The Overachiever’s constant need to say yes is merely an underlying insecurity. Here’s a better way to define your value. 

On this day of Thanksgiving, I’d like to offer us all the challenge of actively practicing gratitude.

Maybe the key to a healthier life is slowing down and accepting that what makes us special has nothing to do with how busy we feel every day.

Remember that every one of us is a unique mixture of experiences and culture, looking to do our very best with the resources at our disposal.

Arrival never even makes it into the equation.

Just be yourself and embrace your unique spot in this journey.

The unnecessary anxiety caused by this pursuit of perfection keeps us from enjoying those areas where we excel.

Accepting our current situation lessens our frustration with life’s issues and reminds us that this is part of being human.

Once you’ve figured out what makes you unique, I’d challenge you to embrace your weaknesses.
