When is it good enough?
When can I stop trying? When can I just relax without worrying about everything I still need to do, about everything that I've done before? When will I accept that I should not always "need to do my best"? Will there be a time when I can "just be me", and to be OK with it? 🤔
I know, I'm the one holding myself back. I'm the one putting on ridiculous high expectations. I'm the one always feeling like I need to do my best. It's practically my standard response to folks. "Thanks, I'll do my best." But then, when I can't seem to manage to achieve, when I can't seem to reach the high set goals I put on myself, I get disappointed. I get angry with myself, because obviously I'm not good enough and I've not tried my best at all.
