"I Did That!"

Because I Didn't Stop

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished about a month ago 1 min read
You still managed to graduate!

“Reminder.

It doesn’t matter how slow you go

as long as you don’t stop”

This quote

can apply to any aspect

of our Lives.

We always Encourage our children

to never give up,

to keep trying

and to keep going.

How many of us

apply this to ourselves?

Sometimes,

slow progress

can be thorough progress,

but it is still Progress!

The expectation in society

can be ‘to get things done now and quickly’,

but this is not right or correct.

When we go at a slower pace

and see how we have progressed,

this helps to keep us

Motivated.

Also,

doing something at a slower pace

can build up

a much Stronger Foundation.

When we do things ‘at our own pace’,

they become achievable

which has such a Good effect

on our mental Health.

Stepping back

and seeing

what we can personally do

is so Good for our Self-Confidence,

and for Belief in Ourselves.

Slow progress

is

Persistent progress.

Again,

this can apply

to anything in our lives.

Our jobs.

School.

College.

Looking after and caring

for our families and loved ones.

The list goes on and on.

This is one way

in which we can feel

Good about ourselves,

to get the job done,

however slowly,

and then to look back and think:

“I did that!”

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
