In this week’s forecast of self-care challenges, we’ll be exploring the topic of list-making. 📋

Whether it be to shop for groceries or reflect on how you’re feeling, creating lists can definitely be a succinct and straightforward way to express and organize your thoughts and ideas. In other circumstances, creating lists can also feel like an added chore depending on your needs and preferences.

What are your thoughts? Do you find list-making helpful to you?

There are multiple ways we can think about our responsibilities — from the tasks we have to complete and check off of to-do lists to others we may have to look out for, lead, or take care of, like family, children, pets, coworkers, or even ourselves.

Who in your life are you most responsible for right now?

Let’s be real Mighties, we can’t always keep up with every single one of our responsibilities 24/7. It’s just so exhausting! And not possible! We’re human! (No shame at all, we definitely understand.)

What responsibility would you say you are — purposefully or not — avoiding at the moment?

Finish today’s #52SmallThings prompt below.

Keeping up with our daily responsibilities isn’t always easy. Some days come with a load of responsibilities, while others are a bit lighter and leave more room for rest and fun. (And balancing our health needs and energy levels along with those responsibilities may also be an added task all on its own!)

What daily responsibility do you find to be most challenging? Which is the easiest?

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks says that her most challenging responsibility is balancing her finances while her easiest is making sure she's getting her work done every day.

Nothing says "welcome to being an adult" more than the stockpile of ✨responsibilities✨ that come with it.

These responsibilities can look like managing your health and household, taking care of family and pets, or even maintaining different relationships or roles in your life. Depending on your personal circumstances, maintaining and keep up with those responsibilities may look different for each of us.

In general, would you consider yourself a responsible person? Or is it something you’re actively working toward? (No judgment if there’s room for growth!)
