It is so important to remember that in any area of life we are never going to achieve perfection.
I am NEVER going to be a perfect mom.
I am NEVER going to be perfect at working out.
I am NEVER going to eat perfectly all the time.
I am NEVER going to be a perfect wife.
I am NEVER going to be perfect at my job.
I see so many people striving for perfection and then beat themselves up because they have failed. Well, you will always fail when your goal is perfection.
It is okay to not be perfect or not do something perfectly.
What is the purpose in an unattainable goal? Why wear yourself out in a never-ending search striving for something that is impossible? You are only setting yourself up for failure, heartbreak, and self defeat.
Our goal should be progress, excellence, achievement. Our goal should be self love and personal development. Our goal should be anything but perfect.
