I have read about adjusting your self-talk to third-person*, as this helps you be more compassionate than critical, but you take it an extra step. I like it.
*Rather than, "I really messed that up. I can't do this." I would say, "You missed the mark on that one, Steve, but at least you learned what doesn't work. So how will you change your approach?"
Your honesty and vulnerability are truly inspiring. Your words serve as a gentle yet powerful reminder to embrace our flaws, cultivate self-love, and find joy in the present moment. Wishing you continued growth and fulfillment on your path.
So many valuable insights, particularly your awareness that there's something to learn and give and receive every waking moment... but not so as to drive ourselves bonkers. It's both challenging and easy all at the same time!
I love the idea of being your own best friend.
