My good friend Biddie got tagged with this meme and has asked me to try it myself, so here goes:
The challenge in this meme is to list 25 things I NEED and 5 things I WANT (only FIVE!??). Let's see how hard this is... LOL!
NEEDS
1. I need more stability in my life.
2. I need more sleep.
3. I need more energy.
4. I need to get back to my writing.
5. I need to get outside more.
6. I need to exercise more.
7. I need to finish what I start more.
8. I need to be more careful with my finances.
9. I need to get out more with my friends.
10. I need to let go of past mistakes.
11. I need to be more forgiving of others.
12. I need to dwell on the positive more.
13. I need to be more proactive.
14. I need to control my temper better.
15. I need to take it easier on myself.
16. I need to stop procrastinating so much.
17. I need to spend more time with my family.
18. I need to be more patient.
19. I need to renew my faith.
20. I need to feel accepted.
21. I need support, and to accept that support when offered.
22. I need to continue to support those that need it.
23. I need to continue getting hugs from my girls.
24. I need to let my girls know I love them more.
25. I need to get my health back.
WANTS
1. I want to win the lottery... BIG!
2. I want a new car.
3. I want my employer to recognize my efforts and stop making unnecessary threats.
4. I want to go on a nice long vacation.
5. I want to retire early and not have to worry about money.
Well, that was actually harder than I thought! I got stuck for a while about halfway through the needs section. It was hard to separate the needs from the wants. So often we blur the line between what we actually need, and what we would like to have. I hope this has given you some insight into my mind, and inspires you to try it yourself.

Your #3 WANT is more like a need, I think. Shawn needs that one, too.
That was a great list. After reading yours I realized that I could have done another 25 needs and the wants list? It could go on forever!
Thanks for doing this :)
good list phoenix. I think most peoples needs are somewhat similar if they think about them deeply.
yesssssssss an awesome list...you are so very wise!!!
Thanks for sharing...I think I will give it a go too...but not til my brain stops hurting..lmao.
What a great list, Phoenix. You could print it out and pick one or two things to work on. In fact some of them go together.
If you do 2 you will get 3.
You could do 5 and 6 together and it will help with 25.
If you do 16 you will get 7.
17, 23, 24 go together nicely.
Working on your list a little at a time and being 13 should give you a great sense of achievement but do it in a 15 kind of way.
I think WANT number 3 is really a NEED.
Thanks for all your kind comments!
Biddie - You know it, and I know it, but why does almost every employer I worked for NOT know it???
Burfica - You're probably quite right.
Flake - Blush! LOL! Here's hoping your brain stops hurting REAL soon!
Babzy - WOW! You really analyzed my list! I'll have to take you up on your suggestions. As for Want #3, see comment to Biddie above...
That looked like a hard one to do, I'm proud of you for making it all the way! Our lists are almost carbon copies of each other!
Hi Phoenix. I am stopping by to wish you a good weekend and also to let you know I'm going to be taking a blogging break. My depression in closing in on me again so must get it under control. Please don't forget me.
Great list! Your needs outweigh your wants...usually its the other way around,,,lol
thanks for sharing!
Mom
Hi Mom! Unfortunately, I could go on forever with wants, but I was only allowed to put up 5... stingy jerks who wrote this!
Hello. It's February already. It's about time you wrote a post.
