Today’s not my day… I am just feeling bad, not enough… My office is a mess, laundry needs to be done. my garage is a danger zone, clients need to be called, my website needs updating, little man A. had a bad day at school, I am feeling like a bad mom … Really I could go on. My list of upsets are not nearly complete. The life coach in me knows better but I am still suffering over it. For crying out loud I am a master trainer for Tony Robbins and I know I should just let it all go, but I am in pretty deep today. Writing this post is hard because I really do not want anyone to know that I do not have it all together.
Who am I kidding? I am not really hiding anything. I am sure my neighbors and friends could tell you all of my faults. I am sitting here in my office again past 11:00 pm wondering How do I have it all? How do I do all that I want to do, do it well and be the kind of mom I am committed to being? I am not sure why I am even writing this post other than I sat down to blog and this is what is coming out. OK. Maybe writting it and reading it back to myself is making me feel better.
What do you do when you do not feel enough? What do you do when you are feeling inadequate? I will tell you something the first thing I do is cry. And I have been doing that on and off all afternoon. Next, I write about it or journal (hence this post) and then I get around to doing something to feel better. Here are my goto strategies, a bath (yes I am one of those women that likes to soak) call a friend, take a walk, read a book, zone out in front of the TV and then I finally just get over it! I know I need to wake up in the morning do my morning ritual and all will be well. I will probably look at my blog in the morning and say “what was I thinking?!”
This post is to all the women out there that are afraid they are not doing the right thing, feel overwhelmed at times and just not enough. I hear you. You are a beautiful, extraordinary women who doesn’t need to do anything other than just be you. I promise to go to bed focusing on that!
Thanks for listening today… I promise I will be better tomorrow!
Please leave a comment on the blog today, What do you do if you ever feel not enough? What do you do to feel better? What do you say to yourself or focus on that makes it all go away?
P.S. A nice glass of red wine and giggles with girlfriends would make me feel better. I wonder if my neighbor is still up. She is always up for a glass…
