Tashaaaaaa!! I love your name because it's so easy to say in an excited way and I'm always excited to see your pretty face in my sub box and in my life in general. Perfect is weird because it's totally unattainable? Because there's always SOMETHING that could be improved. You could reach a point that the 'you' from five years ago would deem as brilliant and perfect, but the current you has hopes of how things could be better. You'll never reach perfect because nobody ever will. You're totally right when you say that the focus should be happy and not perfect. And I think a huge part of being happy is not giving a shit that things aren't perfect. Strive to be the best you possible, of course, but the best you is a happy you
Aren't you a little cutie? Even though my name is technically NAtasha so its a lil' longer ;) Yeah, I know, my subconscious just says if it can be improved but I can't do it that means I am not good enough but I guess that's probably how a lot of people feel? Although I am generalising. It's funny you should say that because I do think that is true. Past me would love current me! I only really realised that perfection vs happiness was the issue when I was being a bit more rational than sad haha :) Nicely said! And yaaaaay indeeed! xx
Oh you really Are too much like me haha i did that all the time🙈 Meditation app Sounds good but for me it's worse when I've got plenty of Time to think about everything.. my (kind of) advice would be to just do stuff, get busy And think less about what you think others want you to be/ who you want to be/ wheater or not whatever you do suits the Person that you would like to be---> instead just BE👍🏻 And let the actions you take speak for you:) In my opinion you cant really decide WHO you Are Because you Are already you, if you get my thought, so where'S the Point in pondering about who you wanna be? (Not that thinking about goals And striving for improvement is wrong!!! Only the OVERthinking isnt too good) CONCLUSION: you Are probably a much better Person than you could ever invent so what can gibt wrong?!🤗
Hahaha! It's interesting to see when you think you are alone in something that others do it too! Time to think can be dangerous but I am trying to use it in the mindful way where you focus on the moment. Just 'be' is actually very good advice. Indeed, overthinking is the worst haha! Thank you!
You remind me of my younger self. It was always tomorrow or in a few years or someday. I finally figured out that it wasn't going to be tomorrow. So I started looking at yesterday and some where along the way I woke up and realised that NOW is all there is. Live in the now, even if it isn't exactly what you want; forget yesterday and tomorrow. As for perfect; by whose definition are you trying to have perfect? The neighbors, school chums, or other assorted folks outside of yourself? Those definitions are unimportant. Look for "perfect for you" which will lead to happiness. Doing what makes you happy (as long as it's not hurtful to you or others) leads to "perfect for you" Now that I've rambled...did any of that make sense? LOL. 😊
That's such a great way to think and something I definitely want to take on board. This is it haha, I don't know what definition or standard of perfect I am hoping to be! This is why I am hoping that my happiness will equal my own perfect rather than perfect equalling happiness? Yes it did, thank you! :D
Happy is infinitely more important that perfect. Perfection is an illusion. Oh and I just need to say this: you are amazingly pretty! (not being a creep, just stating a fact.)
Well said! It sounds really obvious but I guess it was just something under the surface that I never really tackled. Ahaha! I wouldn't say it's a fact haha but thank you, that's nice of you to say :)
Well it's a fact to me. ;) But yes, I see this so much in the american mentality. This striving for perfection and they forget to live. Happiness is something no money can buy but you can have it even without money. Much more worth striving for I think :)

Well said my friend.
