            It’s might sound kinda silly but one thing that helped me be kinder to myself was thinking about how I treat others

            I’d never treat people I cared about how I was treating myself so trying to be as kind to myself as I was to others was the goal I set for myself

            And overtime it became easier and easier to be kind to myself about my short comings

            Yeah I may fail to do all the tasks I set out for myself today but I did accomplish somethings

            It may even be little things some days and other days it’s not a whole lot at all

            But the kinder I was to myself the more I found myself able to do the things I set out to do

            I still stumble some days but that’s okay

                I only wish I had learned it earlier in life

                That would have helped me a lot over the years

                So the next best thing is to help other people with it so that they don’t have to suffer as long as I did

              That reminds me of Rossmanns last video where he tells the story of how he discovered that he himself has also worth, especially compared to brokem apple computers.
