Perfectionism In Parenting & Beyond
A friend told me today that she felt she wasn’t a good mother.
I said, “Compared to who? I think you’re a great mom.”
To which she said, “Compared to the woman I want to be in my head.”
We want so much to be the best we can, but we need remember that comparing ourselves to our perfect selves is not inspiration but degredation.
Allow yourself to recognize what your best is for today, which by the way, could be even better tomorrow.
