    it is entirely for your own eyes ... so you can be honest with yourself ... but if you feel like posting and letting people know any or all bits then that is up to you .... this is to be done your way ... and only if you want to

    one thing ... like polly did previously.... give every single bit a good think about ... leave it for a while go back to it if you want ... change things ... get it exactly how you think it should be ... and take your time ... this isnt a race and its better to be done right than to be done fast

    Welcome Jubilee76, PurpleJellyFish, ayedlfc and andy40, I set the tread up but Elantan is the one doling out the homework :rotfl:

    I hope to be able to start this this evening - I have a docs appointment the afternoon I wasn't expecting (got a phone call this morning asking me to see the Doctor after my nurses appointment, they took bloods to check thyroid, cholesterol and diabetes :eek:, so at the moment I can't get my head around anything)
    Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup :D

    hi all ,

    well thats night shift finished for another wee while ... after my last night shift i stay up till bedtime so that i dont mess my days up ... but it is a long haul hence the reason i wasnt on i would be spouting some gibberish ...

    right ..for those that are interested and want some homework lol

    i am enjoying reading some peoples thoughts ... polly your getting to the heart of the matter and having a real think about this nice one ... micron you will probably recognise alot of what i am going to be doing ... feel free to add ... infact anyone feel free to add it will help immensely

    i have asked you to think about if you could change one thing would it make an impact on all the others ... now i want you to go grab a piece of paper a pen/pencil/quill whatever and start your brain storming ... there are various parts in our lives that define us .... put them into catagories ... like work , money , religon, health , social relationships, personal relationships, etc ...

    then i want to you grade them to how happy you are in each out of 10 ... so if you are totally in love with your partner and you think your relationship couldnt be any better if you tried ... go for a ten ... if you think your job is okish go for say a five ... what ever feels suitable for you ..

    get them all down on a piece of paper in what ever way suits you linear or a spider diagram or any other way ... its your work here and it needs to be understandable to only you .. what is the most important thing is you are totally honest with yourself ... you can lie here or to anyone else ... but to yourself you have to be totally honest ...

    this is all basically aimed at getting us all to think

    good luck

    Blimey :eek: (said in best Brummy accent, lol!)

    Nice questions...:T

    I am proud to say I CAN give a ten to my relationship - yay! :D

    Yes - but I did think about weighing in again afterwards to see if I had lost any weight :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
