Forgive Yourself

If I would've known then what I know now…Well Tiff, you didn't, and guess what? You survived! And even if you did know then what you know now, you still would've made many other life changing mistakes! Are you a perfectionist?…I can sit up here and blame it on my great great grandfather. My family told me that he was a very stern perfectionist. If it is in my DNA, I have the power to change it. I still talk to myself sternly, but now only in the moment, and when needed. I no longer wallow about what I did or did not do last month, last year, or 5 years ago!

Note to self: Stop feeling guilty about decisions you made in the past. You made those decisions based on where you were, and at that specific time in your life, you felt that it was right. Address, Assess, and Move On.
