To ask you to tell me about your biggest personal achievement?

[VodkaAndDietCokePlease]

I'm 30 years old, and I done the usual school/college/uni/married/kids.

I'm very happy with my family life, lovely DH and just bought our first house which is great

But I don't feel like I've achieved much in my personal life, nothing that I can be really proud of! I'd love to look back on my life when I'm older and feel like I achieved lots of different things, but I don't really come from a family who 'does' stuff so I never really have 🤷‍♀️

Please tell me about your biggest accomplishments and give me some inspiration!

My daughter. She’s the best thing I’ve ever created she’s an intelligent articulate, kind, loving successful human and simply being her parent is my biggest achievement in life, although who she is, is all her, I can’t take credit for that.

I guess I’ve also been successful work wise, but this was more down to hard work and the right opportunities.

I’ve also been with my husband for thirty one years, since I was twenty and that I think is an achievement as I came from a very dysfunctional back ground.

Probably not what you were expecting on MN, but mine was getting rid of a pesky 27 year addiction to herion/methadone.

What's herion Heroin even.

I’m older than you and have lived well I think but no dramatic achievements. I’m at peace with the fact that there will be no blue plaque on Matilda Towers after I’m gone.

CockCarousel That's an amazing achievement well done you.

My dc and staying alive

I’ve raised 2 kids to adulthood, and they’re both hard working, well balanced, mannerable and assertive individuals.
I’ll Take that!

Leaving an unhappy marriage and finding my now dh.I was scared of the unknown and living on my own but I did it.

I completed a Tough Mudder.

Never doing it again mind.

Surviving an abusive childhood. Surviving a nasty chronic illness. Surviving xh leaving (the hardest). Parenting well after all that and still smiling!
