January 2025 achievements!

kaiikaii Posts: 588 Incredible Poster
Hello everyone! How has everyone's January been?

I'm back again with the monthly achievement threads for 2025 this time! I started doing these threads because I think we can all benefit from reflecting on our victories - it helps us feel great about ourselves, and I find that our achievements serve as little reminders that we're doing the best we can to get through the challenges of life :smile:

I'd like to hear what things the community have done during this month that they are proud of! You can mention as many achievements as you like <3

Here are mine:
- I managed to persevere through a stressful exam period (it's so challenging to study during the winter where lots of things are happening!)
- I've developed confidence in driving on my own - I'm very thankful for my family supporting me with this :3
- I started to get back into doing mindfulness meditation and journalling! I've also started scrapbooking and I'm really looking forward to continuing
- I've made good progress with my psychology dissertation
- I've been completing training for my volunteer role in a hospital which I'm so excited to start soon!

Well done for always doing your best, I'm so so proud of you all <3

See you for the next achievement check-in in February!

    Love this so much @kaii! Thank you for starting this threvd up again <3 It sounds like it's been a busy month, and you've been pacing yourself through exams, learning to drive, volunteering and your dissertation. That's wonderful, and it feels lovely to celebrate together! What do you feel like you need most from February when it arrives?

    @shannon_164 , so lovely to hear your achievements too - and staying on top of college work whilst doing exams at the same time is no easy feat at all, so congratulations! It also sounds like a busy month with starting your new job, and securing interviews too. How exciting!

    @sinead276 I love that you've been feeling more courageous this month, and you're so right - getting through this month alone is a huge achievement, esspecially as its often one of the hardest times of the year for many people. What do you also feel you need most from February? <3

    @Amy22, hugs to you too for getting through January and these wintery days - we did it!
