- Needing to have it all “figured out.” Embrace the reality of not having all the answers.
- Dwelling on what could have been. Focus on the opportunities and paths in front of you.
- Trying to please everyone. What’s most important is that you’re happy with yourself.
- Being overly self-critical. Acknowledge your mistakes with a compassionate perspective.
- Trying to avoid mistakes. Failure is a natural part of learning, growth and success.
- Holding grudges. They hinder your happiness.

My favourite line is “Failure is a natural part of learning, growth and success.” I also like “Acknowledge your mistakes with a compassionate perspective.” Personally, I’ve been beating myself up for not being further ahead financially, in career, and in lifestyle. I just thought I’d have more “success” and financial freedom at this point. However, I was also road kill during the 2008 financial crisis, which profoundly set me back. I’ve also been willing to take a LOT of calculated risks in pursuit of the ultimate entrepreneurial endeavour. And for that, I’ll give myself a big credit. I don’t give up! And I’m keeping my dream and vision of the perfect life close to my heart and soul. Wish me luck! Just sayin’ : ) Hugs and good luck. XO
Blessings,
