Meeting the challenge

Treasures In The Garden

Success is not something to wait for.......

 

Wherever the future may lead us

May we always have the wisdom and strength

to follow our dreams....

the courage and ambition

to meet our new challenges....

and may we know the the happiness and pride

that comes with success.

.......but it is something to work hard for.

My word for today is "WORKING!"

 

 

Painful Perfection

From my garden

How do I get free?

To escape being a slave to perfectionism

 you need to understand and challenge 

the underlying beliefs  that drive us 

to get "things right".

Perfectionists think that their beliefs

are indeed,FACTS

For an example:

"If I make a mistake

it will be catastrophic."

Get into the habit of challenging 

these thoughts with a reality check.

Take note of when you make a mistake-

or something was not quite right.......

Did your feared outcome come to fruition? 

Replace this kind of thinking of being "perfect"

with the realistic thought "I will do my best".

This can be frightening at first.

But make a start on setting realistic standards.

Remember: they are there to help you to do your best.

This way you won't lose the things that mean the most to you-

relationships, leisure time, good health.

Good luck! It will take practice. Eventually things will improve.

touching Lives

Treasures In The Garden

 

Finding the goodness in all people we meet in our daily living.......

 

We don't

meet people 

just by accident. 

They are meant to 

touch our lives

for some specific reason.

may be a challenge that can add dimension to our own lives.

My word for today is "CHALLENGE!"

Making life more than existence

Life is an opportunity

Life is beauty,

Life is a dream,
