This morning I was telling my coach that many times when I put myself out there in my life and business, I immediately feel like hiding. So interesting. My brain tells me that there’s something wrong with me. Shame.
She shared this acronym for shame with me. It’s funny how we think that we’re supposed to have mastered everything by now. Like something has gone wrong when we make mistakes, or make ourselves known. What would be different if we just decided to think of everything uncomfortable as an experiment?
A module in a lesson?
Information for next time…with no meaning attached?
I’m going to print this and read it every time I start talking smack to myself. I will always be a work in progress. I will never master everything and I’m not supposed to. Overcoming perfectionism is a journey. And I’m all in!
