Giving my self credit is hard because it seem to be a form of bragging and I was taught to never brag as a child. Giving myself credit for most things is challenging especially when these are things I know I should be doing in the first place. Like exercising every day or not having the extra ****** .
Because I tend to be a perfectionist I dwell more on what I did wrong rather than what I did right! Oh ,so much for this perfectionist to work on! LOL
We need to focus on the things we do right instead of beating ourselves up over things we did wrong.
I read that Gratitude can help people with depression. Studies have shown that people who focus on gratitude are helped within weeks... if they write down 5 things they are truly grateful for. I will give my self credit for 5 things no matter how small or insignifiacant I feel it is
I will continue to find reasons to credit myself to enforce the positive changes I am making.
