I hate mornings. Every weekday morning I groan and grumble before rolling out of bed. The other day my partner said, as he often does in jest, "Yay, it's morning!" So I asked what was so great about it, and he replied: "You survived through another night!" I couldn't really argue with that!
I'm not sure if surviving another night is really an achievement I can take credit for, but it kind of works as an example for today's blog post, which is about praising yourself for your small achievements.
When we have a lot to do, we're having a stressful time or there just isn't very much going on, we can always give ourselves a pat on the back for something. It might be doing something small successfully, or something you do every day - sometimes just getting out of bed in the morning can be an achievement.
So take things a step at a time, and give yourself a pat on the back when you need to. It's all part of looking after yourself.
