I’m doing my best, and that’s ok.
I’m trying my best at being a good friend but some days I’d rather curl up in my bed than get on another Zoom call. And I need to remind myself that I can’t be a good friend to others if I’m not good to myself first.
I’m trying my best at work but some days the littlest issues become my biggest stressors. And I need to remind myself that I’m learning new things in a very disconnected way.
I’m trying my best to be excited about every new day but some days I just can’t. And I need to remind myself that not all days have to be good.
We are in a pandemic, hitting the wall is real, burnout is real, not being able to cope with your regular daily life is real. Remind yourself that you’re doing your best, be okay with saying “no,” and breathe.
