When we put everything we’ve got into something and it doesn’t work out, getting angry with ourselves doesn’t improve the situation or make us feel better. Actually, everything we do is tainted as long as we maintain that vibration. Accepting ourselves in spite of our human fallibility is self-loving. Plus, it helps us work more productively because we aren’t distracted by an unrealistic pressure to be perfect. We get better results when we treat ourselves the way a caring parent treats a child who made a mistake…

With love and understanding.
