Inspirational – Don’t Give Up
Just take one more step, and one more step. Even slow progress is better than now progress.
Inspirational – Keep Perspective
I fell into the trap as a young man. I worked twenty hour days and spent weeks away from home. I thought I was doing the right thing by providing for my family.
My family would rather have had me there.
If you drop dead your work will replace you.
No one can replace you for your family.
Inspirational – Climbing Out Is Just As Important As Climbing Up
We so often fail to give ourselves and others credit just for getting back to baseline, but that climb is sometimes harder than any other. Climbing up tends to feel like a positive while climbing out feels shameful – but it isn’t.
Inspirational – Don’t Be A Richard
I get grumpy sometimes. People make me angry, and sometimes I just have to bite my tongue and remind myself not to be a Richard. In the end I’m much better for it, and so is the world.
Inspirational – Perfect Isn’t Perfect
I have gotten stuck in this trap in my life. I want everything to be perfect, but when everything has to be perfect you end up stressed, nothing looks right, and you end up living in a pressure cooker and not meeting your goals anyway.
Sometimes you have to just realize that good enough is good enough and move on.
Inspirational – Carrying It
I tend to be quiet. I don’t like being the center of attention and it takes a lot for me to reach out for help, but it is such an important skill to foster.
If you have friends who seem to deal with anything and everything without getting upset, make sure they are actually okay. Sometimes those are the people who are about to shatter from everything on their shoulders.
Inspirational – Be Careful Following The Masses
When I was younger I had a lot of social anxiety and sometimes I went with the flow because it was easier. But sometimes you have to stop and be yourself, no matter how hard that is.
