PERFECTION:

~

Why do we do this to ourselves? I'm not talking strictly about one
thing; I'm talking about life. Why do we punish ourselves by
thinking that we're not good while believing that others are perfect
– whether in relationships, recovery, or a specific task?

Whether we're judging ourselves or others, it's two sides of the
same coin: Neither expectation is a good one.

It is far more beneficial to tell ourselves that who we are is OK and
what we are doing is good enough. That doesn't mean we won't make
mistakes, that doesn't mean we won't get off track from time to time,
that doesn't mean we can't improve. It means with all our wandering,
we're basically on course. Encouraging and approving of ourselves is
how we help ourselves stay on track.
