I wasn’t happy here in this pic! I didn’t think it would be good enough!! Turns out…it wasn’t!!! 🤷♂️ Yet, it was my best at the time and I should have been happy about that! I’m going to show what I believe to be true strength here in admitting my flaws.
The mental game of competing can be a slippery slope! It seems often times the point is lost in the desire to win! I’m admittedly at fault for that! I push myself very hard. Although I normally choose to speak words of kindness to others; my inner voice is NOT kind to me. I will push myself to the brink of death if I feel compelled to do so. I realize that this is a shortcoming of mine, NOT a strength. Realization of my faults enables me to make the corrections that are needed. I’m always looking to improve, and this needs to include my mindset for everything else to be in sync.
If this strikes a chord with anyone or if anyone else can relate please feel to give your $.02 in the comments! I did not post this pic to be vain in any way! The guy in this pic (ME) was literally riddled with insecurity and negativity at the time! I regret it! I want to help others by offering kindness and empathy for whatever it is that you’re struggling with. It’s too often we’re too proud to admit our erroneous ways or to ask for help; or at least I can speak for myself here when saying that!
I welcome ANYONE to message me if you feel you might need someone to talk to and empathize for your situation without judging you negatively! I’ll be here to listen. 🤜 🤛
“And when it seems like the pressure gets to be too much
I take time out and pray, and ask that you be my crutch.
Lord, I am not perfect by a long shot; I confess to you daily
But I work harder everyday, and I hope that you hear me.
In my heart I mean well, but if you’ll help me to grow
Then what I have in my heart will begin to show.”
With kind regards and best wishes to all,
