We all want to be successful in whatever we do, but sometimes we lose faith in ourselves. We get tired and we rush things, just to get it over and done. My motto has always been to do something to the best of my ability, but I have also learned that what I can't finish today, I can finish tomorrow.
I try not to rush things, because then I make more mistakes, but reality is that we all make mistakes! The only way that you can succeed is if you make mistakes.
We learn from our mistakes!
Life is so rushed these days, and we wish the days away. Our lives are overloaded with hundreds of things to do every single day, but do you make time for yourself?
Have you made ANY time for yourself today?
Take a breather! Just take a break! Even if you go and lock yourself in a little room in the house or just go sit outside in the sun just to feel the heat on your skin. Shut down your brain, and just relax.
If you are working towards a goal, there will be failures, but with hard work and determination you will succeed. What does it matter when you actually reach the end goal? If you reach it tomorrow, or the day after or next year, your goal will still be reached. You might enjoy the end result more if you are not so tired.
Life is not worth all this stress and rushing from place to place!
Time is precious and life is short!
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy......
Important and timely reminders of things I say to other people! Good to be on the receiving end, once in a while. Thanks @giantbear
I always feel my life is rush rush rush too. And I find myself enjoy the most when I have staycation in toilet. Geee.... Shh.... Don't tell my children. Lol.. :) sometimes I purposely bathed longer to get some breather. Hehe. I love your transformation Tuesday.
Gosh today I feel as if something is chasing me....I just can't focus on anything. Feels like I lost my marbles totally, so I am going to take a break from everything today after school and just vanish for a few hours. Pity I will have to come back though...lol
Such a timely reminder of making time for ourselves and not rushing from place to place, @giantbear! Thank you :)

This is so true. You can't succeed without making mistakes. So many people are afraid to try something new for fear of failure. Step out in faith and put in some effort.
Nope you can't. One of Thomas Edison's quotes:
I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
We live and learn, hopefully...
This is how I feel too
There are things I want to do, to finish, to achieve but I have come to a point where I also want to enjoy the journey, the day, life ... stop to smell the roses as and when
Loved this
It’s something I have been thinking of a lot lately and to read similar thoughts someone else feels good 😊

Goals are over hyped and only set people up for failure just like resolutions do at new years. Take the approach of destinations and then enjoy the journey of reaching the destination rather than the worry if you will make it to the "goal" on time.
That is the approach I take and so far I have enjoyed the ride.
Wonderful approach and it's amazing that you have survived. People always rush to get things done, but eventually things do happen...just like they should...lol!
howdy from Texas giantbear! haha, the first five days after a weekend are always the hardest! that is SO good..ha! and so true. Well at least with steemit there ARE no weekends!
But great post and full of words of wisdom and you are so right about success. We have to take it by force!
Take it by force, but take your time....I'm from South Africa...
howdy again giantbear! oh I see, South Africa, there are so many great steemians from South Africa here and they are all amazing! lol. What part and is it safe where you are? You're not a farmer are you?
