Quotes To Live By - 4 Revisited
Message To Self - Give Yourself A Break From Self Judgement
Quote #4 is good for any day but is particularly apt again for me today.
I'm feeling a bit under the weather with a throat like sandpaper and not able to do as much as I'd like. So I practised accepting that that is how it is right now and stopped myself from passing judgement on all the things I wasn't doing.
Then I got an opportunity to chat to someone about the finance side of Steem Monsters, something I struggle with.
As is often the case with such things I'd got my wires crossed but I was shown extreme patience. So it was another opportunity to be kind to myself too and accept that I was doing my best and that's all I can do.
I've taken some notes and am thinking about taking them to the beach to ponder over but I don't think I've got the energy to get changed and put on my suntan lotion. 😂
Maybe I'll just go back to bed for a nap . . .
I've been struggling a bit lately, trying to make a couple of decisions that kept me going round and round in circles. This was then exacerbated by my lack of patience with myself about it. I've spent too much time beating myself up so it's not surprising I've now picked up this cold.
I think today is just going to have to be one of those "just put one step in front of the other type of days".
And, a bit like this rose, I seem to be rambling on so I'll leave it there.
Wishing you all a fun and kind to yourself sort of day! 💙

I love that quote
Aw, you are under the weather, aren't you? Hope you feel better soon 😍
Thanks Shani. I took it easy for most of the day although I couldn't resist going for a walk along the seafront this afternoon. It was such a beautiful day. Just about wiped me out now and I'm happy to be able to put my feet up and get an early night. 💙
The roses are beautiful and I am sorry you are feeling under the weather. Whatever it is that is under your bonnet, just release it and let it go for a bit- then come back and revisit at another time, unless it is time-sensitive.
Get some naps and a cuppa and go back to sleep, sleep, sleep

Yeah. It was time sensitive. That's why I was feeling the pressure. Today is really the last day to say "yes" to it and I felt a little bit of conflict first thing but I've let it go now. In fact, I let it go yesterday which felt really good.
Partly because I've now got this nasty cold so my energy is low which is my bodies way of trying to stop all that thinking I suppose. 😊
The other decisions are still on the table but I'm letting them go for now too. Hopefully, when I come out the other side of this cold and I'm back to full energy it will be clearer then revisited.
But for now, as you say, it's rest, rest, rest.
Thank you for the tip! 💙
