A little Mountain Dew goes a long way

Today was an okay day. I got a good nights sleep last night, and that helped me this morning. I lacked motivation, but I set my goals to clean my kids' room and their toy room. I had a panic attack on my way to the store today to buy some Mountain Dew. I'm still so scared to leave my house, and for some reason today it was too much. I had to turn around to take a Klonopin. I made it to the store, made it through the store, and home. Then I popped a Mountain Dew and found my motivation for the day. I accomplished my goals of cleaning the kids' room and the toy room! It feels really good to set a goal in the morning and accomplishing it before I go to bed. Setting small accomplishable goals makes for a great feeling when I accomplish that goal. A sense of accomplishment means a lot. It goes along with getting better. Everyday I am able to set slightly bigger goals, and looking back it feels great to be able to have gotten so much done just by starting out one day with a goal to get up and showered in the morning. I used to set weekly goals, but I have found setting a daily goal works so much better for me.
