Self-Forgiveness is Key!

Forgive yourself for not knowing what you didn't know before you learned it. - Maya Angelou

The pressures that we all experience comes from many different areas in our life.  There is the pressure of being a good mother, a perfect wife, a great contributor, and a leader to our employers, and the list of pressure is endless.

But there is one pressure that we often forget about, and it's the pressure we all place on ourselves.  It's the pressure to be perfect, always to make the best decisions.  But we need to learn to forgive ourselves for the mistakes we have made. It's through those mistakes in which life lessons are learned.  

So when is the last time you have forgiven yourself?  Forgiven yourself for caving in to the pressure and the mistakes that you have made.  It is through the forgiveness of ourselves that we can see ourselves continue to flourish.

So the next time you want to beat yourself up about what you didn't know before, don't! Life is a journey. We will never get it all right.

Until Next Time, start with forgiving YOU!
