If you had to prioritize the NEXT best thing for you to do for yourself.....what would it be?Page 1 of 3    (1, 2, 3)
For me it would be eating breakfast.

I'm really bad about that. I drink a half to a full cup of coffee every morning but I don't eat until much later in the day. Breakfast is THE most important meal of the day and yet I can't do it!

If I were to prioritize my "next best thing for me".......it would be that. Eat breakfast.

What's yours?

Hmm, interesting question. I should eat breakfast, too--just thought about that this morning, in fact. I'm not sure it is my "next best thing," though. It's summer and prioritizing seems like hard work right now. Can I get back to you? :)

To learn to take more time for myself. I have plenty of down time but spend it doing things that need doing. I am slowly learning it's okay to do something purely because I enjoy it and the world oddly doesn't stop when I do.

Empty my bladder - I hear it's not good to let it get too full as that can lead to having a weak bladder in your senior years.

Reach for the stars, OP.

BTW eating breakfast may not be as healthy as we've been lead to believe, especially if you eat a lot of carbs. Google around and you'll find some interesting takes on breakfast.

My next best thing for me? Get sober I guess.

wow this is really good food for thought. I try to keep on my toes and move forward as positively as I can, I think taking time out for myself, as well as concentrating having my own business again in the next 6 months, is my next focus.

I'm eating optimal foods right now- just not eating regularly...I eat a bit and get involved in long projects and can go all day without eating- so at least snacking optimally throughout the day.

Okay.....the more I write, the more I see I shouldn't! :)

I don't mean the NEXT thing as in RIGHT this minute. I mean, to make a CHANGE in your life that would be positive for you (and only YOU....this IS about YOU!).....what would it be?

What "habit" would you like to make (or break) that is ONLY for your satisfaction? And to your benefit.

Organic, I knew that was what you meant. I was being silly and light hearted because I dislike admitting that I know I should eat less and while I've been working on that slowly but surely... I'm pissed at myself that I'm not doing that change at a better pace.

Is this kind of like your small bucket list of things for yourself???

The best thing most of us can do for ourselves, seems to me to be able to take care of your needs emotionally, physically, and financially, and not need anyone to take care of you, or fill that need. Once there, it becomes infinitely easier to enjoy others that are equals and not looking for the next best thing to do....either for themselves or others doing for them.

...Number one. Get organized. I find that when things are clean and organized around me I not only feel better but I function better as well.
Number two. Stop procrastinating. I put EVERYTHING off till the last minute and then I stress. I'm my own worst enemy.
Number three. Time management...which goes hand in hand with the other two. If I was to prioritize...maybe this should be number one...lol
HELP!!!!!

Good timing organic! I was just thinking about how I've spent so much time on the forum I've neglected reading for pleasure ...books piled high...magazines still in their jackets, and I hate to admit back issue of the Sunday NYTimes - unread. Sad! I think I'm going to hide my laptop for a few days. Starting tomorrow...of course. smirk!

You're killing me Organic. Thanks for narrowing it down. I wasn't sure if the next best thing was to get the clothes out of the dryer or climb Mt Everest.

I guess I have too many things on my plate already. I shouldn't take on any more until I get caught up. I also just got back from my last best thing.

Besides. I wouldn't want to take away my time on the forums.

"breakfast" "organize" "read a book" - boring.

I want to find a man that looks like Tom Selleck, go to Vegas, have "Tom" wine and dine me, win at the slots, rub the one million cash I won all over my naked body, get married in the Little White Chapel and live happily ever after...

I can clean my closests any old time. If we're going to think of the "NEXT best thing" for us - think big.

Reality - tonight I get to clean the litter box.

To stop setting off the fire alarms when cooking lol

Did it this evening while hard boiling some eggs, wandered off and got engrossed in a tv programme. I've now run out of saucepans!

I want to find a man that looks like Someone Who Makes Me Feel like a Na---- tu---- rul WO MAN. . . [LOL: Welch, my husband was constantly being mistaken for Tom Selleck. My reply when people would come up to us was, "No way: my husband is much better looking!":] go to the wilderness, hobble up the highest Adirondack peak we can manage, hit the top, soak up the view, hit the nearest evergreen carpet where my naked behind will be softly embraced with pine boughs as he'll quench my thirst, never get married, never leave the woods, and live happily ever after:)

Which means my next priority is to be more actively engaged in making this happen. LOL: So far I'm batting .000 for two at bats. (Yep. For those of you who give a flying sweet potato -- or who might be morbidly curious --- or who have come to love me like a sister, or, like me have been spending waaaaay too much time on these forums? "He" indeed seems to have gone "poof")

I have a cold, so taking care of myself & getting better is #1 on the list for me. Thank goodness I generally stock up on boxes of tissues!
