You ARE

Good Enough

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished about a year ago 1 min read

“I realize

that

I don’t have to be perfect,

all I have to do

is

show up and enjoy

the messy,

imperfect,

and beautiful

journey of life”

The one thing

we must never do

is compare ourselves

to others.

We live in a society

which ‘expects’ everyone

to be perfect

and this can put

an unconscious pressure

on us.

This causes stress and anxiety,

both of which

are not good

for our Mental Health.

Also,

by trying to be perfect

in ‘one thing’,

we can miss out

on so many

opportunities.

Why not

just ‘give it a go’

and not worry

about anything being ‘perfect’.

Have the Confidence in Yourself

that you can do something,

that you will enjoy ‘it’

and that ‘it’ll be good enough’.

All of this

will build up that Resilience within you

and within your mind.

And

just Enjoy the Experience.

Never fear

what someone else thinks.

Never fear

their judgement.

Accept YOU For Who YOU Are!

As the quote says:

“show up and enjoy —

the beautiful journey of life”.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
