We all have our moments -- good and bad. There are days that just won't quite come together. Plans run aground and try as you might, your interactions just don't feel right. We make mistakes and we falter. We are human and must allow for that.
So when these things happen, it is important to be alright with them. Relax and cut yourself some slack. Stressing and beating yourself up will only make you feel worse. Why do that? Also, it is nice to seek comfort in a wonderful loved one. Avoid the tendencies to hole up and shut everything out. Close, trusted interaction is good medicine. Take some time to rest and recover from your mistakes or your day. We can only run at full speed for so long. When something goes wrong, you can't just keep going. You need to stop, take it slow and allow yourself to regenerate. Trying to just work through will leave you more ragged and frustrated. Rest and know that it is time well spent. We are resilient -- we just need time.
Once you have recovered and feel better about things, get back out there! It can be daunting to step right back into a situation after things don't go well. But you must take things on again. Don't feel intimidated. Come back to your routines with confidence and and a lesson learned. Know that you are capable and that you have taken time to allow you to move on. We must never let our faltering moments scare us into a corner, where we avoid interactions and taking chances. You have more abilities and knowledge than you think -- don't let the world out there keep you from exploring.
Our faults and weaknesses are only opportunities to learn and grow.
