Hold Yourself To Your Own Standards

We often encourage others to be patient, to set boundaries, and to practice self-care. But behind closed doors, we can at times be our own worst critics, ignoring the very advice we so freely give. It’s a difficult thing, matching your private actions to your public words.

The real strength is in trying, every day, to live the truth you believe in. Forgive yourself when you fall short and gently try again. Be kind to yourself, too. It all counts.
