Make a list at the end of the day of all the things you accomplished.

Include simple everyday activities:
I got out of bed.
I brushed my teeth.
I made the bed.
I made it to work, got the children ready for school, ate lunch.
I finished the project at work.
I made the important phone call.
I made a decision on the memorial tablet.

All of these are significant accomplishments when you are grieving and it is hard to garner the energy to do much.

Keep it simple and watch it grow.
