Sometimes it can be so easy to focus on the things in my life that are going wrong. However, it is so tremendously important to stay positive and appreciate each day along with the challenges it may bring us. 0 Reply reality1 year agorealityNever to bend towards, cower or cave to the torture of me. Have a nice day 🙂 reality 1 Reply Mica1 year agoMicaBrother David has some good not-to-do’s in his letter to us 1 Reply Sue1 year agoSueAs I look over the previous responses I can identify so much with so many of them. Sometimes I feel to make myself a better person I have more “not to do’s” than “to does”. I have been working hard at not being judgmental of others and being more positive with them and will continue this journey. 2 Reply Malag1 year agoMalagI work on how I want to behave and the “not do’s” flow from that. I feel I give too much to the not do things by saying ‘thou shalt not’ . 3 Reply Linda1 year agoLindaDo not let the state of the world define who I am today. 7 Reply GCharlotte1 year agoGCharlotte“Not To Do”:List, Make fights. Argue with my parents. Litter. Sarcasm. Break the Commandments. Waste Anything or Time. 2 Reply Ose1 year agoOseSeveral of the aspects already mentioned; to not try to control things, which are not for me to control; to not eat in a prolonged “Holiday” mode, meaning change to vegan on a daily basis, to not fill myself with doubt and fear, to not narrow myself down nor the perspective on things, not to forget my humor despite this open list… 🙂 2 Reply Cato1 year agoCatoOverthinking and feeling bad for myself. 6 Reply Toby1 year agoTobySome wonderful answers to this question. For me, it has to be to not let that self-defeating inner critic fill me with doubt and fear and despair. To not let that darn voice go unchallenged 6 Reply KC1 year agoKCDo no harm. Don’t get too caught in tired old narratives …and when / as I do, practice returning to breath, body, the present moment, the much, much greater all that is … 5 Reply Toby1 year agoTobyI second all of that KC 🙂 2 Reply KC1 year agoKCThanks Toby. ? KC 0 Reply Karmit1 year agoKarmitTo be concerned with or try to change the ‘things’ I have no control over – is on the top of my “not to do” list. 3 Reply pkr1 year agopkrDo not engage in the “news” of the day and get all worked up. Do not get angry or upset by others and their words, actions. Do not continuing eating as if it is the “holidays”. Do not forget to be kind and loving. ❤️ 5 Reply Cathy1 year agoCathy“Do not get angry or upset by others and their words, actions.” ← That is a really big one for me. Thank you for mentioning this one, pkr- I need to keep it forefront. 1 Reply Alisa Bridges1 year agoAlisa BridgesDo not get overwhelmed with the to do list. Do not be judgemental and unkind. Do not waste the day being on the computer. 5 Reply Michele1 year agoMicheleNot to be lazy – be a little more active today than yesterday. Cut back on fast food. 3 Reply Linda1 year agoLindaNot let the little voice in my head reign today. It is always waiting to remind me of times I have failed in the past. It is very wearing and it will be nice to have a break! 6 Reply Toby1 year agoTobyTotally with you here 0 Reply 1 year agoanswer to both of today’s questions : I actively work on creating harmony. it’s inner work, like renouncing to cling to old stories. and it’s outer work, showing kindness in different ways. little suprises, smiles is one way, being willing to be touched by the kind acts of others is another way. being open and appreciative and willing to look fresh over and over again is the best way to show kindness right now. 3 Reply Present Moment1 year agoPresent MomentNot go wandering into past or future 5 Reply Cathy1 year agoCathyWhat a great way to put it, Amor fati. I agree! 1 Reply Deb1 year agoDebYeah, I have to be mindful of that very thing daily. 2 Reply Michele1 year agoMicheleme too. 2 Reply Lily1 year agoLilyDon’t: Go to church this morning. Feel guilty about it. Instead: Let myself rest this morning to fight off cold. Putter over to my daughter’s for lunch of soup and cake. Have quiet, delightful day. 7 Reply sunnypatti1 year agosunnypattiNot to let my ego take over my thoughts. Not to overwork my body when it needs rest. 5 Reply 1 2 Next » My Private Gratitude Journal Write an entry in your private gratefulness journal Get Started This site is brought to you by A Network for Grateful Living, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
