Life is not perfect. It never will be...
Stop thinking that your life should be perfect and accept that this will never be the case.
You should just allow your life to reflect who you are and if it doesn't then take small steps, (or large ones if you have the courage!), to change it so it does.
Life is not perfect. Neither are you...
Stop punishing or criticising yourself for not being perfect for none of us are.
I wish you a great day and hope that you will see the sense and hope that lies in freeing yourself of the stress that comes with chasing a perfect life. That perfect life doesn't exist.
Try and accept that you can change your reality but if you chase perfection you are chasing a false dream.
I hope that this message helps you today and I'd love your comments on how tis message relates to your life, please leave a commen below

Confront your Fear...
Last week I confronted an old enemy we all face...
FEAR
I love adventurous sports and this winter I have been snowboarding six times. It is a bit scary. I can now, after three years, snowboard quite well but realized one thing is stopping me from progressing and that is my fear.
Last time out I fell a couple of times just trying to slow myself down. This week I pushed myself because I thought:
"Do I want to do this or not? Do I want to advance or stay the same level? "
I decided that if I do something I should push myself a bit each time and improve a little each time I go out.
I went for it and as my speed increased I pushed through the barrier of fear just a bit. OK, I took it in steps and didn't go crazy but I pushed myself.
Life is the same. We need to confront fear and push ourselves through more challenging and uncomfortable events. Ask yourself this:
"Am I going to do this with all my effort and push myself to do my best or am I going to half-do this?"
Personally, I think that half doing something is pointless. Either I push myself to do the best I can or I should forget it and not bother.
Remember, the world needs and wants you to do your best so push yourself and succeed!

Perfectionism
Last week I sent out a message to my subscribers all about perfectionism. I said the following:
"Do you constantly tell yourself you could have done this better or said that better?"
"Do you spend time worrying how others will respond to you?"
"And when you have a bad day do you go over and over what happened and wish that you had done things differently?"
I got quite a few replies saying there is nothing wrong with trying to improve and of course there isn't. Improvement is progress and looking at how you can have done things better is a good idea if you want to learn from the problems and challenges of life. However, the problem of perfectionism is that you want to improve and even when you do you drive yourself harder.
Perfectionism is a problem that never goes away because you can never be perfect.
Seeking perfectionism is the road to unhappiness and you need to accept that you are not perfect. No one on this planet is. Be happy to do your best and yes learn from it. Try your best always and take setbacks as opportunities to learn and improve yourself. Don't use setbacks to kick yourself and don't be discouraged because setbacks are a natural part of self growth.
