Good Enough

All of my life, I've struggled feeling good enough. There have been times where I've been pretty confident and happy, felt pretty, skinny, good at something. But mostly...not good enough. And to be honest, I've felt okay lately. Not necessarily on top of things, but enough. Until yesterday. And I don't know exactly why or exactly when, or exactly what...but there it was again. Have you ever felt not good enough? Maybe it's that I'm in the process of putting together a book, and I'm unqualified. Or maybe that it's that I don't string my words together quite as beautifully…

Here We Go Again (Goals 2015)

Reviewing a Year of Goals (2014)

Last year, I decided I wanted to be intentional. As I said yesterday, I feel I did a fairly decent job of being intentional, and the GoalTracker app on my phone was a huge help keeping me on track. Unfortunately, I didn't accomplish everything quite to my maximum potential as I had hoped. I used to think that only partially meeting my goals meant that I had failed. This year though, I've realized that even only partially meeting my goals still means progress. Here's how: For My Family: Spend 2 hours per month with each child Okay, well this didn't…

If You Could Describe 2014 in One Word…

...what would it be? I've loved to ask this question for the past several years; I love to hear the answers that my friends and family have to give.  Some years are hard.  Others are wonderful.  I love to hear the stories that come with them. At the beginning of 2014, my one word was intentional. And it was intentional.  I met or came closer to meeting a lot of my goals, because I was intentional. But this year, I'd ultimately have to describe 2014 as transformational. We had pest control out to our house numerous times (an embarrassing yet…
