How to be PERFECT.

If the title of this post was accurate, I wouldn't be writing anything. This post would be empty.

I don't know how to be perfect, and frankly it sounds awfully exhausting doesn't it?  To execute perfectly every action, every role we play, every task and practice that brings us closer to our dreams... nah, I can't do it. I'm not cut out for it. Are you?

What I know we can do, however - with a little self-discipline - is to strive to do a little better than we did yesterday.

We can push ourselves a bit further. Let one less negative thought into our heads, one less sugary treat into our mouths, and less lazyness win us over. We can choose to practice isolations and drills for longer, or stretch farther. We can choose to eat blueberries and carrots for snacks instead of sweets. We can choose to think lovingly and forgive someone who has hurt us rather than try to bring them down, or let our anger ruin our day.

Even one little thing, one tiny improvement in one area, is enough to make the day a success.

Don't compare yourself to anyone else. Be stronger. Choose better. Forgive yourself for what you don't do, and push yourself to make the changes necessary. What will you improve today?

Enjoy your small successes :)

And don't bother with 'perfect'.
