person in need though.
- Today was a good day! Something different happened, not sure how it went but I did OK I think!
- Had a lovely trusting gossip with my friends today…. does that count!?!?
- Be compassionate to yourself. Well, I’m starting my day a little earlier and using that time to read the newspaper via an app our local library service subscribes to. It’s my time each day now.
- Chat with a friend earlier had me being the “positive pants” person to try and counter her negativity (role swap!)
- I’m working on dreaming big but setting a path made of achievable steps.
- This is something I find tricky – constantly providing childcare to my own children or my class leaves very little opportunity for this.
- That’s a favourite phrase already 😆
- Today hasn’t had many worries. Thoughts, yes. But not worries.
- This is going to be the focus of my summer.
- I’ve had so much more time with my babies since March 18th!
- What’s the best that could happen? I’ll keep buying that lottery ticket 💰 Decisions that aren’t made based on financial implications would be the best.
