I've been fighting a war lately.
And, at first, I was winning a lot of small battles.
Then I started to get tired, and began looking around me and noticed all of the other battles (some looking pretty big 'n bad!) waiting in the wings, yet to be fought.
And I began to feel defeated before I had even really begun.
I struggle with PERFECTIONISIM.
To the point of allowing myself to believe the old nonsense of "If you can't do it right, don't do it at all!"
(Other than brain surgery, where does this really apply in life, right?!)
So, this week I'm working- HARD!- on remembering this:
It doesn't have to be done perfectly- it just has to be done.
Don't wait to do it until you have the "time" to do it "right"-
just do it!
(~Inspired by FLY Lady)
I'm hoping I'll see my thinking begin to change, and that it will start to show in our home.
I'll be back- one of these days- with a progress report (and, eventually, Regan's birthday and birth story post- sigh, what a bad mother!!!)!
