Celebrate every little step 🎉

There are times in life that are not easy, and especially then, it might be hard to zoom out and see the bigger picture. From my own experience I can say, that when I felt stressed, anxious, disappointed or sad, I was automatically critisizing myself as well. Focussing on what I couldn't do and often that were very big things. With practice I learned to break this things into little pieces, and if one of them succeeded, I could at least say "I did something good!"
Example on how to make something big as small as you want:
I want to be able to have close relationships
I want to be able to have relationships
I want be able to have contacts
I want to talk to someone
I want to text someone
I want to figure out whom to talk to
I want to know what to talk about
Every goal you achieve is reason enough to celebrate, because you took a step on the stairs towards your ultimate goal. Sometimes we might take a step back, or sit on the stairs to take a break, because hey, you know, you are carrying a backpack full of mental weight.
And if you can not find someone to cheer for you. I'm always here to celebrate.
Love,
