Wow thank you for all that… extremely helpful. Just printed out your suggestions and will be putting them into practice immediately.
So, Adam here is a really tough question: do you love and respect yourself enough?
You hit the nail on the head… that is the root of the problem. Reading your suggestions I’m realizing that I actually do get a lot done, and I have achieved and do achieve a lot, but have trouble giving myself credit for what I accomplish, because there’s always more I could have done or someone else that does it better… an unwinnable game. I want to set up the game of life so that I can win but I also don’t want to get complacent, be mediocre, or lower my standards. So it’s kind of a dance between pushing myself to be better and at the same time making my goals achievable… and then acknowledging when I do succeed at reaching my goals.
So I think clearing up my values and incongruities plus kindly training my UM is going to be a huge shift. Thanks again.
