SYL wk2 My Values

Simplify Your Life Week 2:

What are your values? What do you stand for?

I value:
  • Family and my animals...nicknamed The Zoo by friends
  • Sustainability: I don't want to add to the worlds problems, I want to live simply and teach my son about the joys of sustainability.
  • Peace, Calm and trying to live Stress free: The first step is to declutter my house, I have started this by re-starting Flylady.  http://www.flylady.net/ Yesterday I created My Control Journal: a handbook for the way your house runs, every ones is different as no household or person is the same. Mine is in a A4 folder, the flimsy kind and it sits in the middle of my dinning table so I see it when i first get up instead of ignoring it
  • Love: Creating strong bonds with my family, neighbours and friends
  • Fun: Making sure I have fun with my family and not be so serious and grown up all of the time
  • Positivity: Life is what you make it, what you see in others is what you want to see. I try to see the silver lining of every situation and to take deep breaths sometimes when it is hard to see the silver lining.
  • My community and the people who try so hard to make things better.
