Challenge Day 185 Year 6 Ami hadn’t taken up hacking to score free ship passage and hotel stays. But she felt it was a nice perk.

What is your Open Agenda?      For the very first Open Agenda Challenge, I want to start with something  easy that I think we could all use a little more of: spreading kindness. But most importantly, being kind to yourself. This year has been a mental challenge for a lot of us, especially those already dealing with mental health complications. So let’s spread some self-respect, love, and kindness!

Why should people work with you on your Open Agenda?      1) This year has been especially brutal to everyone and sometimes it’s easy to feel down on yourself or drop into a low spot as a result.      2) You are worth so much more than the negative thoughts tell you! It’s super duper important to counterbalance the hurtful thoughts with positive ones. The negative thoughts are lying anyway!      3) Being kind to yourself isn’t always easy, but I want this to be a good reminder for all of us to try shifting our mental pattern from seeing only the dark places to actively making the choice to seek out opportunities.      4) I want to continue the work of so many amazing people before me in spreading both self-awareness and mental health awareness as someone who has struggled with mental health issues for most of my life and have slowly figured out some of the secrets to breaking that cycle.
