Thanks for sharing Daria! It is amazing the list of ideals we hold in our head about ourselves. We would NEVER expect anyone else to be that perfect, yet we constantly shame ourselves for not measuring up. Love the quote too!

I should be thinner. I should eat healthy. I should exercise daily. I should journal daily. I should…Believe me, the list was really long. Then I had this “a-ha” moment, similar to yours, that there is NO WAY an actual human could do this. A short while later I read a quote from Gretchen Rubin “Accept yourself and expect more from yourself.” This helped me realize that while I can always strive to improve, I do need to accept who I am at my core-and celebrate that. Great post Sara!

I know–it hasn’t worked so far. And if one can act “perfect” all the time–that’s probably not even a good thing! Thanks for reading.

I think I am so far away from my “perfect self” that I couldn’t even describe her as you did!!
