Activity

What quote, affirmation, or mantra helps you to keep going? 

Note: Feel free to share as many as you would like!

My Reflection

My favorite mantra is one that I created comparing myself to a butterfly! 

It goes like this:
Like a butterfly, I allow myself to transform – transform more into who I am every day. I will learn through the challenges and never give up. I acknowledge that transformation takes time and patience. I am ready.

Dear Perfectionist Quote Series

Posted on by SparklyWarTanks

Reflection

As a recovering perfectionist, I’m learning to overcome four obstacles: the importance of breaks and self-care, my worth and productivity, asking for help, and trying new things. As I move toward establishing a healthy version of myself, I’m slowly becoming aware of my needs and better ways to incorporate those needs when I take on projects or goals.

Affirmation: I don’t have to do things perfectly. My best is good enough.

Activity

Can you relate to being a perfectionist? How do you feel about being a perfectionist?

What affirmations can you practice to help when you find yourself wanting to achieve perfection?

What are some habits you can change or shift if you believe yourself to have unhelpful perfectionist tendencies?

The Process of Letting Go

  • What do you want to let go of?
  • What are you leaving behind?
  • How can you make space within yourself to feel peace and goodness?

Affirm that you are ready to let go and move on to make the space within yourself for what you deserve.

  • Hopelessness
  • Anxiety
  • What ifs and whys.
  • Toxic bonds

  • Rejection
  • Failed relationships
  • Confusion

I now welcome and affirm that I am deserving of good things. I leave behind ignorance, mistakes, and regret. I am ready for new beginnings.

I Am Resilient.

Posted on by SparklyWarTanks

If there is one word to define me, that word would be resiliency. My unrelenting will to keep coming back stronger and better is what makes me who I am.
I reflect.
I think.
I learn.
I evolve.
I move on.
It’s a kind of elasticity. Adaptation.
Evolution.
I face what is mine and I craft it into myself.
It is a part of me.
To become more of myself is the purpose and the goal.
And as I adapt and adjust, I leave a little of what was me behind.
I am not what I was but still is who I am.
Whatever was me is still me, but now I embrace what I hid. I am the shadow and id. The ego.
All that is me I learn to admire, I tame the impulse. I am my own choice. I choose me.
I think.
I speak.
I challenge.
I am my biggest challenge.
I face that challenge.
If I am not what I know I can be, I am failing my resiliency.

#IAM

Posted on by SparklyWarTanks

If I were to tell you that the lists of things you’ve done, the relationships you have, or the job titles you’ve held don’t make you who you are, would you believe me?
If I were to tell you that you are whole just because, would you think I’m wrong?No matter what we do or who we think we have to become we are fundamentally valuable and worth living every single day. It doesn’t matter how much we get done, or how much we’ve been through, every day we wake up we hold the power of our value and worth and that never changes.”I am” despite of anything that follows that statement.

Rite in the Rain Journaling: I Am Enough as I Am

Posted on by SparklyWarTanks

Using this @riteintherain journal and pen I will write in all types of weathers, in my bad rainy days and good sunny ones, on the days that are challenging, I will write.

Today I will remind myself that I am enough.
Enough on my own without the attention of others.
Enough even when it’s hard to get out of bed.
Enough to eat.
Enough to write.
I will always be enough.
