Thank you!!! We are getting there aren't we! Just like the tortoise.
This is the first block in my Freedom quilt. I still have many more to go before I put them all together and finish my quilt. Just like the program here it can be done one small step at a time. When you take your time and build a solid frame work starting with one small square at a time, than one block at a time, and you go to put it all together, you know you have built something strong and beautiful that will last a lifetime. My partner told me if you break a problem down into steps and take your time, it is much easier to work on. I really couldn't understand this concept until I started working the program here on the site. Than after taking my time and working the program here it all started to click and I began to make real progress.
I too have seen all the progress you and many others here in the group have made and you too should be very proud of yourself. I am inspired to move forward when I read all of your posts here on the site. Thank you for posting it helps us all when you do.
This is an awesome post. Thanks for reminding me that the tortoise method works - I too started out as a hare and have gone back to take it slowly one step at a time. Your quilt is beautiful - congratulations! You deserve to be so proud of yourself.
I want to thank you and all of the educators for the complements. It does feel good hearing you say it. I also want to thank you all for your support, advice, and for showing me the way to a happier and healthier life. I too am very happy about all the success I have had with the program here. I too am very proud of all I have been able to achieve so far. I am really excited about my new found freedom. I am looking forward to life now, with lots of enthusiasm and plan on pushing forward one day at a time, one small step and one block at a time.
Today I put up a new avatar here on the site. It is a picture of my first quilt block. This block represents freedom to me. When I first started this program 8 months ago I had never heard about CBT. At first I tried to rush through the program thinking if I hurried up and did the work I would get better faster. After a while I realized that in order to have this program work for me I had to slow down and take my time with it. Like the Tortoise and the Hare story. I am the Tortoise and I am winning the race. I learned to let myself relax and let it sink in, than working the program started to make sense and doing the work became much easier.. It took a lot of time and many steps for me to be able to get to where I am able to leave my house and take a class and make this first quilt block. So that is why I am naming this my freedom quilt. I am getting my Freedom back because I took my time working the program. There are many steps involved in getting your freedom back just like there are many step involved in making a quilt. Your have to do it one step, and one block at a time in order to finish the race and come across the finish line a winner.
Everyone can win! Everyone can do this program! "One small step at a time".
