Maintenance tasks, do what works for me, think good thoughts
someone said “all action is born in thought, life  is reflection of
thinking”

'By doing your best, the habits of misusing your word, taking things Personally, and making assumptions will become weaker and less Frequent with time. You don't need to judge yourself, feel guilty, or Punish yourself if you cannot keep these agreements. If you're doing Your best, you will feel good about yourself even if you still make Assumptions, still take things personally, and still are not impeccable With your word.
If you do your best always, over and over again, you will become a Master of TRansformation. Practice makes the master. Everything you have ever learned, you
learned through repetition. You learned to write, to drive, and even to
walk by repetition. You are a master of speaking your languageec BECause you practiced. Action is what makes the difference.
If you do your best in the search for personal freedom, in the search
for self-love, you will discover that it's just a matter of time before you
find what you are looking for." don Miguel Ruiz

    TraditionTwelve - 9 Sep 2014 - 1:42pm

    Please do not leave advice or feedback.  Thank you.  Prayers welcome. 

                                                                                                                

    I was previously doing this on 43things.  I may flesh out this post later, when I get home, but I wanted to make this commitment, while I was not H.A.L.T.  I just heard something insane that we aren't sick days, but that's a tail for another post.  I just want to commit for myself to 21 days of exercise.  I would pick a different number of days, but I want it to be long enough that I can actually make some measurable progress, and yet, short enough that it's something I've done before.  The commitment is 30 minutes of exercise before 12am, in one of the following formats:

    *biking

    *swimming

    * running

    * walking

    * dance

    * fitness class

    * martial arts class 

    (or a combination thereof) 

    My topline behavior is to do 30 minutes worth of the running plan each work day and 1 hour of the running plan on non-workdays.  On rest days in my running plan, I *can* do other cross-training that is not walking or running related.  The idea is to keep the rest day intact, while still doing some form of mild exercise.   The emphasis is on *can*, meaning allowed to.  But the commitment is just 30 minutes of some form of exercise as listed above.   

     

    Well, Day 1 was successful.  On to day 2. Going to make sure to do what I need to do in order to make jogging a priority: water, food (maybe), getting changed.

    TraditionTwelve - 8 Sep 2014 - 12:54pm

    Please do not leave advice or feedback.  Thank you.  Prayers welcome. 

                                                                                                            

    So yeah, I reckon, it's really important to me to go to at least one of my program meetings each week.  Like for instance.  Last Friday I went to a meeting in my SLAA program, but I did not get to do the PA meeting, and that was well, frankly shitty.  I don't want to do that again.  It just feels icky, but so did everything else that happened on Sunday, b/c Saturday was an eight hour train ride, which is fine. Anyways, ideally I'd like to attend three of my program meetings per week.  I'm in PA, OSPA, SLAA, Coda, and others.  But those are the major ones.  The bottomline behavior would be to do at least one meeting Sunday through Saturday.  And I want to at least stick with that so I have some connection to my twelve step identity and recovery.

    Something I picked up from my last meeting (an excerpt from the AA 12 & 12 Step 10):

    "Nothing pays off like restraint of tongue and pen."

    This past few weeks has contained a lot of one-offs or rare things that need to be done. I am handling stuff pretty well, but just need to get a few more hard things out of the way so I can concentrate on my day-to-day work and hopefully stope waking early in the morning.

    • keep it shorter than you would naturally write
    • look at past emails for ideas
    • Be honest, open and enthusiastic.
    • SEND IT
    • txt her to check she got it if no reply an hour or so later.
    Exam 
    • Double-check first two sections

    It was a bit of a slog, including a complete brain failure moment, but I got it done. Well done me. Crossing a lot of rubicons at the moment. And it's tiring but I can do it. It teaches me that no matter how anxious I am, or how hard something looks - I can deal with it.

    Did an insufficient amount of cleaning/decluttering/organising yesterday, find the mess too overwhelming and not enough storage of any description, still, after all these years with the same problem: you'd think I'd have the hang of it by now!

     

    1. walk dogs: 1/2 hour
    2. have a shower, get dressed etc: 1/2 hour
    3. tidy up kitchen: 20mins
    4. straighten out hallway, including hoover/mop floor: 1/2 hour
    5. bring charity shop donation to car with view to dropping off at charity shop.
    6. drive to 1pm appointment/service. 1.5hrs
    7. home via suitable charity shop ditching unwanted clutter.
    8. home at circa 3pm: food.
    9. tackle living room in phases: declutter/put away/clean x 2 or possibly x 3.
    10. 6.30 pm: pick up travel cot.
    11. 7.30 pm: go to meeting.
    12. hang out with friends post-meeting.
    13. walk dogs.
    14. write next day's to do list.
    15. sleep.

    Also keep track of activities using time-log sheet. And at some point make important phone calls...

    Well I've been very off-plan today, and not done ANY cleaning, not even loading the dishwasher... and now I'm being self-indulgent and watching tv with my feet up! Yet I still have to get the place ready for my friends' visit tomorrow...

    hazyjane - 1 Sep 2014 - 12:11pm

    Once more fell off the wagon of procrastination, and have to climb back on again. In fairness, I have had a really troubled summer, so I totally forgive myself for not being on top of things. But, it's a new month, and I'd really LIKE to get back into some sort of healthy routine with check-ins etc.

    It's already 6pm here in the UK, so,

    • declutter /clean living room in 15minute increments, use the chat room, until
    • 8.30pm, head to meeting
    • getting home circa 10.30, get ready for bed
    • read
    • plan my day! Make a list!! Write check-in post!!!
    • Sleep

    ok, off to chat room now armed with a timer :)
