Daily Gratitude: What great advice that we all can use (if we’re honest). How often do we compare ourselves to others? Why? What do they say – something about you would be surprised at how little others think of us or about us for they are too worried about themselves. It seems to me that if we just put forth the effort to do the best we can, the other results will simply fall in place. Why put the extra anxiety on ourselves. I tried to be better than my idea of myself in this year’s vol state and that brought out so much good in me. It wasn’t about not being last or being better than anyone because I know that’s not in the cards. But I had a strategy and that was what I was aiming for. That made me a better person and I’m grateful for the opportunity!
