I was going through old posts and categorizing them (for your reading pleasure – I know you were all upset and say to yourself, “Hey, I want to read all her posts about gardening, but gee, they are so hard to find”) and I came across the posts from the beginning of my Happiness Project. One of them was the 10 Commandments of Me. I wanted to re-read it to see if the commandments still applied.
The idea was to make 10 statements about who I am or who I want to be. I want to re-post my 10 statements because I think it is worthwhile.
My 10 Commandments:
1) Be Me
2) Every day matters
3) Laugh often
4) Love always
5) Be good to myself in order to be good to others – this is not a luxury
6) Pay attention
7) Find the problem – fix it
8) Be creative
9) Ask for help
10) Make time for family and friends
It was funny, reading them. There are some I am doing quite well (Laugh Often, for example…I laugh A LOT…sometimes quite inappropriately. Especially at work.) and some I really need to keep working on (Pay Attention, Every Day Matters and many more…SO MANY MORE!).
I guess it was a good reminder that I am a work in progress.
