Imaginary conversation with Rick:
You should track the number of days you have been surfing since retirement
Why?
So you can beat the days surfer per month each year!
Why does it need to be an improvement or decline?
What would it matter if it does or doesn’t?
It doesn’t
Maybe so you can see how far you’ve come from before retirement
See above
You should be trying your best everyday regardless of the past
Your best could be an improvement in a skill or in self care or something else
Habit tracker makes you feel bad you missed a day or didn’t do as well as before.
What does it matter that yesterday, you did it too?
What does it matter that before yesterday, you did it a bunch of times too, if you didn’t do it today?
And if you didn’t do it today, should you try any more or less tomorrow because of it?
Do your best
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for meeting me where I am
It doesn’t matter how I perform
There’s nothing I can do that You could not do better
You just want my effort in transforming my heart into something that is pleasing to You
