In our countdown to World Mental Health Day, we wanted to save our favorite challenge for last. Our hope is that you will practice doing this today, tomorrow, and for the remainder of the year.
It sounds simple enough. But when set in motion, we all share the same tendency to pile on more tasks than necessary. And when we can’t complete each task, we start to feel guilty, useless, and stressed.
When you set realistic goals, you’re setting yourself up for success each day.
Here’s a few tips on how to set realistic goals:
Aside from setting realistic goals, make sure you recognize small victories throughout the day: the kids didn’t fight each other; the dog didn’t have any accidents in the house; you started the day with a delicious cup of coffee, etc.
There’s much to be grateful for each day. The key is recognizing those moments and appreciating them when they happen.
Congratulations on completing our 10-Day Mental Challenge. We hope you found these daily challenges fun, inspiring, and helpful. Try to include these ideas into your routine—but remember challenge #5 that it’s also important to break up the montany every now and then.
