Forgiveness.

Forgiveness.

Compassion.

Grace.

As a high performer, these are the 3 most difficult things to give myself.

At least they used to be. 

I spent a lot of time berating myself for not being better. Not knowing better. Not being where someone else was. My impossible standards I felt were fine to have with myself and for a time these standards helped me achieve a lot. But when I saw these standards negatively impacting my relationships, I knew something had to change. 

It took a lot of deep inner work to screw up and still love myself.

Forgiveness is now something I give myself regularly.

Compassion is something I pray for daily.

And grace is something I bask in.

I’ve seen how learning to give myself these things has made me a better person, a better wife and mom, and allowed me to enjoy life on a deeper level. 

Because success isn’t really so great if you don’t actually enjoy it. 

Tips to help you:

  1. Become aware of the inner dialogue. 

  2. Speak to yourself like you would a best friend or young child.

  3. Breath. You’ll get there at exactly the right time.
