The world beats up on us, pretty consistently. We join the party by beating up on ourselves. We are hard on ourselves about the things we do, and those we don’t. We get anxious about our work, the choices we make on a daily basis, and even about how we look in the mirror.
I think we should learn to be kind to ourselves. I think it’s ok to pat ourselves on the back for a job well done. And to keep it real by not sweating the small stuff. As a wise soul said: “How you treat yourself, is how you are inviting the world to treat you”.
