Day 198: Accomplishment

Today I felt grateful for the sense of accomplishment that happens when something gets done - whether it be "small" or "large" or in between.  And sometimes it's a subtle thing that gets accomplished that nobody else can see but my spirit knows.  Do you know what I mean?  Maybe it's why I like a "to do" list.  As I mark things off, no matter how intensive or laborious the task was I grow in feeling like I have accomplished something that day! And days that I don't feel like a thing has been accomplished are frustrating for me. I like to know that I was awake and participating in at least one productive thing each day. How about you? Have you ever thought about being grateful for something obscure like accomplishment?

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.

Call it a Day

The literal use of this phrase hails from 1838 when the phrase originally was "call it half a day" to mean leaving work early. (source) The modern use of the phrase is to indicate ending something due to false sense of accomplishment.
