Share your successes during NC

There is a popular thread for sharing our struggles with NC, but I thought it might be helpful to have a thread sharing our successes. It’s important to see the good and positive in our lives, even when we are going through tough times.

Share anything positive that has happened in your life during NC. Made it through another day? Passed an exam? Tried something new? Picked up an old hobby? Anything that you see as positive or as a success post it here!

Today I got out of the house and exercised. I moved my body and enjoyed the sunshine. I didn’t think about things or let myself get upset. :slight_smile:

Well, i did change my style during nc. I bought new clothes, new spec and put some make up whenever i go out. Go to spa and having serious diet. Before this i dont even care about style and health and skin but now i do. And everyone around me gave me a very good respond and compliment. It makes me more confident to improve myself to be better and have better life rather than sitting home and crying about my ex bf. Sometimes i cried but i try to focus on my happiness during my nc too. And is a good start :slight_smile:

I’m no longer depressed about my grandpas passing, I’m at peace with it now. I know he isn’t in pain and I know he’s happy to be back with my grandma. In honor of it, I would to get a remembrance tattoo for the both of them. Now, I want to focus on me some more, losing some weight, and getting a very needed trim on my hair. I feel more confident than I have the past couple months, and I do feel confident that my hard work on trying to get my ex will show soon. I was a complete mess months ago, but I’ve got myself together now

I went to a movie today (alone, gasp). I had a pretty good time. I didn’t have to share my candy, haha.

During my various NC periods, I learned how to play chess, I started working out more, and I really started focusing on my long term career goals. :slight_smile: I have gained new perspective on what I want in my future in terms of family and work.

Bought some new clothes and started focusing on my career. When my ex broke up my workout plummeted a bit so I am picking that up again. I am not consistent yet as I do things better when I feel better but my routine is coming back to normal again, slowly. I go out a lot and meet a lot of new people almost everyday. Trying to enjoy the little things in life.
