Did you know that I can't please everyone? Or do everything? Go figure.
My counselor's been saying "You have to be happy with who you are."
I thought it meant that I shouldn't want to be better, but what it really means is that I have to understand and accept my current limits.
Looking back, I see a pattern of expecting myself to always act and feel as if I was much more perfect than I was. To accept tasks based on what I should be able to do rather than what I could do. To fear ruffling feathers because I might not handle it perfectly.
So, I have cut myself a huge piece of slack. Meet the flawed Jeff.
