A word a month - CHECK IN

Let's try that post again!!

Since it has been about 15 days since this experiment began, it is time for a check in.

Here is what I have experienced:

EASY - to choose the word
EASY - to write the affirmation in present tense and embellish it in a positive context
MODERATE - to start the day WITH the affirmation
EASY - to recognize the positive impact of focusing on this concept even if missed a day
DIFFICULT - to avoid negative self talk when missed a day, or fell back to the old behavior
EASY - to be grateful for the improvements

And, 'grateful for the improvements' is the best part. Even with the slip ups, I have moved closer toward my desired picture. This topic remains top of mind. And, I notice the difference. How refreshing.

How did it go for you?
What was easy for you? What changes have you seen? Were there any speed bumps (moderate or difficult aspects) for you? Have you added nuances that have worked well for you?


We have 15 more days!

And, then the decision: do we stay with THIS word or consider another? And, even more basic than that, do we stay with this affirmation process?
