You cannot be a self-hating person and expect to build a loving, healthy life.

You must decide what is enough.
You will never be at peace in your life unless you decide what is enough.
Jonathan Borba
So do it.Draw a line in the sand.
And you cannot kindly everyone.
Nothing will satiate your need to feel better because your emptiness is open-ended.
Its a bottomless well.
The incredible thing about deciding what is enough for you is that it directly counteracts perfectionism.
The question is not: what is the most ideal thing I can fathom here?
When you are thinking of what your dream life would be, you are always going to fall short.
This is actually not the foundation on which you might go about building a happy, peaceful existence.
Instead, you have to decide what is enough for you to feel okay.
When you do this, you begin to realize how very little you need.
No longer are you trying to fit and meet everyones expectations.
When you decide what is enough for you, something magical happens.Everything around you starts to be enough.
When we do that, we feel more accomplished, fulfilled and healthy.
We are finally free to enjoy our lives because we are not constantly trying to fix and improve them.
This is not how it goes.
Instead, we become paralyzed and uncertain, we seize up and feel like we cant step forward.
When you decide what is enough for you, you become a self-accepting person.
Then you start to behave like a self-accepting person.
Do you know what happens when you do that long-term?
You build a life that someone who loves themselves would live.
You have to do it now.
Successful, empowered, happy people attempt to tell us this all the time.
Only sometimes do we listen.
You are your own foundation.
This doesnt atrophy your ambition.
This makes you whole, more motivated and empowered than ever before.
