A friend of mine used that theory with me one day. I think I posted something about my work towards my goals and she said "progression not perfection right?" This is so true!
We are not perfect, we are not going to be perfect, we are not MEANT to be perfect! We are meant to progress. We strive to much for perfection and that leads to disappointment and other negative feelings. We spend too much time comparing ourselves to others.
If we spent more time progressing, and only comparing ourselves to who we were yesterday, we could be a lot happier! It is important that we love ourselves as we are, but see ourselves as we can be. We might not weigh what we want to weigh, or be as good at a sport or something that we want to be. Who cares! Love yourself!!!! accept yourself!!!! THEN make a plan to improve the things you want to improve. be a better you today than you were yesterday. If you have a bad day- so be it. If you mess up, no problem!!! just start again in that next MOMENT, not next week, not Monday, not after the holidays.... Start the very next second. it will be ok!
What happens if you get to the weight you want to be? will you be happy? will you find something else to hate about yourself? It will all depend on if you have learned to love yourself for who you are TODAY! That is the key to happiness. LOVE YOURSELF!
Progression- not perfection, love yourself for who you are TODAY!
Until I blog again......
