Pencil Case Prompts and Reflections: Overcoming Challenges and What’s Keep Us Going

Posted on by SparklyWarTanks

What’s a challenge you’re working to overcome?

Let’s talk a bit about some challenges we’re being faced with and the ways we are managing, navigating, and/or overcoming them (whatever that looks like!).

A challenge I’m working to overcome is motivating myself to be more active, go out, and open myself up to new opportunities. A theme I’ve noticed this year overall in terms of my self-care and growth is gaining enough confidence in myself to do things out of my comfort zone. I know that I have some fears of the unknown, so I’m being patient with myself as I explore new and different possibilities.

What about you?

What’s keeping you going right now?

With all that’s happening in the world and with all the challenges we are faced with (holiday depression, anyone?), I want to say I’m super proud of each and every one of you who may be also experiencing challenges, too (including myself 🙂).

Today, let’s share what’s keeping us going! Hope is healing, right?

I’ll go first!

My family and my passion to continue sharing my story are what’s keeping me going right now.

8-Day Reflection Card Series Day 2

Posted on by SparklyWarTanks

What are you good at?!

Sometimes we get wrapped up in our struggles and hardships that we don’t stop and practice activities and skills we are good at that can calm us down. Just as much as we spend our time doing things we feel we have to do, we can also do things we want to do.

Being active in activities, skills, and hobbies we are good at is satisfying and can boost our self-esteem.

The list of possible activities, skills, and hobbies are endless and aren’t limited to specifics. You can be good at whistling, organizing messes, painting, writing short stories, being a good listener, etc.

Hint: Think of what you are good at and helps you cope.

My Reflection

For me, I’m really good at organization and creative projects. Nothing calms me down more than the satisfying feeling of a clean and organized space to do my projects in.
