Is Doing Your Best Enough? - Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites Podcast

A friend posted this online recently and I loved it so much that I got permission to use it as a Tiny Bite.

Most of us were raised to do right, to get things right, to be agreeable, to be self-sufficient, to work hard, and to be the person our parents wanted us to be. Those are all admirable qualities, until we use them to beat ourselves up when we feel we’ve missed the mark.

Listen up – here’s a list of awards that do not exist, so quit trying to earn them:

  • Most Perfect   
  • Never Said No   
  • Rested the Least   
  • Didn’t Need Help   
  • Worked the Longest           
  • Didn’t Make Any Mistakes   
  • Lived Up to Everyone’s Expectations   

None of those awards exist. Not one of them. Give yourself permission to do the best you can with the tools and conditions you have and be satisfied with the results of your best efforts.

Your best you can do is literally all you can do – quit demanding more of yourself.
