Parent Testing a Habit: Accept What You Have

8 October 2007 3 Comments

My habit this week from Zen Habits 52 Tips for Happiness and Productivity was to work on accepting what I have.

This is a good habit for me to form because i’m always focusing on the next goal and miss out on enjoying and celebrating the every day pleasures and successes. I dealt with a lot of house stuff last week so my focus was still firmly on the future and the goal of moving, this week I hope I can focus on spending time with Erin and my husband enjoying what we have and the excitement of moving house.

What are you focusing on this week?

    hey thanks, I needed that today.
    I am constantly looking to the next thing, and am going to make a conscious effort to stay in the present.

    I’m finding focusing on a different habit or challenge each week is quite beneficial. It’s so easy to get bogged down.
