It's Tough Being Superman Put the cape away. It’s time to stop being Superman [or woman] .
Take a breath and ask-- What kind of expectations do you put on yourself? When did it become your responsibility to make everyone happy? Who are you afraid you'll disappoint?
Know what's missing in those questions? A total lack of concern for you....and an insanely unrealistic concern for everyone else.
I'm guessing you hold yourself up to standards that no human could have any hope of ever achieving. Then you condemn yourself when you don't. So there you are, trying to live up to these crazy expectations that you would never place on another.
Let go of this belief that you have to be super-human. Join the rest of us and just be human. Be a wonderfully flawed and fabulous human. And take care of you, first.
