Second Guessing

My brain likes to do this thing where it second guesses itself. It makes a move and then later thinks “Why did I say that?” or “Ugh, that was so embarrassing”.

I had it happen today. And now my brain is just repeating the situation over and over in my head, trying to replay everything I did wrong again and again.

But we have to give ourselves grace.

And tell ourselves:

I tried my best.

I did the best I could with the situation at the time.

I am learning. I will get better.

It doesn’t really matter in the long run.

In 5 years it won’t matter.

Let go.
