Met with my sister in the morning and had a meeting to make plans about making progress with our lives and in particular with helping our parents. I explained conditions of enoughness to her and we shared a few and documented them. We will meet Wednesday while my folks are out of the house to do start removing stuff: Dad wants to have the house

What do you mean by "enoughness"?

[elainegrey]

It's a term i learned from Jennifer Louden's "Satisfaction Finder" (which i bought in 2011, oh my). It's a slight variation on goal setting for one's personal life

That sounds very wise. I'm now wondering f if I could start doing something similar. So you reccomend that book?

[elainegrey]

The Satisfaction Finder program costs $40+ and.... eh, if procrastination is a significant issue for you ... maybe? You might want to read some of her website https://jenniferlouden.com/conditions-of-enoughness/ and see if her tone suits. I was at a particularly hard point when i found it and it was worth it then. I am still working with similar concepts now and it's probably more a issue of putting the energy into making changes (thinking about what i _want_ instead of feeling driven by what i _should_, etc) than reading more books. 8)

I was also able to find her "The Life Organizer : A Woman's Guide to a Mindful Year" in eBooks available via my library; you might find resources in a less expensive format.

Thanks for the tip. I'll look into it online before going any further with it. I haven't used a library in years. It should be interesting to check in online.
