Day 184: Documenting Personal Growth

Posted on January 29, 2023

It’s late on a Sunday night so let’s keep this short and sweet.

I continue to get value out of documenting my personal journey on this blog. Here are three areas where I have been seeing personal growth and writing about it:

  • getting comfortable saying “no” or changing plans
  • self-acceptance and unconditional love
  • getting over worrying what others think.

Here’s my little compilation of posts that deal with each area:

Getting Comfortable Saying “No” or Changing Plans

Day 149: Chinks in the Armor

Self-Acceptance and Unconditional Self-Love
