Most of us naturally want others to like our ideas. We want to be justified and given a pat on the back for how smart we are. We want to be accepted. But are you willing to change who you are, what you want and modify your great ideas for that approval? If so, your life will be small and unfullfilling.
Confidence – Not so Tough
Confidence is a basic need we all have to feel good about ourselves. It’s not about feeling superior or invincible. It’s simply, and with difficulty, about owning who we are, being comfortable in the knowledge that we all have strengthhs and challenges, taking our best foot and putting it forward every day in every way.
Who Comes First; Hubby or Kids?
When we live our lives with others coming first and foremost, all of our expectations for ourselves become part of our expectations for them. If we aren’t living up to them, how can we expect others to?
Baby, Baby
Being a mom is damn hard! That’s why I want all you mom’s out there to take care of yourself. Not becasue I don’t think that having kids is important, but because it is so important! Just taking care of myself gets exhausting. Taking care of a young life is not only exhausting but critical!
Coach Bieste and I
Bieste is a good friend, a supportive mentor and a real person. I love her because I get her. I may not be a beefy woman in a man’s profession, but I still get the feelings of being unattractive and unwanted by the opposite sex. When I had my first boyfriend at 19 I made a very bad choice and almost married that bad choice as I thought I would never find anything better. Thank goodness I came to enough of my senses to know even if I didn’t find anyone else, I would be less miserable than I would be with him.
