What do you value?  Family (other than romantic relationships or parenting) 10! My family has been here for me when nobody else has. Right now I'd be homelesws without my father. Romantic relationships (marriage, life partners, dating and so on) 7. My fiance means the world to me. He lives with me-- we have a child together... but I'd be lying if I said a 10 because when it comes down to it, I'd choose my son / myself over him. If he did something wrong or relapsed [were both in recovery], I'd have to choose my sons safety over my love for him-- he'd have to go. Parenting 10!!! I'd say 11 or a million if I could. Friends and social life 2 I used to be a social butterfly who needed to be out of the house 24/7. At one point this would have been a 10 and my family maybe even a 5 before I became a parent. Now, I couldn't care less about going out. I get mad when my fiance tries to drag me to go out. Work/Career Unfortunately, only about a 2 currently. I'm unemployed and have been for a very long time. If I could be financially stable, I'd never work a day in my life. I don't like it, it stresses me out. I can't even find a job I am decent at. It's depressing. Education, training, and knowledge 5. I can't say more than that because I dropped out of high school and have never been to college. But I teach myself on my own things that I'm interested in. I'm taking two classes at WdC. I'm considering, if affordable, signing up for a nutritionist course. The thing is, I don't learn conventionally or how others learn. I can't grasp anything in a classroom setting. I need to learn differently than others. School will never work for me. So, I don't even know if I'd stick to this nutritionist class but it's only 6 months [12 class sessions] buttttt it's 5 hours a class. I may lose concentration in that amount of time. Recreation, hobbies, and fun 10. Not so much "fun" but my hobbies-- absolutely. Reading, writing and yoga can take up my entire 24 hours at times. Spirituality and religion 2. I'm not a religious person. I consider myself Atheist. Spirituality I can get into as far as meditation and yoga which is the only reason I couldn't exactly put a 0 or 1. Citizenship and community life 1. It's a little immature but I couldn't care less about what's going on around me. I don't read the newspaper, watch the news, get involved, et cetera. Self care (exercise, diet, relaxation, and so on) 9. I am a yogi as I've mentioned. I do yoga almost daily. I drink water daily-- minimum 2 bottles a day [preferably more] I veer away from soda and energy drinks. I get the proper amount of sleep [most days]. I genuinely try to take care of myself. I am into Holistic approaches. I used to do Reiki and meditiation classes. I still do meditate but mainly only with my daily yoga practice. Although, there's days when I do yoga 3 times throughout the course of the day so I would have meditated 6 times. [beginning and end of sessions] Also, a huge part of self-care for me would be my recovery which has tto be my main focus or my entire life will fall apart. ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
