18: My Own Best Critic

Hahahaha so guess what i just found out. I was posting my last blog called "shorts" and i saw the comment box at the bottom. I had never thought about leaving a comment for myself so i tried it to see if it would work. Sure enough i am the first person to comment on my own blog today. Kinda weird but i thought i could make a connection with that to life.
I often found that in sports my harshest critic was none other than myself. I knew what i did wrong and how i needed to fix it. I would get so frutrated with myself and realize later on that what i was mad about was not even that big of a deal. I also noticed this in school. If i didn't get a good grade on a test only i knew if i had given my best effort and usually i felt that i didn't. My point in this is that its important to ask for guidance and help from others, but its almost more important to take a step back and look at things for yourself. You know what you've done worng and you also know how you've done that same thing the right way in the past. Don't be afraid to be harsh on yourself because its better to be too caring than to not care enough.
In life its important to set goals. Since you are the only one who can set reasonable goals for yourself you are also the only one who can know if you've done your best to acheive those goals. Be honest with yourself because if you try and sugar coat it the only person that is hurt by it is yourself. So comment on your own blog every once in a while it helps.
