My Bucket Filling Journal

"So, we face a choice every moment of every day: We can fill one another's buckets, or we can dip from them. It's an important choice - one that profoundly influences our relationships, productivity, health, and happiness." Tom Rath I am so proud of you for choosing to complete these 30 days monitoring activities to improve your relationships, and consequently live a life with less stress, but a more flourishing life. Many complain about various situations in their life but do nothing to change it. When I did the 30 days monitoring my relationships, I noticed many things including that I was running away from many people, after my separation. I had to work on the relationship with myself, loving, forgiving and showing self-compassion to myself. Only after accepting me fully as I am, just a very human woman and being at peace with me, could I connect effectively with others to give and receive love.Today the work is still in progress, but I have a much better relationship with my children, my close family, and some friends I could reconnect after the huge drama following the divorce. Getting intentional to listen to what is going on inside and handling it with respect to my relationships, helped a lot. Therefore, I stopped running away from social gathering and rediscovered the joy of having a space where you are free to be you and be loved, accepted; a place where you belong.It took me more than 30 days to heal some relationships, but taking the time to stop, review and find answers let you see for yourself that relationships contribute greatly to one's well-being and health.I greatly encourage you to start now and continue to make time to notice and take adequate actions to build great relationships that blossoms.A good network of good relationships that provide a safe place of belonging is vital in trying times.Feel free to continue using this journal to track and work on improving your relationships.If you want to try other journals, I used to help reduce my stress in the One year no stress journals series, check my amazon page.Stay blessed in all regards as you take intentional actions to improve your life.
