I remember a thread like this a good few years ago when I was a member but I can't seem to find it. If there's already a thread please let me know
UPDATE: I've found Fairyclicks old thread here
http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.php?t=4360443&highlight=positive+steps
But anyway, it was a really good thread. Each member posts 10 (or however many you like) positive things to complete each day and updates the post with however many you managed to complete.
For example:
1. Finish the ironing
2. Pay money into bank
3. Make doctors appointment
4. Ring Sky
5. Batch cook
6. Change bedding
7. Take dog for a walk
8. Have a relaxing bath
9. Watch tv episode
10. Clean washer drawer
Hope I haven't duped a thread!
